Christian Lee will grace ONE Championship‘s Circle for the first time in nearly two years. The two-division World Champion has been absent since winning the welterweight crown in November 2022. On Friday, November 8, “The Warrior” returns to defend his ONE Lightweight MMA World Championship against Alibeg Rasulov at ONE 169: Atlanta.
A winner in eight of his last nine outings, Lee bolted to the top of the MMA with finish after finish. He avenged his lone loss to Ok Rae Yoon in dominant fashion with a second-round TKO before challenging and defeating Kiamrian Abbasov for the ONE Welterweight MMA World Title.
