Kevin Lee on MMA’s weight-cutting issues: ‘Everybody is kind of waiting for somebody to die’

Kevin Lee has had just about enough of extreme weight cutting in mixed martial arts.

The UFC lightweight has been among the most vocal fighters in the sport about the issue of weight cutting by means of severe dehydration. Lee has been pushing for the UFC to institute a 165-pound division for more than a year at this point. And he does not plan on quieting down.

“Everybody knows that this weight-cutting thing is a problem, but nobody is coming up with no f*cking solutions,” Lee told Luke Thomas on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour.
