Former UFC star Kevin Lee faced the wrath of the MMA community when he took a jibe at the UFC star Sean Brady. While ‘The Motown Phenom’ intended to call out another UFC star, Neil Magny, he received a scathing response from Brady. The American fighter had made the switch to Khabib Nurmagomedov‘s MMA promotion, Eagle FC, after a string of losses. However, the lightweight fighter supposedly signed a contract with UFC early this year and is on a hunt for an opponent for his comeback fight. The 30-year-old, therefore, narrowed down on ‘The Haitian Sensation’, who is coming off a loss against Gilbert Burns.
