A lightweight bout pitting Thiago Alves and Jim Miller has been added to UFC 205. The news was made official during the UFC Fight Night 95 broadcast on FOX Sports 1 on Saturday night. It was first reported by Talk MMA.
Alves was originally scheduled to fight Al Iaquinta, but due to a contract dispute Iaquinta pulled out from the fight. Now, the Brazilian will take on the veteran Miller. Alves hasn't been fighting often, as he's only competed five times in the past five years. His last fight was a welterweight bout against top contender Carlos Condit, where he lost via second-round technical knockout.
