Y'all really have no clue who Eddie Alvarez is do you?

[WendalClark17]

I know who he is, or was:

A punching bag for the champ from a division below him

 

[Jin Akutsu]

Undefeated & undisputed.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

I really like Alvarez - Poirier. Big match-up for both. Think Eddie almost gets KO'd then goes zombie mode for the win!!!

We should all link this thread anytime TS posts something condescending ever again. He deserves it. Especially with a name like that.

Natural born noob.

For a Conor lover, you ain't so bad normally

I always tell people on this thread, I got my prediction wrong and that much is on me, but people completely miss the point of the thread.

The point was around the majority of Conor supporters being idiots. The guys who make "predictions" without even knowing Conor's opponent. Half the people commenting on this thread to this day - still have no idea how good Eddie actually is, they have no idea about his skill-set, his resume etc. but because of blind Conor obsession they just spout his lines such as "he'll be done in one".

You cannot be predicting fights when you don't know one of the fighters - you look like a n00b.

You should probably change your identity. It's all over for you. How embarrassing

Classic back tracking:

"Oh, I was trying to educate the Conor fans who only watch Conor fight"

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Perceptive fans were able to look past the fighter records and evaluate each fighter based on skills displayed in the cage. That is why many of us, like myself, DID predict Conor would beat Poirer and Alvarez AND were proven correct! You assume everybody that makes predictions that go contrary to the fighters' records is simply ignorant of them. IT IS YOU that is ignorant by using only a fighter's record to predict the outcome of a fight. And THAT is why this thread continues on and on and on.....because after 33 fucking pages YOU STILL DON'T GET IT!!!

Did some people predict this genuinely? Sure. Some people who support Conor, knew about Eddie also and made an informed prediction.

But, in that same breath - a shit load of the Conor fans here, predicting a KO in the first round, who haven't even watched Eddie before - so yeah, they are idiots.

There is nothing to "get", I totally get that I misjudged this bout, I'm not denying that. My issue is with people making predictions on fights based on bias rather than knowledge.

Simple concept really.

You're not biased against mcgregor and his fans lol? Yeah... Right....

Your own name implies bias. You're the last guy who should be calling Conor fans idiots.

Eddie had nothing for Conor. They were right, you were wrong.

There is a stereotype amongst Sherbros that Conor McGregor fans by large are relatively new to the sport and do not watch much else MMA wise other than him. This point is being proven by the minute, since the announcement of his fight with Eddie Alvarez.

Y'all really never seen Eddie have you? Perhaps 1 or 2 of his fights, right?

You may have seen him lose to Cerrone, his boring win over Pettis or even the dos Anjos TKO...

Michael Chandler? Shinya Aoki? Those names mean anything to you? ... Nah, I didn't think so.

Just for educational purposes, Eddie Alvarez has it fucking ALL!

- The guy has KO power in both hands.
- Crisp, technical boxing.
- Solid wrestling, with very good ability to control from the top position.
- Underrated and sneaky BJJ, takes the back very easily.
- Cardio for days, looks the same in rounds 4 and 5 as the first round.
- Heart for days. Let you knock him down or rock him, if his body lets him he'll keep coming.

People keep saying that Conor will defeat him with ease on the feet...

You do know Eddie's chin is probably just as good as Nate Diaz, you know Nate, the guy that Conor couldn't put away in almost 35 minutes of fighting?

Conor has a chance, he always does when it's standing, but stop talking about Eddie Alvarez like you even know who he is or have followed his career at all.

WAR ALVAREZ!

 

[DocK]

As embarrassing as this thread is TS' scoring of Conor Nate 2 was even worse.

 

[MMAAAM]

As embarrassing as this thread is TS' scoring of Conor Nate 2 was even worse.

Let me guess, he had Nate winning.
What a shock.

[guard_passer]

Did you predict Conor over Aldo?

you raped yourself with this thread TS

 

[klnOmega]

Aoki and Chandler? You are selling us on how good Alvarez is by mentioning two dudes who beat him?

 

[klnOmega]

What happened when Eddie found RDA's chin?

Nothing. RDA was on stanky legs, but he took a dozen of Alvarez's best shots and never fell down.

Fucking lol. People like this never seen Eddie fight or follow his career.

Eddie is very good though, though I just think it's a match up thing. But Eddie has been looking like shit for a while though. But, think it's just a bad bad match up for him.

It's not like you needed to have a ton of knowledge of Eddie's career to predict how the fight would go. The fight with Pettis alone was a great indicator of how the fight with Conor would go.

 

[Rebel_LioN]

Nothing. RDA was on stanky legs, but he took a dozen of Alvarez's best shots and never fell down.

Dariush confirmed that RDA had a brutal weight cut for that title fight and that he passed out twice in the sauna. He could've opted to go the Khabib route and call the doctors but he showed up anyways.

 

[Shabutie]

I didn't care who he was tbh.

I'm not even a mctapper fan, but that performance was awful and he should probably retire.

He offered nothing in that mctapper fight.
