Allycia Hellen Rodrigues Defeating Big Names en Route to Title Defense

Allycia Hellen Rodrigues has been peerless in atomweight competition since arriving on the scene. In her promotional debut, she took the title from Stamp Fairtex. After a couple of years away, becoming a mother, she returned and cemented her position with a win over Janet Todd. In recent title defenses, Rodrigues has performed dominantly against Cristina Morales and Marie McManamon.

Rising Star Shir Cohen Ready to Wrest Title Away from Allycia Hellen Rodrigues

Cohen arrived on the scene last March with a second-round TKO win against Teodora Kirilova. Five months later, she wowed the Bangkok, Thailand, audience with a unanimous decision win over Francisca Vera. To earn her shot, she showcased her skill against one of the division’s hardest hitters, Amy Pirnie, taking the match after three hard rounds of work.

This electric atomweight matchup pits two near-flawless athletes colliding at their peak. For the first time in ONE action, one of the women will leave with a loss in atomweight competition. The World Championship collision will headline an exciting evening inside Lumpinee Stadium and put the women front and center as the evening’s main event.

ONE Fight Night 32 airs live on Prime Video on Friday, June 6. The action begins at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. The event is free for all Amazon Prime members in the U.S. and Canada.
