With two wins in the UFC in a total combined time of a minute and forty nine seconds,  many are curious as to what stamina Houston Alexander has in his 205 pound frame. 2007’s light-heavyweight breakthrough performer, Alexander, may have his endurance tested against fellow rising star at 205 in Thiago Silva.

“Even though the fights have been going so fast, we train to go 5, 6, 7 rounds”, comments Alexander. “The fights just happen to be ending in the first round, that’s not my fault. (smiles) But we train to go the distance. Every time we fight, that’s what we do.”
