Angela Lee Retires from MMA to Focus on Mental Health Non-Profit, Fightstory

The former champion finds greater fulfillment in helping others through her organization, established in memory of her late sister.

Former MMA champion Angela Lee has retired from professional fighting to focus on her non-profit organization, Fightstory, which aims to help people, especially fellow martial arts athletes, dealing with depression and suicide.
The organization was established in honor of Lee’s younger sister Victoria 'The Prodigy' Lee, who tragically passed away in late 2022.
Lee, who had a successful career in MMA with a six-year-long reign as ONE Championship's first-ever atomweight world champion, has ruled out a potential return to fighting.
In her post-fighting career, Lee has found fulfillment in helping others through Fightstory, stating that it's 'the greatest purpose' she could have.
Fightstory has been well-received by fellow athletes and Lee is grateful for all the positive comments and support.
