Chris Wade is set to headline PFL 5 close to home and is looking to make a statement. Speaking recently to MMA Junkie Radio , Wade (15-5 MMA, 1-1 PFL) said he sees himself taking Aliev out in the first round. “Submission,” Wade said. “I take him down. Let’s go first, why not.” And he believes that Aliev (18-4 MMA, 1-0 PFL) hasn’t faced an opponent quite like him, someone who possesses the wrestling background and experience he does. “We’ve done a lot of tape watching on him and I got to take a look at some of the higher level fighters he’s gone against,” Wade said.
