Alex Nicholson hasn't exactly had the best start to his UFC career. After losing his debut to Misha Cirkunov in February, he did manage to get a KO win over Devin Clark in July. In September though, he was busted for saying some racially insensitive things while cornering Mike Perry, and was also investigated for a domestic violence incident.
Regardless, he has a fight with Sam Alvey coming up. When a former Alvey opponent, Elias Theodorou, was asked about the matchup on Twitter, he decided to pick Alvey.
