In this interview Thiago Alves comments on his upcoming fight and how he plans to make a statement to the fans and the UFC by being the first guy to knockout Fitch.
I think he has come along way since the first fight and definitely has the power to knock Fitch out and has vastly improved his Jiu Jitsu off his back as we saw in his fight With St Pierre. If he stands the way he did when striking with GSP I think we are gonna see a very similar result as what happened in the GSP fight, because Fitch is an outstanding wrestler.
Alves’ Jiu Jitsu has greatly improved as we saw with his fight against GSP but I still think Fitch will win this one with his takedowns just like GSP did. Fitch might not be able to knock Alves out as he did in the first fight but I think he might still be able to at least grind him down to a decision.
Although Fitch is not the same fighter he was four years ago either…
