Thiago Alves Says Dana White Gave Him One More Shot at Making the Welterweight Limit:
"Dana said, 'You've got to make weight, otherwise we've got to move you to 185.' I told him, 'Just please give me another chance. I won't mess up again.' I didn't make excuses. I told him I thought I was there but I wasn't. I took full responsibility. It's not my coach or my camp, it's me. I just asked for another chance, and he said OK. But I know this is my last chance."

Thiago Alves -160 talks Jon Fitch +140:
"I’ve been looking to face Fitch again for a long time and this fight couldn't happen at a better moment of my life. I'll knock him out and start my road to the title in 2010. This is gonna be my year."
"I worked hard not to let outside stuff interfere with me, and I’m certain that I'm better than before and that I won't commit the mistakes of the past," said Alves. "At fight time I'll have the automatic instinct to knock Fitch out. He can't capitalize on anything from our first fight, and I can’t either. But this time, I'll hunt him across the Octagon the entire match for a big KO."

Thiago Alves -130 is looking for payback:
"I’m thrilled and already prepared [for Jon Fitch EVEN]. I’ve been waiting for this fight for four years and now I got the chance for the revenge. I like revenge; it’s time to payback."
"I think I was too young when we fought. I wasn’t new in the sport but was in UFC. This American system of losing weight, everything else... Nowadays, I’m a totally different fighter. I learned a lot and I am more experienced and a much better fighter when it comes to standing, wrestling, jiu-jitsu... It couldn’t be a better time. I’m coming off a loss and I want to go back to the winners list. Beating Fitch, I will fight for the belt again."
"I want to take him on, and go after the belt, no matter who holds it. I think [Georges] St-Pierre is going to win but you never know. If it’s Dan Hardy, I'll take the belt from him and get the revenge with St-Pierre next."
