Interview with Alexander Poppeck above – Check it out

Alexander Poppeck (11-3) discusses his light heavyweight fight against Felix Polianidis (6-3) at National Fighting Championship 3 (6-3) on May 23. Alex also talks about his loss to Jamahal Hill on Dana White’s Contender Series, what type of training camp he’s had and why a win could secure him a UFC contract.

“Everytime I step in there people can expect an exciting fight. I go in there to win, not to play. That’s definitely the goal, to to the UFC after (this upcoming fight). Then I’d have three wins after the Contender Series and I think this should be enough to get in there finally.”
