what exactly are Eddie Alvarez's wrestling credentials?

[BigNuggetIce]

Alright, I'll start a petition. Will you be the first to sign it. MAKE SHERDOG GREAT AGAIN!

With a slogan like that I'll be the first to sign it.

 

[Emang8]

Man, you described the downward spiral of Sherdog over the past eighteen months perfectly.

18 months? Try 6 years, oh wait I just saw your 2014 join date.

Follow his MMA career and you'd know that he's a very competent wrestler. Here's a nice video breaking down some of Eddie's wrestling. I time stamped it

high school? was it during recess?

No, I'm pretty sure if it was after school.
I don't get the joke.

 

[BigMuffler]

He's a high school wrestler. A prep school wrestler.

I don't think he won a state championship, but he was a prep high school all american

And as we all know... see sig.

You do realize he turned Pro as a teenager right? So college was him fighting professionally.. Where did McJoker wrestle and aren't all his losses by sub? And didn't a 125lb sub Conor? Facts are reality.. Personal opinion tends to be dillusional and one sided.

 

[agibmxmma]

No offense, but are you 'tarded, mate? It isn't great. Its why sherdog has become such a shithole in the last year or so.

The last year? Try the past 5 or so!

 

[Me&MrJones]

Compared to Conor Eddie is an Olympic wrestler and NCAA Division black belt.

 

[dublinsligo1916]

He's a high school wrestler. A prep school wrestler.

I don't think he won a state championship, but he was a prep high school all american

It blows my mind people are talking about Eddie like he's a grappling powerhouse when he literally only has a high school wrestling pedigree and comparable BJJ experience to Conor. Chad Mendes was lights out a better wrestler and boxer than Eddie. The only thing Eddie has on Chad is 10 pounds. Chad went 2 rounds. Lets see how long Eddie can go.

 

[Xaero]

So... what's colon's striking credentials?

 

[Nobru]

If eddie was a great wrestler they would not book conor against him

What an annoying video. I wanted to check it out but it was a 3 second clip followed by two sentences being put on the screen for 45 seconds. Repeat. Repeat.

Make a wall between America and ....Ireland? Lmao

Shit talk Conor all you want, he will forever be the king of panic wrestling.

Actually Chad walks around out of camp around 186-188.. Alvarez walks around out of camp at 184-186. And as I mentioned before, he turned Pro fresh out of HS!! So his college was fighting professionally!
