I don't understand how you can score points on the cards with your defense and running backwards." "But I really feel like I was the one who was more consistently pushing forward, landing heavy strikes. "Xiong came out really strong in the first round," Lee said. ONE CEO Chatri Sityodtong also told media that he did not agree with the judges' decision. Lee said afterward that she thought she won the fight. "I really enjoyed fighting this evolved, better version of you." "Thank you for putting on this fantastic, spectacular match," Xiong said in her postfight interview, translated from Mandarin.
The fight itself was one of the best women's MMA battles of the year, a back-and-forth struggle in which both women had their moments and Lee battled back from a significant Xiong beating in the first round. Xiong and Lee are two of ONE's best and most popular women's fighters, and this was a key headliner on the promotion's second card on Amazon Prime Video in North America. This was Xiong's seventh successful title defense. Lee remains ONE's women's 115-pound champ.
Xiong beat Lee via fifth-round TKO in March 2019 in a 125-pound title fight and Lee won the second fight via fifth-round submission at 115 pounds six months later. With the victory, Xiong retained her ONE women's 125-pound title and went to 2-1 against Lee in their trilogy. Jingnan Xiong nearly finished Angela Lee several times in a dominant first round and then did enough the rest of the way to earn a unanimous-decision victory Saturday in the main event of a ONE Championship card in Singapore.
