Looks like Eddie wants this fight. pretty badly.


It's an interesting bout that I'd watch and I feel would be competitive. Avlarez has awesome TDD and good boxing. Definitely a tough style for khabib.

Not sure I want this before Tony vs Nurmy but if that fight can't get made, I'd be happy with Alvarez vs Khabib.

I agree completely because as Al, and before him Gleison Tibau, showed, if you have good technical wrestling you can avoid being held down by Khabib and he doesn't look nearly as scary as he does against fighters who supposedly have good tdd but really they're just great athletes. 

So #wouldwatch Khabib/Eddie but I agree Tony deserves it more and Conor has more people wanting to see him get "smashed" so that will probably happen first.

I mean, Eddie gets wobbled in just about every fight and Khabib does have power despite not having the best technique. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Khabib rock him standing, then pound him out.
