Prediction: correct Alvarez   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Both guys are very hittable, got good power, and both recover well from beimg hit. I'm sure Alvarez will hit the deck first as he almost always does, we'll just have to see who hits the deck last.

Gathje said he will GTFOed eventually and I think it might be about time. I say a UFC-championship experienced Underground King rocks him end of Rd1 and finishes in 2.

Alvarez is the victim of too many great wars. His chin can't take anymore. Gaethje hits harder than McGregor....nuff said

Alvarez v Gaethje is fun to think about. Both have fight ending power, and both can be very exciting to watch. I believe Gaethje is faster, but Alvarez has the ability to make this a boring fight. Gaethje needs to knock him out quick, and I think he can. We saw Alvarez struggle with Poirier, a less powerful and explosive guy. So I think Gaethje rocks him in the first round and finishes him in the second.

Prediction: wrong Gaethje   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

I see both guys getting hurt at points too, but I think Gaethje will put money in the bank with those leg kicks and eventually it will get to Alvarez late in the fight and Gaethje will tko him in the 3rd. Should be a crazy wild fight. I think Alvarez will instigate a few takedown attempts to keep Gaethje off of him. Of course wild fights like this there's always a chance someone takes an illegal shot at some point, or something crazy, but here's hoping that doesn't happen.

Prediction: correct Alvarez   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 3  

This was exactly the firefight I wanted to see, so stoked about Eddie pulling through. 


Hope this means that we'll get Eddie/Dustin 2 now, that as the main event of a fight night would be awesome.

Alvarez is now the current WSOF linear champion.

In the UFC, Alvarez has now beat a Strikeforce, WEC, UFC, and now WSOF lightweight champion.

Eddie impressed me. He has definitely improved over the Porier fight.
