(PRESS RELEASE) -- On March 8, the ‘Legion’ is in for a treat when Lee enters the V3 cage for the first time with one of the most impressive resumes in all of amateur MMA. She is a state and national Golden Gloves champion, a highly decorated blue belt that won NAGA nationals and a NAGA world championship, a judo purple belt, a Kyokushin brown belt, and is the #1 ranked Muay Thai featherweight in the world by the IKF. She is also being considered for the US national kickboxing team that competes in Puerto Rico and Toronto later this year.
“I am so stoked about this fight with Jamie. We have reached out to her a couple of times to fight me. That never worked out, so when Chan (V3’s matchmaker) hit us up to fight her, I was really stoked. Jamie is a really solid fighter. I have nothing bad to say about her, it’s just that other than Amberlynn (Orr), she has never faced anyone on my level. She’s good, don’t get me wrong, we bought the pay per view between her and Amberlynn, expecting to eventually fight the winner. What I saw that night is what I see when I watch her other fights. She is overwhelmingly strong with her opponents. She is not however, as strong as me. I was a little offended when you asked me if her Golden Gloves background worried me. Jamie is a state Golden Gloves champion. Good for her. I beat Golden Gloves champions from all over the United States to win a title. As far as her wrestling, I actually competed against a division one college All-American that all of the other girls were petrified of. Not only did I stop her takedowns, I took her down and outwrestled her and ended up submitting her in under two minutes. So to be honest, I feel I have the advantage everywhere. I have an answer for anything she wants to try. I’m sure Jamie feels the same about herself. She is a confident fighter and with good cause. Two confident fighters always makes the best fights. Don’t be fooled by my losses. I’m one of the best 125 fighters in the country. So is she. Now we get to find out who moves on and who goes back to the drawing board.”
