Iaquinta Nation

You’ve all been anxiously waiting all week and it’s finally Fight Night. Tonight at 10pm watch Al on a brand new episode of UFC’s TUF Live which will conclude with Iaquinta’s fight against Myles Jury. There’s been a lot of talk about both Myles as well as Al all week. People have discussed backgrounds, records, quality of opponents, and past training. Fight fans have watched videos of both fighters, gotten caught up in the betting odds that Vegas came out with, and watched any fight video out there on both Jury and Iaquinta. People have disrespected Al on messages boards, and even continue to try and find excuses for him winning his fight to get into the house agaisnt Jon Tuck. The fact of the matter is he did win that fight without a doubt and he IS in the house, and now it’s his time to show the entire world who Al Iaquinta is.

I’m here now to tell you to forget about all of that. Forget about the history, the numbers, the odds, and all the who fought who talk. It’s time to just think about tonight, and in focusing on tonight there’s just a few important things to remember about Al Iaquinta. He is one of the hardest working, dedicated, and focused people we all know. Al has more heart and determination then anyone else I’ve ever met. He’s going to get locked in that cage tonight and do everything in his power to come out with a victory, because he won’t accept failure. No one is more deserving of an opportunity like this, and tonight’s fight is just the next step in Al’s journey.  Take a deep breath Iaquinta Nation and get excited, it’s time to go to war.
