Hey everyone. I wanted to try and get some discussion going and hear who everyone would want to see Al Fight next. Once Sam Sicilia fights Chris Saunders, and Andy Ogle fights Mike Rio the quarter finals will be set. Everyone seems to have some thoughts, even Al himself via his Newsday Interview that he thought he matched up best against James Vick. I’m curious to hear from all of you. Who do you think Al should fight next and why? Possible fight choices from Team Cruz are Justin Lawrence, Vinc Pichel, and James Vick. Other choices pending what happens in their upcoming fights would be Mike Rio and Sam Sicilia as well. Comment below and lets hear what all of Iaquinta Nation has to say.

Id really like to see Al fight Vince Pichel… that dude is such an arrogant POS. Hes white trash and pisses me off… id really like to see Al beat him to a pulp…
That being said… i want Al to fight whoever he feels he matches up against best
Al should be a protected in a way when they pick the fights for the next round. But, I think he is the best fighter in the house. He’s very good in every aspect of the game. Some dudes are only good at one art. Not good enough for them. TUF champion AL IAQUINTA
Based on the time frame of the past 6 fights, Al should fight either Justin lawrence or James Vick. I doubt that TUF would want to put the two highest ranking fighters against each other so early, so my money is on Iaquinta vs. Vick either week 1 of the quarters, or week two. If Al fightes in week two, then Mike Chiesa will fight week one against Lawrence or Vick
Bottome line… Al is gonna smash whoever he fights.
