Christian Lee says there are no easy fights for Roberto Soldic in ONE Championship

‘The Warrior’ Christian Lee is excited to see welterweight MMA fighter Roberto Soldic make his promotional debut at ONE on Prime Video 5.

The long-awaited ONE debut of Croatian sensation ‘Robocop’ Roberto Soldic is finally set for December 3 against one of the toughest competitors in the division, Dagestani juggernaut Murad Ramazanov.

Keeping a watchful eye on his future competition in Soldic and Ramazanov, Christian Lee admitted to being surprised by ONE Championship’s decision to throw Soldic immediately into the deep end with an undefeated competitor in Ramazanov. ‘The Warrior’ told The MMA Super-Fan in an interview:

“Right away, his first fight in ONE Championship is going to be a test. I’m going to be paying close attention.”

Check out the interview below (quote from 1:30):

Christian Lee jumped onto the welterweight wagon a few months ago. He moved up a weight class after reclaiming his ONE lightweight world title back in August against South Korean slugger Ok Rae Yoon. Intending to capture double gold this November at ONE on Prime Video 4, Lee is keeping an eye on the biggest challengers in the welterweight division.

Roberto Soldic, in particular, has been the talk of the MMA world. The Croatian is a renowned two-division MMA champion under KSW, boasting 17 KOs in 20 overall victories.

Not only is he a proficient striker, but his judo is just as good as his standup. Fans are expecting Soldic to punch his ticket to a ONE world title soon.
