What’s funny though is the announcers on Sportsnet last night said “Looks like Alves should stick to MMA.” I’m totally serious, I was watching the sports news last night getting the scores and the announcer (can’t remember who) said it after the highlights of Federer’s win.

wow people seriously think its the ufc’s Alves? come on people, obviously people have the same name. do people really think that Alves would have the time to become a professional tennis player along with training full-time to be a ufc fighter??
