Smilla Sundell is wary of a bloodbath against Allycia Rodrigues when the pair collide for the ONE Championship strawweight Muay Thai title in Singapore.
The 18-year-old Swedish sensation will defend her title for the first time at ONE Fight Night 14 against atomweight queen Rodrigues.
The Brazilian left former interim champ Janet Todd battered and bloodied in her last appearance, also at Singapore Indoor Stadium, in a March title unification bout second from the top of the bill at ONE Fight Night 8, where she scored a unanimous decision.
