Guest Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 So Eddie Alvarez is back to bellator, according to some sources they say if he loses he can walk but if he wins he needs to fight Chandler for a 3rd time. I was hoping to see eddie in the UFC and Bellator Screwed him bad. What are your thoughts? I think he goes out wins this then wins the 3rd and maybe can get out?

Guest Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Awesome fight, but Alvarez beating Chandler after a long lay off and Chandler looking absolutely disgusting against a tough-to-KO Rickels? No chance in hell. Alvarez will lose the fight, his stock will decline and he will stay as lightweight contender in Bellator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 See I think that Alvarez can and will beat Chandler. Don't get me wrong Chandler has looked great but I think that Alvarez is used to that pressure and will be able to get the W. I mean if he lost he could walk away and if the UFC offers him another contract he could take it even though the numbers would be lower. I don't think the layoff will affect him all that much, I mean look at others who have come from layoffs and can compete the same if not better. Alvarez has constantly been training with edson barboza and Frankie Edgar so I still say yes he takes this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markyosullivan Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Surprised to see this as the Co-Main event though then again Rampage and Tito Ortiz are probably more well known than the likes of Eddie Alvarez and Chandler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacman Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Wait so does Alvarez have to win a LW tournament to earn the shot or does he just get it. I thought they were all about earning shots by winning the tournaments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Wait so does Alvarez have to win a LW tournament to earn the shot or does he just get it. I thought they were all about earning shots by winning the tournaments. Nope he is getting the rematch for the PPV on nov 2nd. They say you earn the shot but I can see why they want Chandler vs Alvarez II because they need to have a really good card to make some money for their first PPV. I think its dumb they are going with PPV it goes against what they said they were about because I can see them doing less tournaments. Also I think you are right Tito vs Rampage is Main event since people know them more since they where in UFC and rampage in pride. For most "mma" fans if the fighters aren't in the UFC they dont know about them. come on now some people ask you if you train UFC and not MMA lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
