Korea’s Lee Captures Third Consecutive Grand Prix Title in Abidjan
Dec 2017-- Lee triumphed 14-13 VS Alexey Denisenko tense match at the Ivorian city’s Palais de Sports de Treichville.
Lee Dae-hoon won an unprecedented third consecutive World Taekwondo Grand Prix Final title in Abidjan today after beating Russia’s Alexey Denisenko in the men’s under 68 kilograms gold medal match.
The final was a dream match-up as Dae-hoon Lee face off against Alexey Denisenko of Russia. Lee is super-fit and a brilliant technician with a wide arsenal, while the Russian is one of the trickiest fighters in the sport, with a wide range of high-flying and unorthodox techniques. But the match was particularly special for Lee. He has already won two Grand Prix Finals – in Mexico City 2015 and Baku, Azerbaijan in 2016 – meaning that a win in Abidjan would gave him a hat trick and Lee triumphed 14-13 VS Alexey Denisenko.
