In the 1986 British Boxing Yearbook, Lee is credited with 60 contests. I have been unable to trace twelve of these and as I am uncertain as to the original source they have not been included in this record. Lee was the uncle of George McKenzie, who also held the British featherweight title. Lee was a noted puncher who won the first of his titles when well into his thirties.

He came from a fighting family and many of his early contests are only now coming to light. He was discovered by Harry Dorsey and managed, whilst in London, by Harry Berman. He boxed extensively in the United States, where he toured three times, and in Australia. He won a Lonsdale Belt outright by the time he was 23 and did so in a very competitive division and during a very competitive era.
