Matt better get the takedown quick, otherwise it will be a stand up/clinch clinic for the Pitbull.

good move by Dana to find a new contender for GSP'S title...

a win over Hughes and all of a sudden Alves in the title hunt like no other

Pitbull better get his TD defense down.  GSP will take him down and will and punish him from top, otherwise.

no doubt,but dana needs to get some interest in that division going.......

if alves beats hughes (which I think he can) Alves is all of a sudden is a legend killer and it'll sell as far as a future PPVs....

the name "Hughes" is still key in that division

close, close fight here.

I don't think Hughes will be hungry for this fight knowing he won't get a shot at the title in this decade even w a win over Alves.

Alves will obviously be hungry for the win with a title shot in the future.

However, Hughes has tons of pride, and i see him as the winner here.
