Houston Alexander simply explains reason for fighting in BKFC at 50: ‘Why not?’

BAD MMA News — Fri, 13 May 2022 02:02:06 +0000

A fighter who started his professional career in the early 2000s, Alexander is still going strong at 50 years old, and in an unlikely arena at that. MMA fans who have been around since the early days will likely remember Alexander’s UFC debut against Keith Jardine in 2007. It was a vicious performance in which Alexander finished the fight in just 48 seconds.
