Kevin Lee, Michael Chiesa get into brawl at UFC Summer Kickoff press conference

DALLAS — Lightweight Michael Chiesa did not like what Kevin Lee had to say at the UFC Summer Kickoff press conference so he charged across the stage at his opponent before the two engaged in a near brawl.

It all started when the two fighters, who meet in Oklahoma City on June 25, started jawing back and forth at each other on stage.

“I like Mike. I like Chiesa. He’s a good guy. I’m doing him a favor. I’m gonna change his life on June 25,” Lee shouted at Chiesa. “His whole life they’ve been telling him hard work and dedication will get him where he wants.
