“The flow, dance, creativity” – Luke Lessei on the similarities of his fighting style with fellow American Eddie Abasolo

American Muay Thai phenom ‘The Chef’ Luke Lessei is ready to sizzle in his ONE Championship debut, and he’s looking at putting on a show much like his compatriot, Eddie Abasolo.

Abasolo employs a very unorthodox style of fighting, which incorporates loads of movement that tends to confuse his opponents. For anyone who hasn’t seen him fight, Lessei says he and Abasolo share a similar fighting style.

Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Lessei gave fans a glimpse of what he could offer in the world’s largest martial arts organization.

‘The Chef’ said:

“You can compare me to Eddie [Abasolo], because people obviously people know him more than they know me. So with the flow like, it's like a dance, the creativity [we’re the same].”

Whether or not that translates to a victory in his ONE Championship debut remains to be seen. We shall soon find out.
