Georges St-Pierre v Thiago Alves

Round 1

GSP gets the early takedown, Alves gets straight back up but is immediately taken down again. Alves recovers but GSP takes his back. Alves does well to defend the choke and scrambles to his feet.

Thiago produces a good flurry of punches and kicks but is again taken down. He recovers without receiving any damage.

Round 2

GSP connects with a good leg kick before once again taking down Alves a minute into the second round. GSP's ground and pound busts Thiago's nose and continues to cause damage as the round progresses. Alves eventually manages to get the fight back standing with less than a minute to go but he's visibily the worse off of the two fighters so far.

Round 3

Alves has a decent spell in the stand up before GSP once again shoots in to take him down a minute and a half in, little damage is caused before Alves gets to his feet with two minutes of the round to go.

Alves is getting in the odd leg kick but is losing the stand up battle to the superior reach of GSP who floors him with 30 secs to go in the round. Alves clinches on his back and manage to survive the round.

Round 4

Another takedown early into the round sees GSP gain dominant position, he patiently works for a submission but as he goes for a rear naked choke and then an arm bar he ends up on the bottom for the first time in the fight. Alves is unable to cause any real damage however and the fight goes back to the feet before GSP once again shoots in for a successful takedown which results into him taking Alves' back. GSP goes for the rear naked choke once again but Alves manages to last the 30 or so seconds to the end of the round.

Round 5

Having the judges scorecards in the bag, GSP starts the final round patiently but gets another successful takedown a minute in, Alves again gets to his feet, but is taken down once again a minute or so later. As has been the pattern for the fight Alves finds his way back to his feet but it's only a matter of time before he is taken down again and that's pretty much how it ends.
