The 18-year-old phenom, who announced himself to the martial arts world with a stunning 16-second knockout debut in February 2023, is now gearing up for his ninth appearance in the organisation when he faces Diego Paez at ONE Fight Night 32 on 7 June.
Whilst most teenagers his age are still figuring out their future, Ghazali is already mastering the art of celebrity management. The young striker has had to adapt quickly to his newfound status as one of ONE's most promising talents.
"To keep it short, the more I do it, the better I get at handling fame, deals, and everything that comes with my growing career in ONE Championship," Ghazali said.
The evolution hasn't been without its challenges, but Ghazali's mature approach to growth has served him well. His expanded team creates a professional infrastructure that helps him balance his fighting career with increased obligations.
"I have a bigger team now. I have a manager. I have photographers. I have a whole team behind me now. So it's a lot easier than it was before. All this comes with experience," the teen said.
What sets Ghazali apart from many young athletes is his keen eye for personal presentation. The teenager has developed a sophisticated fashion sense that mirrors his precision in the ring, favouring classic elegance over flashy trends.
"I love looking good. I love styling myself up, and I love having a style that makes people notice me. I love being presentable," Ghazali said.
Ghazali takes particular pride in his recent acquisition – a custom three-piece pinstripe suit that exemplifies his refined taste.
"It is a pinstripe three-piece suit. It's a nice suit. I love the suit. It fits me so well, and I can't wait to wear it for a press conference soon," the Malaysian-American said.
As he continues building his fighting legacy, Ghazali proves that style and substance can coexist beautifully.
