The upcoming ONE 168: Denver card on Sept. 6 will not only feature two world title fights in the card's main and co-main events, but it will also see the comeback of two teenage phenoms, Adrian Lee and Johan Ghazali.

Lee is scheduled to face Nico Cornejo in a lightweight MMA match, while Ghazali is slated to battle Josue Cruz in a flyweight Muay Thai contest at the Ball Arena in Colorado.

Before the two rising stars showcase their talent in front of American fight fans, Sportskeeda MMA recently posted their highlights on Instagram:

The video highlighted the best moments of 'Jojo' and 'The Phenom', where they obliterated their opponents in the world's largest martial arts organization. Lee had a dream professional debut on June 7, submitting Antonio Mammarella in the second round of their match at ONE 167.

On the other hand, Ghazali has defeated five of his six opponents in the promotion and has an 80 percent finish rate.
