Sam Alvey issued one of the friendliest callouts in UFC history. After defeating Marcin Prachnio by knockout at UFC on FOX 28 last month, Alvey said he’d like to face Gian Villante next in the least adversarial way possible.
And, as it turns out, Alvey will get his wish. A bout between Alvey and Villante has been set up for UFC Utica on June 1, Newsday reported Tuesday.
Alvey (32-10, 1 NC) moved up to light heavyweight for his bout against Prachnio and looked fantastic. The Team Quest product has won six of his last eight bouts.
