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?
You don't get any more bent than Ainsley lol.Platinum Perry can save you @The Natural Born Runner , the Platinum Nation offers it's hand in these dark times.
Think about it.

I understand the "premise" just fine lol . My point is you were completely wrong in your predictions and assesments of both respective fighters talents. Yet you're still calling people "not in their right mind " for being RIGHT.You just don't understand the premise at all.
There are 2 layers to this post. 1.) I'm predicting Alvarez will win 2.) I cannot understand how people are so cock-sure that Conor wins with ease, when they don't even know Eddie.
I've totally admitted and ate crow for months about getting the prediction wrong, cool, no problem there.
On the other hand, I cannot understand how so many people banter this thread when the main premise still stands true. It's like those who hate Fedor, and always called him a can crusher - imagine those guys predicting Werdum would beat him, without even knowing who Fabricio is. Then Fabricio gets the choke and the W, and then all those bozo's come out and start shouting "see I told you! He's all hype".
You cannot predict fights when you don't know the second party within the fight. If you luck out and Conor wins, then great, you look like a genius now. Reality is, 90% of his fans are just blind, homosexual fanboys.
Analyse the fights and stop sucking dick is my message to those.

we've gone from a situation where the division had a clear champion that looked unstoppable, to having a mess at the top with the current champion on maternity leave, the previous champion still hiding his head in shame, and the last clear champion moving to welterweight.At least he got to hold the belt. War Eddie.

the belt has fked the division completely.
Do you think there's any chance they will scrap the belt system once fighters have a union and a much bigger say in how pay is distributed? sure the champions will want the system to remain because it puts them in the upper pay brackets by default, but will everyone else want to give the lion's share of earnings to champions who manipulate the situation for the betterment of themselves and to the detriment of the sport and every other contender in the division? and if that's not how it will work, then will those who generate interest and therefore PPV buys want to give up money they feel is rightfully there's just so some random TUF scrubs get a "fair deal" ?Shitty match-making has fucked the divisions. I love that fighter's are leveraging their value for pay and control but at some point enough is enough. The champ has to defend his belt. The UFC has to assert itself and regain control over it's titles before they lose what little legitimacy remains.
If a fighter just wants to hand pick money fights, that's cool, but step out of the title hunt otherwise you're fucking over the fans, the UFC, and all the other fighters trying to make their ways to the top.

The division has been ruined by fat boys (khabib and RDA). Khabib has put the fergie fight on hold 3 times now and RDA pulled out of the conor fight. Those 2 screwed up everything.we've gone from a situation where the division had a clear champion that looked unstoppable, to having a mess at the top with the current champion on maternity leave, the previous champion still hiding his head in shame, and the last clear champion moving to welterweight.
