Brad Tavares: A Veteran’s Approach

For more than a decade, Brad Tavares has remained a constant in the middleweight division. He entered the UFC in 2010 after competing on Chuck Liddell’s team on The Ultimate Fighter and, since then, he has been in the Octagon with some of the best to ever do it.

Tavares has yet to win a title, but his competition stands out, having fought current champion Dricus Du Plessis, Israel Adesanya, Robert Whittaker, Yoel Romero, and Chris Weidman.

Saturday's Full Fight Card Preview

He’s back at the APEX this Saturday, and although his last outing in the Octagon didn’t go the way he wanted against Gregory Rodrigues, Tavares’s approach to handling losses has gotten better over time.
