"This is my time" - Antonio Mammarella pumped to dish out career-best display against Adrian Lee

Blue-chip MMA prospect Adrian Lee will make his ONE Championship debut at ONE 167 on June 7, but his opponent, Antonio Mammarella, is raring to show out as well.

The Australian standout, who will also be making his promotional debut, is a dangerous opponent for Lee due to his experience in the amateur ranks and can fight effectively from any position - something he believes could get him the win.

Speaking with ONE Championship, Antonio Mammarella spoke on what fans can expect from him inside the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand:

​

"I obviously respect [Adrian] Lee and his family, as they are great fighters, but this is my time, and it's even better to have a big name in front of me, so everyone will see what I'm capable of."

Mammarella's words ring true in a way as many fans have been eager to see how Lee will fare under the bright lights of the world's largest martial arts promotion against elite-level competition.

Fighting out of the MMA Family Fight Team in Australia, Mammarella would love nothing more than to make his mark in the promotion by beating the high-profile youngster.

As the two ONE Championship debutants wrap up their respective training camps, the Prodigy Training Center athlete was not against giving Antonio Mammarella his flowers.

Lee recently told ONE Championship what makes the 24-year-old a strong opponent:

​

"I got a chance to watch [his pro debut] fight. He was pretty decent in striking and wrestling, and I think those would probably be his strengths."

ONE 167 will air live and for free to all active Amazon Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.
