Houston “Strong Arm” aka “the Assassin” Alexander continues to ride his rising star in the Ultimate Fighting Championship fight league. If the name sounds familiar, you might have heard Alexander on Power 106.9 FM, where he hosts a Sunday night show called “Sunday Night Raw.”But when he’s not on the air, and when he’s not taking care of his six children or putting on a dance demonstration at a local school, Alexander is an Ultimate Fighter. And on Sept. 8 the Assassin pummeled another opponent – this one in 1:01 at UFC 75 in London (you can see the fight via the YouTube.com link below).
During his post-fight interview Alexander wore a Nebraska Cornhusker hat and pointed to it and said, “Nebraska is in the building!”
A writer from the Baltimore Sun was impressed with Houston’s fight.
“Alexander put on another show last night in absolutely dominating Alessio Sakara,” the newspaper said. “Alexander showed a lot of energy and a lot of aggression and he also showed us that along with the fists that he displayed against Keith Jardine in his last fight, he has some wicked knees, too. Alexander is a powerfully built fighter and Sakara could do nothing to keep him on the ground.”

2 weeks between posts...I liked it better when Sean was running this...it kind of sucks now, used to read it every day.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Jim went on Vacation?
ReplyDeleteI agree, two weeks is waaaaaaaay toooooooo long. Bring Sean back. Or Minge needs to stop writing for the City Weekly. He needs to step down as editor of the 112-page paper so he can devote all of his time to this blog. It's time he stepped back and took a look at what's REALLY important in life. This blog and its five regular visitors!
ReplyDeleteI noticed over on the WOWT website that they've given a blog to just about everybody who works there except maybe the security guard and that creepy guy who does the outdoor sports report.
ReplyDeleteeh...make that 6 viewers...
ReplyDeleteGreg Wagner is not creepy. He is simply "different" in a way that makes you cringe everytime he appears on television type of way.
ReplyDeleteHow did this go from Houston Alexander to bagging on 6 to Greg Wagner. Where is the connection here?
ReplyDeleteHouston Alexander...I could take him.
