Can't remember the last time I saw him fight before his surgery. It's a been long while. Can't wait to see him whip those leg kicks!

What advantaged you see Aves having? the only one I can see is if he is able to
to keep Mein on the outside and chop away with kicks but seeing as it has never been Alves'a style in the past I can't see it being utilized here

I laugh a little, or at least am baffled at how much love Alves gets after all these years. He was cool like a decade ago. He hardly fights. He was never that cool...he beat a washed up Hughes....weeee....

I swear this guy gets more random love than any fighter ever.

I like Thiago and all but there are legitimately people who think he could make a title run if healthy.

That was awesome, Alves dealt with Mein's pressure superbly, he wasn't getting whooped he blocked a lot of shots. Perfectly placed kick to the body.

Mein is really dangerous but he needs to mix it up more, he could be a lot more unpredictable with the height, reach and threatening power he's got.

Alves vs Tarec would be a great fight, should Alves win he'd be 'in the mix'.

What a way to start the main card tonight! Having heart and a tough chin goes a very long way in this sport. That was a NASTY body kick. That snap...sounded like he broke his ribs. I told my friend that he'd end it with a high kick since Mein kept circling to his left. Awesome fights all across the board!
