Janet Todd was thrust right into the fire in her ONE Championship debut and now, having emerged from the crucible, she can admit she felt the heat.
On Wednesday, the reigning ONE atomweight kickboxing champion fights Anne Line Hogstad in a co-main event muay Thai bout at ONE on TNT 2 in Singapore. It will be one of the most high-profile bouts of Todd’s fighting career, which began 12 years ago and has since spanned four continents.
Todd, 35, is well-aware of the increased exposure and expectations that come with having a title around her waist and a fight set to be broadcast on U.
