How are you watching this Royness? I have never heard of this houston fella, is he good? I quite like Keith Jardine. I liked watching him bash up franklin.
streamtv... well if this jardne is any good... i suppose Houston aint bad... he looked very fast as he dismantled Keith - i liked him...
that was a good fight, Jardine dropped him with a solid shot, but then the other guy smoked him. Which Franklin?
Jardine is a joke. No skills whatsoever. He got hit with the same fucking uppercut like 10 times!!!! Dude, MAKE AN ADJUSTMENT!!!!
motherfuckin houston alexander fought like a straight up animal, how many uppercuts is the guy gonna fuckin land in one fight?? brutal knockout...and alexander said in the prefight, "im not a striker im a boxer" hahahah score one for the boxing crowd.
That guy had some serious speed and power on his shots. I'd never heard of him before but damn, that's quite an entrance eh? To just go in there and murder a quality fighter like Jardine with murderous punching in the first minute. That's the kind of KO all MMA fans want to see. Now they all know the name of HOUSTON ALEXANDER.
He was straight up pissed off when Jardine hit him then he went apesh*t. He was standing over a fallen Jardine like "Whassup now?!?!?!?!?"::

It's always been said that a dangerous striker with takedown defense could be a force in any MMA circuit. I REALLY hope they match Alexander with Forrest Griffin. It'll be funny as hell seeing Griffin torn to pieces.
Lets not overhype this guy people. The first decent submission specialist that this dude faces will ruin him.
That's possible. Alexander kind of reminds me of Pride's new african fighter Soukjoudu who trains with Team Quest. He obliterated Arona and little Noguira in seconds with single punches. Dynamite in his fists. I'd like to see what happens if he gets put on his back and how he defends.
Sokoudjou trains in Temecula and a teacher at a local high school that frequents the gym i used to go to trains there. The guy I know is a purple/brown belt (no-gi, hence no actual belt) and he says Judo Terry (as they call him) is strictly a grappler who has just been working on his hands, and they were very surprised to see not one, but two upset knockouts. They knew he was good, but not that good.
Sokodjou's 1 loss was a purely striking fight. Not to say he is easy to outstrike but that's how his loss happened.
