of disrepect there from Alexander. >> Show me something.
Show me somehting.

>> Well when we talk about
the striking ability of Tommy, but what about the striking ability of Alexander?

[CROSSTALK] >> Alexander caught right in the chest.
And now Hideo to the back.
Hideo, He's into the cover but just right on top raining down right hands
onto the champion. >> Now, Alexander is in trouble.
>> Respect me.
>> Alexander has
not been able to get out of the, Alexander rolling through, shoulders down, and
retaining Itami. >> Just down the nick of time.

turn things around right here. >> And
Alexander. >> Cover,
to retain. >> And Itami, Itami out at two again.

the strong kicks of Itami.
Cedric Alexander has now slouch in that department either.

>> And that makes for
a very dangerous match for both men capable of knocking the other out with
kicks. >> And
Alexander creating a little bit of separation, and now Alexander, trying to
build some momentum in this match up. >> Moment of doubt perhaps.
Decision to be made. >> Alexander charging in.
Rocking a Itami with a form.
Hold on.
Alexander putting it on the line. >> Alexander landed hard.
Somersault sent on, didn't get all of it with Itami and, his lower
back crashing into the mat on the outside. >> Alexander
tossing Itami back into the ring. >> I think you're right there,
rules ain't enough to get Itami down. >> Alexander, measuring Hideo Itami.
