Eddie Alvarez thinks UFC star Conor McGregor would actually do well in the world of bareknuckle boxing.
Alvarez, a former UFC lightweight champion who lost his title to McGregor in 2016, sees plenty of potential in McGregor if he were to go down the bareknuckle boxing route. Alvarez debuted for BKFC this past April and defeated former UFC title challenger Chad Mendes. Contrary to many’s belief, Alvarez learned that a style like McGregor’s is more suitable for bareknuckle boxing than a brawler’s.
