The pace and pressure of Laureano Staropoli netted the biggest victory of his career on Saturday when he beat veteran Thiago Alves at UFC 237. Staropoli (9-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and his seemingly endless gas tank allowed him to pour on the offense against Alves (23-14 MMA, 15-11 UFC), who had his moments but was unable to stop the up-and-comer from getting the unanimous-decision nod. The welterweight bout was part of the UFC 237 main card from Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro and streamed on ESPN+ pay-per-view.
