Tiffany Teo ready to test herself in a new weight class at ONE 161
When Tiffany Teo steps into the Circle at ONE 161, it will be at a brand new weight class. The former strawweight title challenger will make the move to atomweight, meeting ONE Women’s Atomweight World Grand Prix finalist Ritu Phogat.
Discussing her drop to atomweight, Teo said that she feels no change in her strength despite the 10-pound weight difference between strawweight and atomweight.
While ‘No Chill’ admits she doesn’t necessarily understand how she keeps her strength and conditioning the same despite the significant weight difference, it gives her a boost of confidence heading into her upcoming matchup.
