After the great UFC 187 main card, the UFC makes its way to Brazil for UFC Fight Night 67. The leader in mixed martial arts will bring a great welterweight main event to your TV screens this coming weekend.
No. 4-ranked contender Carlos Condit returns to action against No. 12-ranked Thiago Alves.
Condit has lost three of his last four fights, but two of those losses came against Georges St. Pierre and Johny Hendricks. He returns after suffering a torn ACL and meniscus in his last fight against Tyron Woodley. Saturday will mark the first time he steps in the cage in over a year.
Alves has suffered a string of injuries of his own. The Brazilian was on the shelf from March 2012 to April 2014. Alves has won back-to-back fights over Seth Baczynski and Jordan Mein. The former title challenger wants to break into the top 10, and a win over Condit would do just that.
Who holds the advantages in Saturday’s main event?
This is your head-to-toe breakdown of the action.
