Angela Lee's quest to become double champion at the One Championship: Heart Of A Lion was canceled because the fighter was injured. A fight for the unification of the title between the bantamweight between Bibiano Fernandes and Kevin Belingon was elevated to the rank of the main event.
A CEO, Chatri Sityodtong, issued the following statement on this topic via Facebook:
"I made the decision to remove Angela from the map, despite his intransigence in staying in the world title fight against world champion ONE, one of the two straw weights, Jingnan Xiong. We all know that Angela is a warrior with an indestructible spirit. However, she suffered a serious back injury in training last week and a severe disc herniation; she was unable to walk a few days ago. Doctors suspect the injury occurred last year when Angela's car crashed five times on the highway in an imminent death accident. If it was up to her to decide, she would still be competing this week, even if it meant walking in the cage with crutches. In fact, she always insists on competition. However, safety is ONE's top priority. On a personal level, I care deeply about the long-term health of our athletes and I will never put our athletes in compromising situations. Please, join me in wishing Angela a speedy recovery for complete health! "
It is not yet known if the fighter will be rescheduled or if the competitors will separate.
A championship: Heart Of A Lion will be held on Friday, November 9 at Indoor Indoor Stadium in Kallang, Singapore, in the lead: Bibiano Fernandes and Kevin Belingon. Fightful provides live coverage of the event, which is broadcast live on the One application.
