Alves competed just once in 2017, ending a two-bout skid with a unanimous decision triumph against Salim Touahri at UFC Fight Night 118. The 27-year-old Brazilian began his promotional tenure with four consecutive victories and owns an 11-2 professional record overall.
Aliev, meanwhile, hasn’t competed since December 2016, when he earned his first Octagon triumph with a split verdict over Bojan Velickovic at UFC on Fox 22. The 33-year-old Dagestani suffered a first-round knockout loss in his promotional debut against Kenny Robertson at UFC on Fox 14.
