Eddie surprised me with how quick and accurate he was in the first round. Unfortunately for these guys, Mike's durability gives him the edge.
perry was not moving his head and stayed right in front of alvarez ... huge speed difference between them .... once mike started to move his head and giving angles, perry's toughness and durability was the difference
@@dirtmike6258Perry got to start rolling under hooks etc
Could have not said it anymore perfect
@@dirtmike6258yes & Alvarez stood there & banged instead of being more defensive in his approach, such as foot movement & head movement. Had he done that he could have had a better chance.
People use to say that about Chuck, and it was true for a long time.
Eddie Alvarez a Champion, a warrior, and a Legend, much Love and respect to this man, his wife and his 4 babies!
Eddie is the BADDEST!! I gotta say Eddie Alvarez is the reason I decided to change my life. I've poured concrete for 25yrs, and I weighed as much as 287lbs at one time! Following Eddie's journey has inspired me to get into the best shape I can, I now lift weights 4-5dys a week and weigh 210lbs! I feel great about where I am now and am very proud of what I've achieved. Thank you, Eddie, for being so dedicated and open with your path! Let's get some mud on the ground in Kentucky, brother!!
You’re a king
That’s a cool story! Nice one bro. Congrats on the better health.
@karnhall Thanks so much! You're the second person that's responded to my comment with positivity, and I gotta say, I didn't expect that at all in this day and time of internet trolls and cowardice
@@MichaelH__J thank you so much for the positivity! It really means the world to me!
Eddie legend. This man has gave us so many entertaining fights.
round 1 Eddie was landing crisp and clean
What a true champion, great attitude and viewpoint
Eddie’s an absolute legend.
We need Eddie Alvaez vs Michael Chandler 3 . That’s the fight we fans were robbed of not seeing .
For sure! Imagine a UFC 300 card:
Islam vs Oliveira - LW title
Gaethje vs McGregor - BMF title
Alvarez vs Chandler 3
Poirier vs Nate Diaz
Fiziev vs BSD
Lightweight extravaganza 💥💥
Blame Dana White, Eddie wanted to do the trilogy fight with Chandler, but Chandler is now a Dana "golden boy" and was set up with the UFC show vs. Team McGregor and is still waiting on a fight with Connor, maybe if Chandler loses to Conor(who hasn't won in 5 years), maybe we'll see Dana let Chandler fight Eddie , since Eddie will be pushing 40 by then .
Eddie thanks for that fight,i wish you a speedy recovery.,bkfc getting mad recognition now and rightly so.
Hate that Eddie feels the need to justify them stopping it. All of these guys are a different breed, but Eddie owes the fans absolutely nothing. He's given us nothing but exciting fights the last 2 decades.
He tries to "justify" it because there's a ton of knuckleheads out there even pros saying he quit or he didn't want to keep fighting. Blah blah blah. Thats why
He quit get over it. Real champions don’t quit
@@nanashi5139arent you the same guy that was on a commenting spree trying to defend Izzy after his first Alex loss? 😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
What Is he suppose to do continue on and suffer permanent damage? It wasn't premature.
"Enough of that, Ariel." That should be a t-shirt.
In the works👍🏽
It wasn't THAT damn good bro
Eddie Alvarez…. My favorite fighter of all time.
I find it amazing how fast Eddie recovered from a broken orbital, and serious damage. Even though he was physically smaller than Perry, he was beating him convincingly in the first and second round. But Perry prevailed, shows why he is crowned The King of Violence.
ee.
My respect level for this man has elevated tremendously
Eddie Alvarez is a true warrior, what a iconic career, respect to step in the BKFC ring, he’s a legend 👏👏👏👏
eddie is a legend love this guy.
He’s a legend a true role model and sportsman. Love how he is well spoken, fair, AND TRUTHFUL….not some puffed up fighter BS blowing smoke.
That’s a campion and he’s got heart!
I’m glad you had a corner that protected you
Most real and honest fighter out there.thank you Eddie
Eddie was winning the fight first 2 rds imo . It would’ve been interesting to see how remaining 3 rds would’ve been and if Perry would’ve been able to take them punches for 5 rds . Eddie had great game plan is always a legend
1st yes, 2nd no.
What a great interview. Nice to see the inner workings of negotiations in the ufc.
Eddie looked damn good. Orbitals ain’t a joke though… smart career choice.
He already looks WAY better. Dudes a fkn battle axe 💯
you already stealing his word smh I know I know u say battle Axe all the time too you didnt just hear Eddie say it about Mike smh
Lmao are u on solid food yet, kid?
