Report: Jim Miller replaces Al Iaquinta, fights Thiago Alves at UFC 205

One of the top stories in MMA this week is Al Iaquinta's contract dispute with the UFC, which is why he's off of the big UFC 205 event at New York City's famous Madison Square Garden. Iaquinta went into great detail about his time off due to injury, the "infractions" which led to him being ineligible for post-fight bonuses, and how the loss of sponsorships under the Reebok deal has affected him financially.

Iaquinta was scheduled to fight Thiago Alves, but it looks as if Alves has found a new opponent for his lightweight debut.
