The Korean Zombie finished Renato Moicano in an impressive performance

#3 Best: Andrea Lee could be a star in the making

Andrea Lee got a big crowd reaction last night with her win over Montana De La Rosa

As I mentioned earlier, Andrea Lee was one of the few fighters to get a big crowd reaction upon her entrance last night, and it’s quite easy to see why; she’s got a likeable, bubbly personality, a marketable and easily recognisable look, and an exciting fighting style too. And her win over Montana De La Rosa last night was perhaps her best UFC performance yet.

Sure, ‘KGB’ didn’t get a finish on the former TUF competitor, but her striking looked on point as she pieced De La Rosa up with long punches throughout the fight, and despite being taken down a couple of times, her grappling looked better too, as she was easily able to escape from underneath an opponent who had made her name as an excellent submission artist.

The only issue for Lee? The fact that she’s popular and marketable – and has now won 3 UFC fights – could mean that the UFC brass pushes her into a title fight with seemingly unbeatable champion Valentina Shevchenko a little too early, but bigger upsets have occurred and it’s not like she’s a complete rookie in MMA.

Overall though, it’s just nice to see the UFC stumble upon a potential star.
