- Analysis
- At 12:00pm ET, my Fight Of The Month is on Joel Alvarez. Elves Brener is a pretty good fighter. The problem for him is that he's running into an even better one. Off a loss in his last fight, Brener could have used a different opponent to regain his confidence against, ideally one that he could use his submission skills against. Alvarez is an expert grappler though and has 17 submission wins to his credit. Alvarez was beaten up by Arman Tsarukyan 2 fights ago. Tsarukyan is one of the best 20 pound-for-pound fighters in the world though. Alvarez promptly got right back on track by chokinng out Marc Diakiese, a fighter less skilled on the ground. That's the type of matchup which Brener should have been looking for here. Alvarez has fought better competition. He's bigger and he's more well-rounded. He will hand Brener a 2nd straight defeat. Play on Alvarez.
