Thiago Alves vs. Jordan Mein UFC 183

Thiago Alves vs. Jordan Mein UFC 183

A member of the UFC roster since 2005 who challenged Georges St-Pierre for the welterweight crown in 2009, Alves has been hampered by injuries over the last few years, but in April of 2014 he made a triumphant return with a Fight of the Night winning performance against Seth Baczynski and he expects more of the same against Mein. With Alves forced out of their bout in August of 2014 due to injury, Alberta's "Young Gun" Mein still showed up to fight in Tulsa, blasting out veteran Mike Pyle in just 72 seconds to pick up his second consecutive win and a Performance of the Night bonus. Expect plenty of fireworks from these two exciting strikers.
