"I just have to force my game on him" - Alibeg Rasulov bares full confidence in his wrestling to overcome Christian Lee

Alibeg Rasulov is trusting in his tried-and-tested wrestling abilities to take the ONE lightweight MMA world championship from 170-pound and welterweight MMA king Christian Lee in the main event of ONE Fight Night 26 on Friday, Dec. 6.

Speaking exclusively with the world's largest martial arts promotion, the Hyperion Fighters product shared:

"I think that Christian Lee has not yet met an opponent like me. My wrestling is better than his. I will force my wrestling on him. He has had a long delay, and I think he will get tired more than I. I just have to force my game on him."

Rasulov's talent for wrestling his opponents down to the ground has played a vital role in his romp throughout the regional scene, where he posted 13 victories before signing with ONE earlier this year.

The 32-year-old sought to do the same in his promotional debut against former lightweight MMA king Ok Rae Yoon at ONE Fight Night 23 this past July, but the South Korean star repeatedly stuffed his takedown attempts.

In response, Rasulov flaunted his surprisingly stellar striking abilities, which ultimately gave him the unanimous decision win.

"To all the fans, I'm looking forward to going out there and putting on a show for you guys. You guys can expect to see a quick, clean finish and if not, I guarantee it's going to be a war."
