When is Amir Sodalloh fighting?

Anyone heard a rumor about Amir's first fight and who the opponent will be? My guess is Elvis Sinosic baby!!!

too many good wrestlers at 170....wrestlers with sub defense too.

He's in a tough spot....the best thing for him is to go 170 b/c he's just way too small for 185 and try to get a ton of fights under his belt before making an actual run up in the rankings. He's just very green right now. He's got a lot of potential but luck was on his side to help him win the show.

i think they're going to take their time with amir, hes very raw. they dont want their tuf champs losing early in their ufc career , it ruins credibility for the show. and there isnt exactly alot of good matchups for him at 170. i wouldnt be surprised if they sit him out for abit and let his skills develop in the gym.

haha, it was not luck that he won both times, it was tenacity, heart, and some skills. I hope they let him develop, get him so fights so he can get octagon experience, and take their time with him.

I'm pretty sure he's staying at 185 and i think he'll fight soon.
