I agree, Alves record at 7-2 looks good on paper until you look at who he beat. With the exception of Chris Lytle, no one else stands out. Who cares about Karo, we all know he's overrated to begin with. His only real tests were Fitch and Spencer Fisher and he lost BOTH of those. This one will be over early, Hughes by submission 2 minutes 27 seconds, round 1. Serra, be prepared, in Decemeber, you get your last taste of the the spotlight because you're next.

Now if they add Leben-Bisping as a co-main event, this thing will be worth buying. Don't be surprised if they add that too. Bisping said the other day in an interview that he wants to fight again soon and you know if they can put togeter a fight for him in England, he'd fight on NO NOTICE.

Dude Thiago was like 20 years old when he lost to Fischer in his first fight in the ufc and his only other loss is to Fitch who last time I checked is the number 1 contender. And yeah beating Karo says nothin about how much he improved because Karos just an overrated can right gimme a break Karos not as good as he thinks he is but he is a top WW in the UFC. Your sayin its crazy for anyone to think Alves can beat Hughes which is retarded. If he can sprawl and brawl he will KO Hughes if not Hughes wil prolly control him for three rounds. Im not sayin its an easy fight for Thiago but its deffinitly one he can win
