OAKLAND, Calif. – Prior to Saturday’s show, UFC president Dana White hosted a pre-UFC 117 press conference and confirmed that the winner of a co-main-event fight between welterweight contenders Jon Fitch and Thiago Alves would get a title shot.
Fitch dominated Alves and posted his 22nd win in 23 fights, but he now appears no closer to that title fight.
“I don’t know,” White told MMAjunkie.com when asked if Fitch gets the winner of December’s UFC 124 title fight between champ Georges St-Pierre and Josh Koscheck.
