LAS VEGAS – Kevin Lee (8-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) put up a good fight while on his feet, but his wrestling was far more effective in shutting down opponent Jesse Ronson (13-5 MMA, 0-3 UFC). Over three rounds, Lee outgrappled Ronson on his way to a split decision for his first UFC win. The lightweight bout closed out the preliminary card of today’s TUF 19 Finale event at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. It aired on FOX Sports 1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on FOX Sports 1. The final scores were 29-28, 28-29 and 30-27 for Lee, who wasted little time in trying to put Ronson on the mat
