    The Alves who tore through Lytle, Karo, Hughes and Koscheck.

    That's what happens when you run into St. Pierre and Fitch.

    Those two are in a league by themselves in the Welterweight Division, while Georges is even above that relative to Fitch and himself.
     
  3. He need to sort his weight out the fat pitbull.
    Id like to see him against rematch in Matt Hughes.
    Though i should warn you that if he misses the weight again or loses he will be axed from the ufc roster.

    I couldnt agree more !!!! , id like the UFC to give Thiago some stand up fighters at least in his next 2 fights , i love nothing more than to watch Alves clynically destroy people standing up , its ****in great !!!!

    Love ya pit bull :good

    Alves Hardy , headlining a UK bill , Dana take note .

    Providing Condit doesnt beat Alves to it that is .................

    Spot on :good

    I think the Fitch we seen against Alves is about the closest thing we have had to a worthy #1 contender since Thiago himself , at least as worthy as he looked on paper anyway .

    IMO the Fitch we seen last time out , gives St Pierre a hard nights work :deal

    Alves vs Hardy would be awesome but like Bisping I think Hardy will be looked after in between his occassional jumps to elite level.

    I'm still stunned one of Alves' losses on his record is Spencer Fisher. All hail the King.

    I wish Fitch and Koscheck would stop being bellends and just fight eachother. When are they going to realise neither of them are going to beat GSP? What are they seriously going to do after GSP hands Koscheck his ass for the second time then does the same to Fitch? Try again? ****ing fight eachother already.

    Thats gonna be pretty difficuilt to acheive looking at the depth @70 in the UFC , if he loses to Condit , which in all honesty he may well do , he's back to being a take what he can type of fighter , i.e. the UFC give him him an option and he snaps there hand off , i honestly beleive Condit is too well rounded for Hardy and will take a close decision , but its a pick em all the same .

    If Hardy wins , id love Alves vs Hardy in the UK , that would be very big !!!!

    Like Davis and Swick, Condit will come to bang. I think they are hoping Hardy has a little more finesse in his game coupled with a so far impressive ability to take a shot and dish out some punishment.
