Kampmann took an early lead when he rocked Thiago, but Thiago won the round back in the end.

10-9 Thiago

@Lopati True but in the UFC before Aldo, Alves was the big dawg when it came to leg kicks.

thiago has to have the hardest leg kicks in the UFC, well maybe not hardest because of the size difference between him and the heavyweights but body size wise to how hard his leg kick is ridiculous.
