The Fight Fix (@CSNWashington.com) talks about a couple of boxing matchups this past weekend, including a ‘Fight of the Year’ candidate bout between Victor Ortiz and Andre Berto in Connecticut, Wisconsin. Mixed Martial Arts coverage begins at 1:08 with an interview with former UFC welterweight contender Thiago Alves, who meets Rick Story at UFC 130 next month.
Alves admits that after working with Mike Dolce and using his Dolce Diet plan, “The Pitbull” realized that everything he was doing before worked against him in weight cutting as well as his performance come fight day. Now he feels like a whole new fighter and will be ready come May 28.
The Brazilian also gives his thoughts on fighting on the preliminary card for the first time in three years, and has a message for Story, “be careful of what you wish for.”
