with the lightweight championship on the line once again. Unlike their first encounter, their clash didn’t go beyond the second frame. “The Warrior” immediately pressed on the accelerator and attacked his foe with all sorts of punches and kicks, and very nearly put Ok away in the first five minutes. As soon as Ok started to fire back, Lee dropped him twice in a row. Ok survived to the bell, but it marked the beginning of the end for the defending champ.
Early into Round 2, Lee sniped his foe with a Superman punch followed by an overhand right that stunned Ok and put him on his knees. Seeing the finish was right around the corner, Lee spammed knees to the head to his opponent until referee Justin Brown jumped in to save Ok from more damage at 1:00 of the second round. In addition to avenging the decision defeat he suffered in 2021, Lee pocketed a $50,000 performance bonus by violently wresting his belt back.
