Back To The Middleweight Match-Up Between Julian Marquez and Sam Alvey
Marquez is coming off an emphatic comeback victory. In particular, the middleweight faced off with Maki Pitolo. While Marquez put up a valiant effort, for the most part, he got destroyed. Then, after taking damage throughout three rounds, the 30-year old pulled off an amazing anaconda choke. Since getting the win, Marquez has been the talk of the town and now he has his next fight scheduled. Prior to the recent success, Marquez underwent a period of inactivity but took a loss to Alessio Chirico in 2018.
“Smilin” Alvey has gone up and down in weight and for a while was just competing at light heavyweight. Now, the fighter is looking to remain disciplined and admitted to having to lose a ton of weight ahead of making his middleweight mark. However, Alvey has always presented challenges for middleweights, with such an iron chin, the American often catches opponents off guard.
