The winner is positioned to challenge Allycia Hellen Rodrigues, with the champion slated to face Phetjeeja on March 13.

Overview

  • Shir Cohen returns to Lumpinee Stadium on February 20 in her first bout since withdrawing from two 2025 title dates due to injury.
  • Vero enters her first ONE main event after a first-round TKO of Junior Fairtex and a split-decision win over Li Mingrui built fresh momentum.
  • Cohen cites speed and footwork after a long camp at Fairtex, while Vero believes her heavier hands and clinch strength can decide the fight.
  • Cohen brings an 11-1 record and a 3-0 run in ONE that includes snapping Amy Pirnie’s 22-fight streak in October 2024.
  • The card streams live on YouTube starting at 6:30 a.m. ET and features a $100,000 contract opportunity, with a flyweight Muay Thai co-main of Denkriangkrai vs. Petapichat plus returns for Nakrob Fairtex, Yoshida Kosei, and Chabakaew Sor KanJanchai.
