[autotag]Jorge Masvidal[/autotag] had no problem kicking [autotag]Kevin Lee[/autotag] while he was down following a submission loss to Charles Oliveira on Saturday.
Just moments after Lee (18-6 MMA, 11-6 UFC) succumbed to a third-round guillotine choke from Oliveira in the lightweight headliner at UFC on ESPN+ 28, Masvidal (35-13 MMA, 12-6 UFC) took to social media to offer harsh criticism.
Masvidal’s problem with Lee appeared to be multi-pronged. He took issue with “The Motown Phenom” missing weight by 2.5 pounds for the fight, and then attempting to claim he didn’t tap out to Oliveira when it was evident he did (via Twitter):
You should be cut for this bitch move. Tap and try to continue? One of the lowest things you can do hoe ass bitch https://t.co/M67EFkfUlm

First bitch move: misss weight. Second bitch move: tap and try to continue. Disrespectful to the sport and that’s the lowest thing you can do https://t.co/tqCMerQzjV

It’s unknown if Masvidal’s disdain for Lee stems solely from the events leading up to and at UFC on ESPN+ 28. However, it’s quite clear “Gamebred” was not appreciative of how Lee conducted himself, and the “BMF” champ let it be known.
