What's next for Houston Alexander?

Doesn't he still have some fights left on his contract? What do you think the UFC is gonna do with him? Who do you think he should fight next? Do you want to see him fight? I sure as hell do. Hopefully he's been working on his ground game.

He'll probably get mounted and TKO'd next.

He needs to fight soon so we can see if his ground games improved any. Or hopefully he just knocks the guy out standing again. War rocketman

Honestly he got me Hyped up.
But i like the guy and he is powerful. IF he can train in some JITS he can be a force and some takedown Defense.
Although he is a weird striker with his hands sometimes low.
With a good came he could be a force.
I hope we see him again.

I expect Dana and all the other UFC guys to match him against a striker. In that way, the Houston "We have a problem" hype would continue until he gets himself a decent ground game.
