Cerrone is going to be a problem for a lot of guys at 170. He's KOing guys who aren't supposed to get KO'd at 170. Oh, he wants Eddie now. I don't think he should get a title shot at 155 due to success at 170.

Cerrone vs Alvarez 2 would be awesome, but I want to see Cerrone still at 170.

Cerrone needs to stay at 170. It's understanding the Eddie fight is tempting for him but there are guys at lightweight that deserve the shot before him and he's looking great at 170. He's showing crazy finishing power at 170, Cote and Story were never finished by strikes before they fought him. Story also hit Cerrone in the body without him falling over in a heap.

So, Cerrone is 10-2 over the last 3 years (holy crap). Both losses were to RDA. 80% finish rate in that span including a perfect 3 fights, 3 wins, 3 finishes at 170. Oh, and all three fights at 170 have been this calendar year.

I guess Cerrone is just weighing his chances against Eddie Alvarez, who he already has a win over, vs fighting the likes of Maia, MacDonald, Lawler, Thompson, Condit or Woodley. 

It's a pretty easy decision.
