No longer facing the grueling weight cut that came with fighting at 155 pounds, Kevin Lee expected to be a new man in his welterweight debut at UFC Rochester on Saturday night.
Instead, “The Motown Phenom” faded down the stretch and succumbed to an arm-triangle choke submission from Rafael dos Anjos at the 3:47 mark of the fourth round in the evening’s headliner at Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, N.Y. Once viewed as one of the sport’s top rising stars, Lee has lost three of his last four Octagon appearances.
Thank you for the support, I feel I really got some real people behind me now.
