Alternate Commentary: Rick Story vs. Thiago Alves

Welcome to the second of many pieces of Rick Story content on the Fight Site. 

When our dedicated patron Sandro (AKA @JabZudah) requested a single Rick Story breakdown, I was excited. Story is a fighter our educated fanbase truly appreciates, he introduces refreshing depth to the classic meat and potatoes “aggressive wrestle-boxer” game in mixed martial arts. 

But why stop at one breakdown? To truly honor this request, I will be watching and providing commentary over six Rick Story fights. With our first breakdown of Rick Story vs. Johny Hendricks out of the way, we move on to his next significant bout, vs. Thiago Alves. 

Story’s tactics are put to the test against a dangerous and physical veteran, and one of my all-time favorite fighters.
