Will Kevin Lee somehow trick us into thinking he’s elite again?

I have fallen for his schtick too many times

When he got triangles by Tony

Guillotined by the champ in a fight he was WINNING!

Gassed and subbed by RDA in another fight he was WINNING until he gassed.

That fight made me so angry. He would hurt RDA standing and then shoot for a takedown and waste his energy.

I am actually a fan but Kevin Lee finds a way to lose. He snatches defeat from the jaws of victory like he wants to lose.

Anyway with a few wins he’ll probably get a hype train behind him and Dana will have him back and pay him 500K.

Mark my words.
 
Despite contrary belief, Kevin Lee at his best is elite. Idk if he still has it in him anymore but the Kevin Lee that fought Oliveira is definitely elite no matter how much you don't like him.

He was down on scorecards against Olives and RDA so your comments about him winning until he wasn't isn't true.
 
Hopefully Kevin Lee tire himself out by punching Diego's face in after taking him down repeatedly.

No he’s fighting Diego. If you think that any performance shows anything your naive. This fight is a wash and will show nothing we didnt already know

Give him Nick Diaz and then CM Punk after Diego and he'll be on a 3 fight winning streak
 
Sorry, he not tricking any hardcore. He's explosive. But has a poor gas tank at both weights, is somewhat chinny, overeacts and has poor overall defense.

He has the ability to grapple and blow up guys, but after that its a gamble. Beating a 40 year old diego doesn't change any of this

No. He's fighting Diego Sanchez for a reason. That said, I'm curious how he looks gas tank wise at 165. Aside from that, his issues are known.

Considering he's fighting a 40 year old with serious questions of CTE, no

The guy had a small impressive run but he's disappointed mostly

First he wasn't "winning" any of those fights at best he was even until he was finished. Saying He was competitive would be acceptable.
Dana doesn't even pay some champions $500k. No matter what Lee does would ever get him that.
Finally most ppl could see Lee was never elite it was just hype and it was obviously just hype.

People like to write their own narratives to make themselves feel better or validate feelings.

LOL Lee isn’t and has never been elite. He’s a gatekeeper at best.
 
When Lee was in his prime he was elite. Unfortunately when some fighters start to falter they run into mental issues that make their downward spiral bigger than it might have been.
 
Y'all just think of anything and then make a thread on here
 
He was never elite. Best wins are Chiesa and Barboza. He was a fringe top 10 fighter at best.

Gillespie is a nice win too. I think his record in the UFC as well as his recent performances speak for themselves as far as his level as a fighter is concerned- some potential to break into the top ten with the right matchups but not a top fighter. He looked pretty bad against Diego too.
