Challenger Alibeg Rasulov insists he’s faced better fighters than Christian Lee in Dagestan: “I meet them daily”

ONE lightweight MMA world title challenger Alibeg Rasulov is the least bit fazed about Christian Lee's incredible career resume.

The undefeated Turkish powerhouse will take on the reigning two-division MMA world champion this coming Friday in the main event of ONE Fight Night 26: Lee vs. Rasulov on Prime Video.

Despite facing the man with the most finishes in the promotion's history, Rasulov remains confident that he will leave Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium as the new ONE lightweight MMA world champion on Dec. 6.

Turns out, Rasulov's unshakable belief in himself comes from his experience training with killers in Dagestan on a daily basis.

The 32-year-old warrior told ONE in an exclusive interview ahead of the biggest fight of his career:

"Dagestan has a lot of fighters who are of a higher level than Christian Lee. And I meet them daily at sparring."

Alibeg Rasulov has yet to meet an adversary he couldn't beat in 14 career matches. However, he'll be facing arguably his biggest challenge yet in the form of the well-rounded Christian Lee.

The Singaporean-American double champion is a true martial artist, who's a handful for anybody may it be in striking or grappling.

Alibeg Rasulov says Christian Lee will just be another name on his win list

Alibeg Rasulov is not underestimating Christian Lee nor is he diminishing his remarkable accomplishments.

However, the Turkish machine is hell-bent on realizing his own dream of becoming a world champion in the home of martial arts. As far as the undefeated juggernaut is concerned, it's nothing personal and the two-weight champ is simply in his way.

The Hyperion Fighters representative confidently told ONE:

“I have a zero-loss record, and losing is not in my plans.”
