Another top rank AKA product goes down to a surging Paulo Thiago. In his debut Thiago, caught Josh Koshcheck with a surprising upper cut and left hook combination to end the fight, last night he showed off his ground skill by ending Swick's night with a Darsce Choke.
This what Thiago had to say about his victory: "I'm very, very happy with this victory. Mike Swick is a very tough guya and I knew it was going to be a tough fight. Mike Swick has a big career with the UFC so it's normal that people were going to think he would win. But I trained very hard, day and night. People should expect my next fight to be even better performance and continued improvement but yes, [back to work on Monday]."
Thiago is now 13 -1 (he is 2-1 against AKA fighters), where does this put him in the Welterweight division. Could he face the winner of Koshcheck vs Daley?
