On Friday, September 24, in the main event of ONE Championship: Revolution, Ok Rae Yoon challenges reigning ONE lightweight world champion Christian ‘The Warrior’ Lee for the world title.
The long and rangy 30-year-old from Busan believes he will walk away from the arena after all has been said and done with the lightweight strap around his waist.
Ok earned his spot alongside Lee by defeating two of ONE Championship’s biggest names.
In April of this year, Ok upset former ONE featherweight world champion Marat ‘Cobra’ Gafurov by decision to take his #5 spot in the rankings. He then returned two weeks later and scored arguably the biggest win of his career, a one-sided unanimous decision over former UFC champion and legend Eddie ‘The Underground King’ Alvarez.
Against Christian Lee, Ok Rae Yoon is facing perhaps his toughest test yet. But the South Korean knows exactly what to expect against his younger adversary.
Ok Rae Yoon: the last man standing
Ok Rae Yoon is the last man in the top five at lightweight that Lee hasn’t faced and defeated. Needless to say, Lee is certainly the favorite heading into this matchup.
The man they call the ‘Legend Killer’ knows what’s at stake in this fight, and is ready to rise to the occasion.
