‘I spent the prime of my life as a warrior’ - Kevin Lee talks helmet head tattoo

Unfortunately for Kevin Lee, his planned return to the welterweight division has been pushed back a few weeks. But, the ‘Motown Phenom’ recently opened up on his new ink and how it’s provided added motivation for his combat sports career.

On the back of a brutal submission loss to Charles Oliveira in the UFC’s last pre-pandemic event in 2020, Lee spoke openly about his waning interest in mixed martial arts, suggesting he might even take a several years long hiatus from the sport.

“I think I’ve got to evaluate some things,” Lee told media members after his loss to Oliveira.
