Why is Alonzo Menifield taking long breaks between fights?

[Martialbeef]

The guy is on a tear, 8-0, and all his wins have came via finish. Yet he seems to take a few month break between every scrap. Even though most of his wins are in round 1.

Guys like this annoy me. He is 32 so not sure what he is waiting on.

Have him fight the loser of Rakic vs Oezdemir.

It's difficult cuz his body type is like this

to develop skills and not just be another athletic prospect? what happens he runs into a guy like OSP? im not saying he cant win, but it isnt crazy to think osp is ahead in the skills department.

Hard to know what's going on. Might be injuries, might be opponents declining to fight him, might be something else entirely.

Certainly it would have made more sense for him (rather than Craig) to fight Shogun next Saturday.

He fought and KO'd Paul Craig in round 1 in June. He can develop his skills against a better guy sooner than he is doing so. Don't be afraid to lose that 0.

At one point he had complained that he wasn’t getting back into the cage quick enough. He was scheduled to fight Trevor Smith(weird fight) in Dec. but has appeared to have withdrawn. Hopefully he doesn’t have a bad injury.

Sometimes you fuck up your cycles...........

Maybe he doesn't like Bruce Buffer
