A new breed of strawweight MMA contenders collide at ONE Fight Night 41: Rodrigues vs Phetjeeja on Prime Video.
Lee “The Flash” Seung Chul welcomes Fabio “The Giant” Henrique to the world’s largest martial arts organization in an explosive clash that goes down live in U.S. primetime on March 13 from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Lee possesses the dynamic talent and undeniable charisma to become South Korea’s next MMA superstar.
Faltering in his professional debut in 2020 didn’t deter him but instead ignited a relentless drive to improve. The 27-year-old responded by reeling off 11 consecutive victories since that setback.
He showcased his elite abilities on the global stage, opening his ONE account with back-to-back vicious TKO victories over Moises “The Lion King” Lois Ilogon and Pham “Nam Chou” Van Nam.
However, “The Flash” truly announced his arrival at ONE Friday Fights 116 last July against a high-profile opponent. There, he displayed a complete all-around game to outclass respected divisional mainstay Hiroba Minowa via unanimous decision.
Lee carried that momentum into his defining moment against Cueng Naibaho, delivering a first-round submission victory that earned him a life-changing six-figure contract at ONE Friday Fights 136 last December.
Now a full-fledged member of ONE’s main roster, he aims to extend his unbeaten promotional record, but the task won’t come easy.
On the other side stands a ONE debutant eager to hijack the South Korean’s momentum.
Despite standing just 5-foot-2, Henrique carries his “Giant” moniker with pride and fights far above his stature.
The 33-year-old Brazilian’s imposing grappling arsenal has powered him to an impressive 14-1 record on the South American MMA circuit.
The São Paulo native brings a nine-fight winning streak into his ONE debut. His finishing instincts shine through with six victories by submission and three by TKO, making him an intriguing addition to the promotion’s talent-rich strawweight division.
When these hungry young stars meet on March 13, both will look to establish themselves as serious threats.
The winner will take a significant step forward in the 125-pound ranks ruled by undisputed ONE Strawweight MMA World Champion Joshua “The Passion” Pacio.
