Eddie Alvarez is one of the few MMA legends still competing in combat sports, and being 40 and having more than 40 professional fights, it’s safe to assume the end of his career is near.
But how close is retirement for “The Underground King”?
It seems the combat sports won’t get a heads-up, as that’s something that Alvarez wants to keep close to his vest. Alvarez, who returns on Jan. 25 in the main event of BKFC’s KnuckleMania 5 against fellow veteran Jeremy Stephens, wants his decision to hang up the gloves to be between him and his family and also not surrounding any competition.
