Angela Lee will have to wait a little longer to try to make history at ONE Championship.
The atomweight champion was set to face strawweight titleholder Jingnan Xiong in the main event of Friday’s ONE Championship: Heart of the Lion at the Singapore Indoor Stadium in Singapore, but ONE CEO Chatri Sityodtong announced on Monday that Lee was declared medically unfit to fight after suffering an injury.
”I have made the decision to pull Angela off the card, despite her adamance to compete still in the world title fight against ONE strawweight world champion Jingnan Xiong,” Sityodtong wrote on Facebook.
