After all, the ONE women’s atomweight world champion is now fighting for something much bigger than herself. She’s now a proud mother to an adorable one-year-old, Ava Marie. As such, Northcutt believes that Lee’s new bundle of joy is the missing piece for ‘Unstoppable’ to finally become a two-division ONE world champion.

The 29-year-old American shared this in an exclusive interview with ONE Championship:

Colbey Northcutt, whose younger brother Sage also fights under the ONE banner, is in the same boat as Lee since she also recently welcomed a daughter.

The wonders of motherhood are truly something to behold, and its positive effects clearly show on Angela Lee.

Northcutt added:

Obviously, the narrative heading into the rubber match is about who has improved more between Xiong and Lee since the last time they fought in 2019. The two heated rivals are currently at a stalemate, as they each have a fifth-round stoppage victory over the other.

As far as Northcutt sees it, the Singaporean-American’s newfound inspiration will power her to victory.

Ken Lee shares Angela Lee’s balancing act as a mother and a fighter

As admirable as Angela Lee is for being a ‘mom-champ’, it’s not always rainbows and butterflies.

Her father, Ken Lee, can attest to this.

The Lee patriarch watched her juggle her duties as a mother and her responsibilities as one of the best martial artists in the world. How she has managed to do both while not compromising the other is nothing short of remarkable.
