Georges St Pierre

"We'll see what is he going to say after my next fight with Serra if I'm afraid to get knocked out. Maybe he's going to change his mind. Tell him to wait one more fight before saying stuff like that and maybe after that he's going to change his mind."

UFC 83 After Party with Thiago Alves
Thiago “Pitbull” Alves, coming off a big knockout win over Karo “The Heat” Parisyan at UFC Fight Night 13 earlier this month, will be in Toronto, Ontario, Canada to host a UFC 83: “Serra vs. St. Pierre 2″ pay-per-view (PPV) viewing party at the Diesel Playhouse.

This special event is being put on by The Substance Group in association with Miller Genuine Draft, as well as a host of other sponsors.

Alves certainly cleaned up the mess at the top of the welterweight contenders list by taking out 'The Heat' and will look to get a shot at the title — Jon Fitch more than likely gets the next opportunity, taking on the winner of the main event this weekend sometime later this year.

If you're in Toronto and you couldn't score tickets to get out to Montreal to catch this historic card live, then this is a guaranteed great place to catch all the action.

The Diesel Playhouse sells out the PPV viewing parties each month so pick up your tickets beforehand. Click here.
