Desperate for sports? Kevin Lee wants to entertain on tonight’s UFC card

Kevin Lee is currently the envy of all American athletes.

The longtime local lightweight, who now holds his training camps at the famed Tristar Gym in Montreal, will be one of the few who actually gets to compete this weekend. The UFC’s decision to move forward with its fight schedule, despite cancellations from every other major sports league, means today's Fight Night card from Brasilia, Brazil, is a go.

Lee will face Charles Oliveira in the main event of the 12-fight card, which airs starting at noon on ESPN+.

“I’m good with fighting in an empty arena,” Lee tweeted earlier this week.
