Singaporean strawweight contender Tiffany Teo returned from a 15-month layoff and forced herself back into championship contention with a stoppage win over surging Japanese contender Ayaka Miura at “ONE Championship 109: King of the Jungle” on Feb. 28.

Competing on home soil at Singapore Indoor Stadium, Teo (9-1) used her striking skills to good effect as she nullified Miura’s dangerous ground game at source by walking the judoka onto her snapping jab, while punishing the Japanese contender with powerful leg kicks before eventually finishing her with strikes.

Miura (10-3) initially had success by closing the distance and taking Teo to the mat and establishing her trademark scarf hold position. But unlike in previous fights, Miura was unable to transition to a fight-ending submission and Teo eventually worked her way free.

With the action on the feet, Teo used her reach advantage to work her striking to good effect as she gradually wore down Miura over the three-round duration before securing a late TKO finish with just 15 seconds remaining.

“No Chill’s” victory in Singapore puts her right back in contention for a title fight rematch with the woman who defeated her in the inaugural ONE women’s strawweight title fight, China’s reigning champion Xiong Jing Nan, who was cageside to watch Teo’s victory in person.
