The move prompted referee Olivier Coste to penalize Lee with a red card after Kelly was unable to continue for the remainder of the fight.

Honorio Banario didn’t have the same fate as his teammate after he lost to Amir Khan via submission.

Khan (11-3) got hold of Banario (13-7) and put the former ONE featherweight champion in a rear-naked choke earning the submission win 4:34 into first round.

The loss snapped Banario’s five-fight winning streak dating back to April of 2016.
