On 24th September at ONE Championship: Revolution, siblings Christian and Victoria Lee will be fighting on the same card. Their older sister is ONE Women’s Atomweight Champion, Angela Lee.
Christian Lee, the reigning ONE Lightweight World Champion, will defend his title against Ok Rae Yoon of South Korea, while pankration gold medallist Victoria Lee will be fighting in her third ONE Championship bout, which will be against Victória Souza of Brazil.
Here to Play: What are your favourite memories of ONE Championship?
Christian: My favorite memory of fighting in ONE Championship was winning the lightweight world title against Shinya Aoki in a sold-out stadium in Singapore with all of my family in attendance. And I won’t forget watching my sister Angela win the inaugural Women’s Atomweight World Championship over Mei Yamaguchi in an exciting five-round war.
Victoria: I enjoy the whole experience of fighting with ONE Championship – fight week, the event itself and being able to do it all with my family.
Here to Play: How are your upcoming fights at ONE Championship: Revolution different?
Christian: Going into my next match-up, I am more motivated than ever, now that I’m a dad and competing alongside my sister, Victoria.
Victoria: I am very excited too to be fighting on the same card as my brother.
Here to Play: ONE Championship will soon celebrate its 10th anniversary. How does that make you feel?
Christian: I’m very excited for ONE Championship’s 10th anniversary. The company has grown so much in the last 10 years and I’m so grateful to be competing for such a great organisation.
Victoria: I’m grateful to be fighting for an organisation that’s been around for 10 years.
