The ONE women’s atomweight world champion’s fight name was her computer background during her teenage years. In an interview with MMA Mania’s Drake Riggs, the Singaporean-American revealed how it all started:
Angela Lee excelled at everything she did as a youngster, much like she has done throughout her professional MMA career. The name ‘Unstoppable’ was a befitting nickname, but she didn’t think much of it until she needed a moniker before her amateur MMA debut.
She added:
The nickname has stuck with her ever since. It has been called out every time she makes an appearance on the global stage, and – come Saturday, March 26 at ONE – ‘Unstoppable’ will ring out in the Singapore Indoor Stadium once again.
Angela Lee will defend her atomweight world title against No.1-ranked contender Stamp Fairtex in the main event of ONE’s 10th-anniversary event.
Angela Lee preparing for her toughest world title defense yet
Angela Lee makes her return at ONE X after taking an extended break to focus on starting a family. The United MMA and Evolve MMA star has made it clear that the time off hasn’t interrupted her plans to stay on top of the division over which she reigns.
The 25-year-old martial artist is confident that her skill set will take her past the Thai superstar, who is aiming to become the promotion’s first-ever fighter to win a world championship in three sports.
Angela Lee’s wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu will be key to her leaving Singapore with a fifth successful world title defense.
Stamp has been on an impressive run of late, but if there is one athlete who could stop her in her tracks, it is ‘Unstoppable’.
