Supergirl Jackie Buntan vs Barbie — A Crazy Showdown!

Two judges scored it for Jackie Buntan. The third judge scored it a draw. On April 28th, 2021, at ONE on TNT IV, a 24-year-old Filipino-American striker out of Torrance, California stepped in against 30-year-old Belarusian veteran Ekaterina "Barbie" Vandaryeva. Three rounds. Three minutes each. Nine total minutes of strawweight Muay Thai. Buntan stood 162 centimeters. Vandaryeva stood 170. That eight-centimeter gap, plus the reach behind it, was the entire puzzle of the fight — and how Buntan solved it is the reason this bout still matters. Nobody got knocked out. What happened instead was a majority decision, which is not the same thing as a unanimous one, and the difference tells you more about those nine minutes than any highlight reel ever could. Twelve months later, Jackie Buntan was in Singapore fighting Smilla Sundell for the inaugural ONE Women's Strawweight Muay Thai World Championship — a belt that did not exist before the two of them fought for it.
