Kevin Lee Was Embarrassed By Eddie Alvarez’s UFC 205 Loss
Kevin Lee spoke with MMAjunkie about Eddie Alvarez’s loss at UFC 205. Some highlights are below:
On Alvarez being beaten by McGregor: “It’s definitely frustrating. I was frustrated as hell the night of the fight. Eddie embarrassed the entire division. I don’t understand why he could come out with a game plan like that. Conor’s shown that he don’t get emotional in there. He makes these guys get emotional and I don’t understand, it’s not an emotional game. You can’t get sucked into that. To lead with a power strike every time against – Conor’s got great timing, he’s got great movement. You got to come up with a good game plan to beat him and Eddie just embarrassed the entire division.”
On Alvarez’s loss: “I was embarrassed for him. If I ever see Eddie I’ll slap the hell out of him. It was embarrassing and it embarrassed us all. I’m 100 percent confident I’m going to get that chance. We’re just bigger men up here. (McGregor) ran into a good one in Eddie. Eddie came out like an idiot. He’s supposed to fight good against guys like that.”
