Eddie Alvarez Says Conor McGregor is Not a Championship Fighter

– Eddie Alvarez recently appeared on the Anik and Florian podcast , and shared his thoughts on Conor McGregor. Here is what he had to say…

“Honestly, the first round [of UFC 202] it all looked good but I’ve said it a million times, he’s just not a championship fighter. Not a five, 5-minute round fighter. Never has been, never will be. Some guys can have the chops for it and some guys don’t. I’ve said it from the beginning, I looked at him as a three, 5-minute round fighter and that’s where he’ll be, that’s where he should stay. I think he’s good. I think anything past 8-9 minutes it just starts to look sloppy and looks a little messy.”
