Could Eddie Alvarez make FW ?

[NotoriousMillions]

You are literally the only person in this thread who mentioned Conor. And Eddie is 5'7, he was shorter than RDA (5'8) and Conor (5'9).

Yeah...

Eddie is not 5'7, and height doesn't mean shit anyways. Is Max bigger than DC? He's taller.<{cruzshake}>IQ here is just mind-blowingly low.

 

[NotoriousMillions]

Golovkin does not have a 69 inch reach. And lol at even mentioning Eddie in the same sentence as the beast that is Golovkin, he'd knock your hero out cold without breaking a sweat.

Oh sorry, it's 70. I forgot every inch counts for you LMAO.

The point is Gennady has short arms just like Eddie. That's the only thing I was comparing, the fact that if you actually have footwork you don't need long arms - which is actually a knock on MMA, not boxing. So why don't you calm down and stop spazzing out you insecure little boxing virgin. And learn to read too you illiterate inner-city dork.

Not that it matters but GGGs reach actually is 69.5 it's "became" 70.5 later in his career.

Eddie's a great fighter but I feel like his proportions would be way more suited to Featherweight than Lightweight if he dropped some muscle mass, the guy is comically jacked. I get why he has the muscle but it seems kind of excessive and if he lost it he'd be able to make FW pretty comfortably.

He's 5 ft 7, and has a 69 inch reach.

Why the hell would he drop down? He just gave Justin gathje his first loss he can clearly hang at lw so there's no reason to make 45

Because Eddie is turned closer to the camera...

You somehow managed to get offended on Conor's behalf even though I didn't mention him or his fight with Eddie. That's an impressive amount of mental gymnastics to get to that point.

And my point is that Eddie is obviously carrying an excessive part of muscle mass that he works to maintain, if he lost some of it, he might be able to make FW.

Click the link I had in the post you quoted. You can't wear shoes during a fight.
Or better yet, rewatch the RDA/Alvarez fight. RDA is noticeably taller.

Hell watch any Eddie Alvarez fight. I can't think of a single fighter Eddie has faced in his entire career that he was taller than.

That photo I posted neither guy had shoes on. In the photos of the link you posted the photos are clearly not centered.

 

[Bones245n4847]

He could probably make 135, he was dwarfed in his most recent fights and seems to be 5'6.5 or so. He can probably look Chad mendes eye to eye

He's barely taller than Frankie who is 5 ft 6.

Guy. Every fighter Eddie fights he's shorter than. All of them.

Patricky is 5'7.

Eddie is barely taller than his friend and training partner Frankie Edgar. He's that short.

You clearly can see RDA arms crossed over Eddie, lmao not closer. EXPOSED.


hahahahaha, I know you're game little man. Nobody said shit about Eddie's height, don't pretend like this isn't a whole ploy to discredit Eddie to discredit Conor.

Eddie doesn't need to lose muscle mass, he has a big frame. Do you not see how wide his base is? Do you suggest Tyrone trim muscle to make LW too?

You're paranoid bro, Conor's living rent free in your head.

Look at the picture I posted of him beside Frankie, there is no way in shit Eddie is taller than 5 f 7.

I've seen most of Gennady's fights and I've never seen his reach listed at 69. He seems to be listed at least as 70. And tbh he does not look like he has short arms at all, and never seems to be at a significant reach disadvantage.

It was just a silly post all round, unsurprisingly. Does Eddie have a good jab like Golovkin? Of course he fucking doesn't, and he's an out and out manlet, just how your boy likes them.

What the fuck are you saying? Fucking hell you are numb in the head. You need to go on the ignore list, ASAP.

That's because he's not a piss poor boxer. Piss poor boxers have reach problems.

Eddie is leaning over and bald, Frankie is standing up straight with his head up and spiked hair.

He's very clearly two inches taller than Frankie.

FYI, Pettis is 5'10.

Enough with the BS. He's been measured by professionally trained doctors in licensed commissions. You don't know what you are talking about, but just spouting speculative nonsenese like every other Sherdork.

Just stop.

 

[NotoriousMillions]

Just stop.

So because some guy clearly messed up measuring one time, all of a sudden some virgin on Sherdogger using poorly-angled photos knows better?

... You mean every time? He has 3 different listed UFC heights that range from 6'2 to 6'3 to 6'5
Fighters are billed at made up heights all the time. Cain, Reem, Carwin, Mir, Alvarez, etc. It happens constantly.

Brendan Schaub is billed at 6'4 lol

And how many times was he measured at 6'5? lmao

Keep making shit up. Those people have measuring tape, you don't. Deal with it.

 

[Taric]

Keep making shit up. Those people have measuring tape, you don't. Deal with it.

If Carwin is 6'2, his height was done wrong 3 times.
If Carwin is 6'3, his height was done wrong 3 times.
If Carwin is 6'5, his height was done wrong 4 times.
