THE GREAT FIGHT NORTH

News and Notes from Canada

John Alessio may have lost more than a match when he was disqualified against Brock Larson at WEC 33 in March.

The fight with Larson was the last on Alessio’s contract, and, according to the Canadian veteran, negotiations with the Zuffa LLC-owned organization have stalled, prompting him to consider offers from other promotions.

“I’m actually wondering myself what’s going on,” Alessio said. “I figured I would have heard something by now. They offered me the rematch with Larson, but it’s now up to my manager to negotiate. It’s going to come down to money and if they want to sign me long-term or not.”

I'm a fan of Alessio I hope he ends up back in the ufc, maybe not likely but I hope so.
I would like the rematch between him and Larson to be at the ufc in Minnesota in August, I believe that's Larsons hometown.
