Short-notice replacement John Alessio says things will be different at UFC 145

Sunday was April Fool's Day, and John Alessio had tweeted that he was retiring.

When Monday rolled around and UFC matchmaker Joe Silva emailed him with a short-notice fight - six years after he last set foot in the octagon - Alessio thought the joker's holiday had been extended in the cruelest way.

It was no joke. An injured Matt Wiman was out at UFC 145. Did he want in against Mark Bocek?
