Al Iaquinta always seems to fly under the radar when discussion turns to the Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight division. Perhaps now he has everyone’s attention.
“The Ultimate Fighter” Season 15 finalist persevered when met with adversity and outstruck Kevin Lee to a unanimous decision in the UFC on Fox 31 main event on Saturday at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee. All three cageside judges scored it for Iaquinta: 48-47, 48-47 and 49-46. The five-round battle served as a rematch to their UFC 169 encounter on Feb. 1, 2014, which “Ragin’ Al” also won by decision.
