That evening, Lee moves up a division to challenge Korean “Brazen” Abbasov for the ONE Welterweight World Title. And if he scores victory in the main event clash, he’ll become one of very few “double-champs” in ONE.

The dreams of Christian Lee have turned into reality

Christian Lee’s dedication has turned his dreams into reality

Dreams certainly do come true. With the right amount of hard work, of course.

I’m extremely grateful for the opportunity to be fighting for the welterweight title,” the four-time ONE Lightweight World Champion said.

I’m sure there are other organizations who would want the champion to go and get a few fights in the welterweight division before going for a title. But I also feel like everything lined up well to make this super-fight happen.
