Cote Talks Almeida, Almeida Talks Cote

The Patrick Cote-Ricardo Almeida bout could turn out to be one hell of a fight when all is said and done at UFC 86. It's a timely matchup because it helps to slim down the list of serious contenders in the middleweight division, and both guys are at a point where they can't afford to lose. Plus, I love a good contest of accents.

Check out Cote's plans for a sprawl-and-brawl victory above. Almeida is after the jump. He might not be the last guy left in MMA who refers to his desire to go out and "represent jiu-jitsu", but he's definitely part of a dying breed.
