Priscilla Hertati Lumban Gaol clears Jakarta’s streets with a streak that’s almost as smooth as her gelato!
On Saturday, 17 November, Jakarta’s crowds will erupt when the Indonesian sweetheart Priscilla “Thathie” Hertati Lumban Gaol steps into the Stadium Istora for a showdown that could seal her place at the top of the women’s atomweight division. She’s up against the unbeaten Filipina powerhouse Angelie “D Explorer” Sabanal in the high‑octane event ONE: WARRIOR’S DREAM.
The Plan: Train, Train, Train… and Smile
“I’m juggling a jam‑packed year with a heart full of joy,” Priscilla told reporters. “I just keep repeating the same mantra: win. Win. Win.”
Three times a day, the 30‑year‑old warrior dialed into Siam Training Camp to leave nada but sweat on her gloves. She’s got a clear game plan: strike, anticipate takedowns, and let her own confidence do the rest.
Past Glory and a Sticky Moment
Her latest triumph over Jomary Torres at ONE: CONQUEST OF HEROES landed her yet another victory in the undefeated streak. She admired the simplicity of her strategy—no fancy tricks, just pure execution.
More than that, she confessed a hiccup: “For the first time in my seven cage entries, my coach was visibly frustrated because I missed a corner instruction.” She apologized, laughed, and vowed to double down on listening next time.
Ready for the Fight?
- Stance: Stand tall and strike first; if Sabanal counters, she’ll shift to ground.
- Momentum: “It all hinges on how quickly I pick up the fight’s rhythm.”
- Goal: Keep the undefeated run alive, aim for the ONE Atomweight title, and finally bring a trophy back home.
Fire‑Ablode Work Ethic
“Priscilla’s work ethic is a thing of awe,” a sidelined coach remarked. “Every bout improves, and the fans love the evolution.”
With 2018’s sixth bout behind her, her focus shifts: more wins, more trophies, and a future as the 2019 Atomweight champion. She continually whispers prayers for victory, keeps training “to make everyone around her proud.”
Feeling the Flow
“If destiny hand me the opportunity to fight the ONE Atomweight World Champion, I’ll be over the moon!” she chuckles, her determination sparkling in her eyes.
Jokes aside, the future looks promising. Fans, bring your popcorn—Priscilla Lumban Gaol is about to reign in Jakarta!
