Lee W 15 (KO 5) L 1 D 0 will be banking on his ring smarts and skills to try to beat reigning champion Fuentes at the latters home soil. Lee, was mandated by the OPBF officials to face Fuentes as is the highest available ranked challenger to the crown held by the Filipino Road Warrior.

The Japanese warrior and challenger is Japans current number 6 flyweight and is looking for an upset to further his young career. Lee will be enjoying a 3.5 inches height advantage and is three years older than the Filipino Fuentes.
