Much like she did eight years ago, Ye Ji Lee scored another high-profile upset victory over a top-ranked Japanese opponent tonight at Deep: “125 Impact” in Tokyo, Japan. The 25-year-old defeated Deep and Deep Jewels Microweight Champion Saori “Little Giant” Oshima in an atomweight bout.
Lee, who first rose to fame in Japan in March 2017 when she shockingly defeated former Deep and Smackgirl champion Satoko Shinashi, nullified Oshima’s submission attempts tonight and largely controlled the grappling battles en route to winning two out of three rounds on the scorecards.
