Middleweights collide before the main event at UFC Vegas 47!
Both Brendan Allen and Sam Alvey look to rebound from losses when they face off on February 5th.
Round 1:
The two exchange in the pocket to begin the fight. Allen goes for a takedown against the cage but Alvey stuffs it with a sprawl. Alvey loads up on his punches and looks sharp in the striking department. The two are inactive for the most part as they both feint quite a lot.
Allen throws a spinning attack but doesn’t get much off of it. Allen sets up some leg kicks. Alvey lands a crisp 1-2 on Allen. They clinch, as they separate, Allen lands an amazing punch. It drops Alvey as the round ends.
Round 2:
Allen starts off with a variety of kicks on Alvey. Alvey lands a leg kick, Allen smiles and returns with a body kick. Allen swarms Alvey with a killer combo of punches. The swarm would drop Alvey once again. Allen gets top control of the grounded Alvey and grabs the neck. He quickly gets the rear-naked choke and submits the UFC veteran.
Official result: Brendan Allen submits Sam Alvey via rear-naked choke (R2 2:10)
