Al Iaquinta was a fairly sizable underdog in the UFC on FOX 31 main event, but came through with flying colors.
Iaquinta (14-4-1 MMA, 9-3 UFC) took a unanimous decision from Kevin Lee (17-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) in their rematch this past Saturday night to get back in the win column in the lightweight division about eight months after he fought champion Khabib Nurmagomedov on short notice – a move that truly got the division’s attention.
