XFC Signs Flyweight Andrea Lee
Adding to the depths of there women 125 pound division XFC has announced the addition of Louisiana’s Andrea “KGB” Lee (4-3 am) to the promotions roster.
Lee is arguably the most popular amateur female competing in The Pelican State. It may have been her scrappy style, huge following, and country girl charm that first caught the eye of XFC President John Prisco, but it was her legit striking and huge upside that sealed the deal.
Lee in her amateur debut dropped a split decision to Jade DeHaas, then bounced back to TKO Paige Penn. “KGB” again would hit a set back losing a unanimous decision to Kristy Kester, before running off 3 wins in a row over, defeating Amanda Fine (UD), Magali Gaudet (TKO), and Kim Colbert (SUB). Lee will enter the XFC and turn pro looking to start a new win streak after a recent submission loss to Katlyn Chookagian. Lee also holds a 7-0 Muay Thia record.
Andrea “KGB” Lee had this to say about signing her first pro contract: “I am super excited about being a part of the XFC. I’m still just blown away by the whole process. It’s a surreal feeling and I don’t even think it’s begun to really sink in. I just can’t believe that I still have amateur business ahead of me, but I already have a home when I turn pro. But mark my words, I won’t relax one bit. This doesn’t mean I can slack. In fact, I’m going to push even harder so the XFC knows they made the right decision bringing me in. I’ve been a fan of the XFC for a while now and have really started looking at the talented girls that are already there. The company is helping develop some great young fighters and that’s really exciting for me. What that means for me is, with Champions and contenders with smaller records, If I make an impressive debut and follow-up fight…I could be right in the mix.”
