The UFC on FOX 11 is quickly filling up. Most recently it was announced that Thiago “Pitbull” Alves will make his long anticipated return to the Octagon against Seth Baczynski.

Thiago Alves returns to the Octagon against Seth Baczynski at UFC on FOX 11

UFC officials announced the match-up on Thursday.

Alves (19-9) has been out of action since March 2012 with numerous injuries. His last time in the Octagon was a submission loss to Martin Kampmann at UFC on FX 2. Alves will look to get back to his winning ways — he is 2-4 in his last six outings.

Baczynski (19-10) is coming off a unanimous decision victory against Neil Magny at UFC Fight for the Troops 3. Prior to that outing Baczynski was riding a two-fight losing streak to Mike Pierce and Brian Melancon.

No word as to where the Alves vs. Baczynski will land on the UFC on FOX 11 fight card.

UFC on FOX 11 takes place on April 19 from the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. The main event is a heavyweight tussle between Travis Browne and Fabricio Werdum.
