The Lee family's legacy in ONE Championship continues to grow, as 18-year-old prospect Adrian Lee prepares to step back into the ring on September 6 at the Ball Arena in Denver. Lee will face off against undefeated pro-Nicolas Cornejo in a thrilling lightweight bout, marking his second fight under the ONE Championship banner.


Following in the footsteps of his accomplished siblings, Christian and Angela Lee, Adrian is determined to make a name for himself in the MMA world. His impressive debut in June, where he secured a submission victory over Antonio Mammarella, has set the stage for his upcoming battle against Cornejo.


Cornejo, a wrestling specialist and coach at Warrior Built MMA, boasts an impressive 5-0-1 amateur record and a 2-0 pro record. The matchup promises to be an electrifying clash of styles, with Lee's submission expertise facing off against Cornejo's wrestling prowess.


The Lee vs. Cornejo bout joins a stacked lineup for ONE Championship's return to the US, despite the main event facing a setback due to atomweight champion Stamp Fairtex's knee injury. The event is shaping up to be an unforgettable night of MMA action, and Adrian Lee is ready to make his mark. Will he follow in his family's footsteps and emerge victorious? Only time will tell.
