Teenage prodigy Adrian Lee says he was destined to become an MMA fighter: “Ever since I learned how to walk”

18-year-old phenom Adrian Lee believes it's his destiny to step inside the ONE Championship cage and follow in the footsteps of his world champion siblings.

Lee is the younger brother of former ONE women's atomweight MMA world champion 'Unstoppable' Angela Lee and reigning and undisputed ONE lightweight and welterweight MMA world champion 'The Warrior' Christian Lee.

The Lee family is ONE Championship royalty—a family of lifelong martial artists. Like all the Lee children, Adrian has been training on the mats since he was a toddler.

Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Lee talked about his humble beginnings as a fighter.

The 18-year-old said:

"I've been on the mats ever since I learned how to walk. I think I started training around three years old."

Lee is set to make his professional mixed martial arts and ONE Championship debut early next month. The 18-year-old will lock horns with Australia's Antonio Mammarella at ONE 167: Stamp vs. Zamboanga on Prime Video. The event broadcasts live from the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.

Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all the action live and absolutely free on Friday, June 7th, U.S. primetime, via an active Amazon Prime Video subscription.
