John Alessio, who tonight meets late-notice replacement Luiz Firmino in the headliner of Superior Cage Combat 3 in Las Vegas, said he had an easy time moving from welterweight to lightweight with the help of Mike Dolce.
Dolce was there for Alessio every step of the way, emailing meal suggestions and encouragement as the weight began to come off.
Even after cutting the last four pounds, Alessio today told MMAjunkie.com Radio that he felt “pretty damn good.”
