Background
After 11 months of breathtaking martial arts action, ONE Championship is finishing its 2024 Prime Video events calendar with ONE Fight Night 26: Lee vs. Rasulov, a blockbuster showcase that will air live in U.S. primetime on Friday, December 6, from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
In the headline attraction, two-division MMA king Christian “The Warrior” Lee is making his long-awaited return to the ring.
The Singaporean-American superstar, who spent the past two years on the sidelines, will defend his ONE Lightweight MMA World Title and look to further cement his legacy as the most dominant fighter in divisional history.
But undefeated Turkish rising star Alibeg Rasulov is determined to score the upset, maintain his spotless record, and leave the iconic venue with 26 pounds of gold.
A ONE Lightweight World Championship bout between current champion (also the ONE Welterweight Champion and ONE Lightweight World Grand Prix winner) Christian Lee and Alibeg Rasulov is expected to headline the event. The bout was originally scheduled for ONE 169, but was moved to this event for unknown reasons.
A ONE Women's Atomweight Submission Grappling World Championship rematch between current champion (also multiple-time IBJJF World Champion) Mayssa Bastos and former champion Danielle Kelly is expected to serve as the co-main event. They previously met at ONE Fight Night 24 in August 2024, where Bastos won the title by unanimous decision.
Cole Abate is scheduled to make his promotional debut against former two-time ONE Lightweight World Champion Shinya Aoki in a lightweight submission grappling match at the event.
Diego Paez was expected to make his promotional debut against Nakrob Fairtex in a flyweight muay thai bout. However, Paez withdrew due to injury and was replaced by Kongthoranee Sor.Sommai.
