UFC lightweight contender Kevin Lee is usually not hesitant to flaunt his unique fashion sense for the world to see. The clothes he chooses for media obligations are usually turned into stories in itself, given their outrageous nature.

Recently, Lee’s outfit during his arrival at UFC Milwaukee last December had resurfaced, after light heavyweight champion Jon Jones made a comment about it on Instagram. The “Motown Phenom” was not pleased by it, and subsequently issued a strong response.

Make no mistake, I’m not afraid of sh-t. Even if imma take a L, i can’t let disrespect slide without retaliation.

We can throw knuckles too, Jon.

Sincerely,

Mr. I don’t give a f—k

Lee was actually congratulatory towards Jones right after UFC 232 last month, lauding the current 205-pound champion for being able to deliver “under that amount of pressure.”

The number-five ranked Lee is coming off a unanimous decision loss to Al Iaquinta in their rematch, and now holds a record of 17-4 (with 10 wins by stoppage).
