Fight Night Atlantic City: Fantasy Rewind

Kevin Lee earned a lopsided win over Edson Barboza to cap off UFC Fight Night from Atlantic City, but "The Motown Phenom" didn't walk away without surviving a major scare.
After dominating the first two rounds with his wrestling and a vicious ground-and-pound attack, Lee was caught by a spinning wheel kick from Barboza that nearly brought the fight to an end. Fortunately for Lee, he was able to scramble for a takedown that gave him enough breathing room to recover before getting back on track before the end of the round.
The rest of the fight shifted directly back into Lee's favor as he continued to pressure and put Barboza on the mat before unleashing a barrage of punches and elbows in a dominant performance. The end finally came in the fifth round after Lee did so much damage that a nasty cut had opened over Barboza's eye that concerned doctors enough to stop the fight.
With the win, Lee will likely jump into the top five rankings in the lightweight division while showcasing to the world that he will challenge for a UFC title again one day soon.

Lee was only chosen by 43 percent of fantasy players, but he came through with a spectacular win while also earning the players who picked him an extra 120 points because it was such a close matchup.
