It’s funny because I was just thinking that if McKee goes 18-0, wins this whole thing, and cashes thats $1m, this might be the first time a Coker homegrown has panned out 100%. This would be a new milestone. He never got the chance to finish with Woodley or Cormier or the other SF guys but even so those guys had 1 or 2 pro fights and had wrestling pedigrees before mma. Coker literally found McKee as a 19 year old ammy. He would’ve taken this kid from ammy to championship level fighter from scratch. Dana has never done that.
I don’t think he was really that hard to find considering his dad is Antonio McKee who fought in the UFC and he’s been bred to be a fighter from a young age.
