TAMPA, Fla. – Joel Alvarez thinks the odds are that a move to welterweight is next.
At UFC on ESPN 63 at Amalie Arena, Alvarez (22-3 MMA, 7-2 UFC) knocked out veteran fighter Drakkar Klose early in their bout and immediately indicated his days at lightweight could be over due to the difficulty of the weight cut.
There are circumstances that would keep Alvarez from making this move, such as a home country fight. But in most scenarios, Alvarez said his next fight would be at welterweight.
