One of the ongoing stories in MMA the past couple of years is the problem of weight cutting in the sport and last weekend at UFC 216, that problem almost reared its head again. Kevin Lee initially missed weight for his main event fight against Tony Ferguson, coming in one pound over the 155-pound limit. He was given an extra hour to cut the last pound and managed to do so despite also battling a staph infection. Afterwards, Lee admitted the entire process was among his worst ever and “damn near killed” him, though he didn’t want to get into specifics.
