I havent read the whole thread (way too much) but the op is at least correct most did not know much about Eddie. Eddie has been a world class fighter for over 10 years!

He has many great wins and like every great fighter he faces strong opponents who can defeat him and Conor obliterated him. I did not see it coming but whats the problem. Takes nothing away from Eddies very good career.

If you routinely face the top you will loose. As a fighter you are not defined by your losses but how you deal with them and in that regard both Eddie and Conor are true fighters to the heart.

Conor was better than Eddie props to him but lets watch Conors career for some more years before comparing his career to Eddies. He still has to deliver on title defenses.

Btw I thought Chandler won the last fight against Alvarez.

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!

How did most people "Not know" about Eddie? I'm pretty sure anyone watching MMA for the last 3-5 years at minimum would know who he is.

Conor outclassed him in every aspect of martial arts.

" lets watch Conors career for some more years before comparing his career to Eddies."

How many UFC title defenses did Eddie have?
