Thiago Alves’ agent says “Pitbull” disappointed, aims for quick return

Less than 72 hours before his chance at redemption against Jon Fitch,
Brazilian slugger Thiago Alves was told he wouldn’t get the chance to
step inside the cage.

An irregularity in a pre-fight CT scan was the culprit, but Alves’
agent, Malki Kawa of First Round Management, told MMAjunkie.com that his client is aiming for a quick return.

“Thiago is very disappointed,” Kawa said. “But he remains in good
spirits and hopes to get back in the cage very quickly.”
