Kevin Lee is not impressed by the newly conceived BMF title, which will be on the line when Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz collide in the UFC 244 main event.<\/p>\n
Lee bashed this newly conceived, one-off title in an interview with MMA Junkie<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was a lot of factors,\u201d Lee said when asked about his decision to move from welterweight to lightweight. \u201cLightweight was starting to get a lot more momentum going, especially after the way Khabib (Nurmagomedov) beat Dustin (Poirier) the way that he did, and there\u2019s so many moving parts.<\/p>\n \u201cWelterweight has kind of gotten a little stagnant,\u201d he added, taking a shot at Masvidal and Diaz. \u201cThey\u2019re doing this new title now that Masvidal and Diaz are fighting for. It\u2019s kind of a little boys title.\u201d<\/p>\n It did not take long for Jorge Masvidal to catch wind of this comment from Kevin Lee, and he’s expectedly not impressed. While he claims he generally prefers to ignore his haters, he simply couldn’t let Lee’s comment go unanswered.<\/p>\n I don\u2019t usually address my haters but for this IG influencer who couldn\u2019t cut it SHUT THE F**K UP. Don\u2019t like it? Come see me #fruitloops<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/UfAYyxXwj3<\/a><\/p>\n — Jorge Masvidal UFC (@GamebredFighter) October 2, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
