UFC veteran Sam Alvey has made a smooth transition from MMA to karate competition, and is days away from his first title shot. At Karate Combat 43, Alvey enters his second fight with the promotion, which will be for the vacant heavyweight title (205 pounds) against Ross Levine. While Alvey’s run in the UFC ended with a rough skid of losses, he has rejuvenated his combat sports career in an all-striking sport that is steadily gaining more attention. “I have been able to go into a promotion and impress them so much in one fight that they offered me a title shot, and against a reigning champion a weight lower,” Alvey told MMA Junkie Radio.
