He's been on a tear since losing to Gsp, and Alves is coming off of a very long layoff for this fight. I'm thinking it will go like the first fight only it will probably go to a decsion this time. Seems like the type of fight I might bet heavily on as I really don't see Alves winning this. Thoughts??

Very split views on this fight from the forum. Some are heavy on Fitch winning by UD like he always does. Some think Alves wins by being able to hold Fitch off and out striking him. Even though the medical issues with Alves doesn't permanently impair him physically in any way, the layoffs here and there he's had to take might be a factor. Personally I like Alves, but only if it was at even money. Given all the delays this fight has been put through and every time it's been on Alves' end I think the smart money should be on Fitch right now since he's the dogComment -
Alves is going to have cage rustiness! Smart money is definitely on Fitch!Comment -

gotta go with fitch as the dog, in the first fight he was able to take alves down easy and do work. Now alves is coming off a big layoff and had to have surgery on his brain.That shits gotta have an effect on him in his first fight back.Comment -
A small bet on Fitch would be good.Comment
