What's frightening about Lee's grappling wizardry is how frantic and frenetic it looks as she keeps attacking with strikes and submission attempts constantly. And yet, upon close examination, the ONE Championship queen is actually highly technical and methodical. Only 'Unstoppable' can see the method to her madness as her opponents seem bewildered by her attacks.
Her constant aggression on the ground often makes her opponents move desperately, presenting Lee with her signature opening to take the back: the transitions.
In her historic bout with Stamp Fairtex at ONE X, the Canadian-American world champion overwhelmed the Thai sensation with constant grappling.
Never given any space to even think, Stamp was constantly on the defensive, forcing her to move and move until Lee got her on her belly, revealing her back. From there it was all academic. Angela Lee sunk in the choke and got the tap with mere seconds left in the round.
It's a familiar story as Angela Lee has finished five of her opponents with a rear-naked choke, including ONE women's strawweight world champion Xiong Jing Nan.

#1. Former ONE Championship lightweight world champion Shinya 'Tobikan Judan' Aoki
What more can be said that hasn't been said yet about former ONE Championship lightweight world champion Shinya 'Tobikan Judan' Aoki's legendary submission mastery? The Japanese MMA icon has 31 wins via submission, six of them via rear-naked choke.
Aoki rarely throws strikes as he heavily leans on his ground game. What's scary about the grappling attacks of 'Tobikan Judan', however, is that you know where he is going but you can't stop him from going there.
The best way to describe Aoki's grappling is that of a boa constrictor - it gets tighter and tighter the more you struggle to wiggle out. The slow and constricting way Aoki controls you limb-by-limb is second to none.
In his fight with ONE Championship lightweight James Nakashima, the moment Aoki got the back bodylock after ducking under a punch, the the fight was over. From back control, 'Tobikan Judan' slowly but surely worked his way to a standing rear-naked choke that wasn't even under the chin - he turned it into an excruciating neck crank.
