Alves, not so much. I am baffled at how classy Hughes was in defeat, especially considering the lack of respect by Alves not even coming close to making weight.

Alves really thinks he's " . . . been a good boy" now, thanks to this stamp of approval by the UFC. Questionable officiating, questionable management and now questionable results really taint this card. In the last 21 days, the WEC stands head and shoulders above every other promotion's best efforts. Very disappointing.
