Shinya Aoki will look to extend his second reign as ONE Championship’s lightweight king right around the corner, and he’ll do so against former teammate, Christian Lee.

The two will battle in the headliner of “Enter The Dragon”, which will go down on May 17th in Singapore. Recently the promotion released the trailer below for the contest.

The 35-year-old Aoki (43-8) reclaimed the lightweight title in March, by choking out Eduard Folayang at “A New Era”. The victory was the “Tobikan Judan’s” fourth in a row.

The 20-year-old Lee (11-3), meanwhile, is coming off back-to-back, stoppage wins over Kazuki Tokudome and Edward Kelly. The fighter has gone 3-2 in his last 5.

In the co-main event for “Enter The Dragon”, Nieky Holzken will face Regian Eersel for the inaugural ONE lightweight kickboxing world title.
