The fight begins and Sakara with a quick 1-2. Sakara with a leg kick. Sakara with a spinning back fist that misses. Sakara with a nice punch/kick combo. Irvin seems real tentative and eats a right hand. Irving is coming forward and lands a nice leg kick. Sakara with a nice body shot. Sakara with a big right hand. Sakara looks much quicker than Irvin right now. Irvin takes a punch to the eye and says he got poked in the eye it seems. They are allowing him time to recover. The replay is showing that it's not an eye poke and it was indeed a PUNCH. The referee determines that it's a TKO victory for Alessio Sakara.

![Dana White states that if James Irvin stays with the UFc it will not be at middleweight.
"No more 185(-pound fights) for him," White told MMAjunkie.com. "He didn't look good. I think he's got a lot of scar tissue in his face under his eyes. That was sticking out more than his eyeballs were. He didn't look good [at weigh-ins]."
"I'm a huge James Irvin fan," he said after the fight. "I'm a fan of the guy; I really am. He's had some of the best knockouts in the UFC, and he always comes to fight. Tonight, it looked like the cut killed him. He couldn't get off. He couldn't throw any punches tonight. He was basically getting lit up by Sakara, and that's not James Irvin. That's not who he is as a fighter. The 185 cut is too hard for him."](http://cdn3.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/106315/14iekis_small.jpg)
