MFC ANTONIO MCKEE THE CHAMPOn Friday night, Maximum Fighting Championships lightweight champ, Antonio McKee (25-3) remained undefeated in seven years going 11-0-1 in that time span.

It only took minutes for McKee to end the fight and keep his title against Brazilian Luciano Azevedo at last nights MFC 26: Retribution event. While in Azevedo’s guard, McKee opened up with a couple of vicious elbows that opened up a nasty gash on Azevedo’s forehead.

Azevedo quickly turned calling out for a stoppage, giving McKee a TKO (doctor stoppage) victory at 3:11 of the first.

McKee told the fans that he’s looking for some stiffer competition in someone like BJ Penn or Sean Sherk in the future.

“Like I told Mark Pavelich, if I don’t get this sucker out of here in the first or second round, I’m retiring. So guess it’s not true, you can teach an old dog new tricks,” McKee said after the fight. Never at a loss for words, the 40-year-old fighter didn’t stop there.

“I don’t fear anybody. I’m waiting for the UFC to release B.J. (Penn) or Sean Sherk so I can tear their ass up too.”
