"I don't see this getting out of the first round" - Christian Lee predicts quick finish for Adrian inside the Impact Arena

Two-division ONE world champion Christian Lee is certain his younger brother, Adrian, will need only less than five minutes to wrap up his pro-MMA debut at ONE 167 on June 7. That evening, the youngest of the Lee siblings makes the long walk to the Circle to compete for the first time.

His promotional debut and first professional MMA fight will come against Australia's Antonio Mammarella in a lightweight tie inside the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.

Offering his predictions on Adrian Lee's impending clash, the ONE lightweight and welterweight MMA world champion had this to say during a short chat with the South China Morning Post (SCMP):

"Absolutely, I think he's gonna put on a show. I think he's, you know, going to bring the fight right to his opponent, and I don't see this getting out of the first round."
