Undefeated lightweight prospect Kevin Lee will make his Octagon debut on Super Bowl Saturday opposite Al Iaquinta at UFC 169.
Iaquinta, 26, has won back-to-back fights since submitting to Michael Chiesa at “The Ultimate Fighter 15” finale this past June. The Serra-Longo Fight Team rep last competed in October, when he took a unanimous decision from Polish talent Piotr Hallmann at UFC Fight Night 30.
Just 21 years old, Lee has been perfect through six pro outings, rattling off three victories in 2012 and then matching that mark this year. The Michigan native most recently stepped into the cage this past September, submitting the previously unbeaten Travis Gervais in 46 seconds at Canadian Fighting Championship 8.
