By The Numbers: Christian Lee vs. Timofey Nastyukhin


Timofey Nastyukhin, like all driven prizefighters, lusts for the kind of power and influence Christian Lee now possesses.

The Russia Top Team product will challenge Lee for the undisputed One Championship lightweight title when the two men lock horns in the One on TNT 2 headliner this Wednesday at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang Singapore. Nastyukhin has recorded four wins across his past five outings and enters the match on a two-fight winning streak. He last appeared at One Championship “Inside the Matrix 2,” where he laid claim to a unanimous decision over Pieter Buist in October. Lee, meanwhile, has rattled off five straight victories. He has not competed since he took care of Iuri Lapicus with first-round punches at One Championship “Inside the Matrix” on Oct. 30.
