On The Record

Eddie Alvarez was brutally honest in his assessment of his loss to McGregor.

I fucking blew it… I did nothing I trained (for), I did the complete opposite of what we planned on a daily basis for 10 weeks. Fighting the way I did was a for sure death sentence and the result was fitting.”
