Thomas Gerbasi said:
With his teammate Chris Weidman already in the UFC 173 main event against Vitor Belfort, Long Island will have another representative in the Octagon on May 24 in Las Vegas, as rising lightweight star Al Iaquinta has verbally agreed to put his three fight winning streak on the line against Canada's Mitch Clarke.
Clarke is coming back to the Octagon for the first time since a UFC 161 victory over John Maguire last June, while Iaquinta is making a quick return to action following his UFC 169 win over Kevin Lee in February.

Step down for Al. Don't see this going any other way than him outclassing him on the feet for 3 rounds

I remember this kid Clarke and he was all crying and emotional after a big win.. He went through some rough times and I said to myself that I hope the best for him and became a fan of him as a person.
Now he's fighting one of my good friends... This business sucks sometimes...
After Al wins i hope he sticks around for real.

Al should win very easily.
