Earlier this week Jeremy Brand of MMASucka had the opportunity to chat with Mike Dolce regarding all things "The Dolce Diet". Mike talks candidly about Thiago Alves and his last fight. As well as the fact that he would love to get back into the cage in 2012 for a few fights.

You will have to excuse me for the lack of submissions to my regular article, but I was a little tied up for a few weeks. More specifically last weekend when it was my wedding.

Nostradamus holds nothing on the MMASucka crew; well actually hang on, we’ll see on December 21, 2011 - that whole end of the world thing. Boy wouldn’t we look like a bunch of retards if the Mayans and Nostradamus were right.
It's five weeks out from my rematch with Jer Kornelson. I finally got the chance to watch our first fight. Cognitive dissonance had me believe that the fight was a back and fourth battle, when in reality it was a sloppy sub par grappling match. My sub attempts were not set up and I gassed hard.
