JeongYeong Lee is a professional mixed martial artist based in South Korea who competes in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). He started his martial arts training at an early age and has developed into one of the most formidable fighters in the UFC.

From an early age he showed an aptitude for physical combat and began training traditional Korean martial arts such as Tang Soo Do and Tae Kwon Do from which he would later build his own unique style of MMA.

At 20 years old he made his professional MMA debut for “Road FC” where he won by unanimous decision against Myeong Hwan Chang. He then went on to win a total of five fights before signing with the UFC in 2017.

Since then lee has gone on to win four more out of six fights that followed all within two rounds or less proving himself as one of the quickest finishers amongst top competitors at 135 lbs division . In 2019 lee faced off against Casey Kenny who held a twelve fight winning streak going into that match-up but yet again lee came out ahead via technical knockout securing him another ‘Performance Of The Night’ bonus award .

In 2020 Lee signed up to compete at featherweight section , making it clear that he is willing to take risks and try new weight classes so as to expand opportunities available within UFC’s vast roster .