Mike is “bare knuckle boxing” royalty
Eddie alverez is one of my fabourite charectors in the fight business. I wish i was around for his early career.
Eddie you're a warrior brother. I never thought that young nice kid that lived around the corner from me would grow up to be Philly fighting legend.
Eddie did surprisingly well. Had Perry looking lost in the first 2 - Mike is just way too durable and obviously hits like a truck
Eddie is a legend true OG 👍 of the fight game
Let’s get the rematch
Eddie did not bow out of a hunt, he saved himself from getting fucced up real bad.
What a legend. Champ everywhere he goes!
One of my all-time favorite fighters
I think the UFC Fight Night event was over by the time Perry and Alvarez fought wasn't it?
Yes sir
I actually fell asleep after fight night waiting to watch this so considerably
Im loving BKFC. My new favorite sport. And im a UFC guy from day 1. This is what i wanna see.
It's definitely growing on me as well... it kind of has that UFC in the early to mid 2000s feel imo but there's a lot more action and it's more brutal in a visual sense.
Eddie's always a good interview. Truly 1 of the greats in and out of the cage. A true Champion in all Top Promotions. Your favorite fighter's favorite fighter. #55King #UndergroundKing
Absolut Legend Eddie🤛after owning Mike Perry in the first two rounds such bad luck to have to stop the way the fight was stopped.. Perry is a beast but how much damage can that dude take? Hoping for a possible second bout.. and a W for Eddie
Health well, Eddie. 🙏
You did great Eddie, always a pleasure to watch you perform my man!
These 2 guys beat a bar half to death with their 2nd ones💀they are real killing machines🩸
Big respect🙏🏽so brutal
Bravo 👏 Eddie!! I totally agree with your stopage! Self-care is more important than nothing!
And your family too.
You are a warrior! No matter what 😊
Man these guys heal
Quick
Eddie is the only fighter that I make sure to see every fight that I can (Japan was tough, always had to youtube it til the last 2 fights in One. I first met Eddie when I was bartending and his friends were drinking there all night, and then i saw Eddie(in his Underground days) sleeping in the back. I thought he was just drunk and was going to wake him up and tell him if hes that drunk, hes gotta go home to sleep), here a couple mutual friends grabbed me and said he hasn't even drank, hes been in training for a fight in AC in 2 weeks. Then I went down to AC 2 weeks later and saw him knock someone out in Rd 1, and have seen about 20-25 fights since. Noone can go from the verge of losing to knocking someone out faster than Eddie. Maybe best chin in MMA history. McGregor KO was his worst fight, and I think if Eddie was the challenger, it would have went differently.
How do we fix a broken orbital?
Class act. Always been a fan of Eddie. Respect 🙌
Eddie is still underground king, he was serving it up before the stoppage. Everyone saw it
Thanks for Being great Eddie !! Amazing fighter !!
Damn, all those crazy wars Eddie has been through, that Melendez fight he mentions was in 2015. I hope he doesn’t have CTE.
My hat is off to Eddie , He has a genuine warrior spirit and seems to be humble about it. I can respect that.
Legends man. One of the greatest ever
Great fight to both guy's💪Very entertaining
The holy trinity of Bareknuckle: Mike Perry, Eddie Alvarez and his wife
Ariel tripping saying Perry won first round
Totally agree with his critique of the sports. I reckon BK will be huge as a spectator sport; the action, speed, opportunity for a fight to turn on a dime, more direct then MMA...reckon this has the edge on MMA
Lol do you even watch MMA?because our description sounded exactly like describing mma 🤣
Never really thought of it like that, but even after knowing the results the fight I found myself more involved than I do with some MMA fights. Action packed for sure. This is from someone who thought BKFC wasn’t gonna be around for a long time. These fights are amazing.
I started watching MMA at the end of the 90s. It was awesome to watch but it became so boring. Nowadays every fighter is virtually the same. It became so clean. So tamed. BK is way more entertaining nowadays.
I reckon they're pretty brutal which might keep athletes (and spectators) away but this also means that it's a certain breed that you get to watch. @@keshontruitt3935
Ariel being a wizzle Direct at the beginning of the interview.. dude is a nerd never fought and thinks its fun to go after a fighter's loss
I had my orbital broken and my eye looked way worse. Glad you healed up quick!
Same here! My face looked like beat up meatloaf for 2 weeks 😂
Mike told him that he would Quit and he was only there for a pay cheque
You did great Eddy.
Eddie you're the best! Respect bro
Everyone knew Mike & Eddie would be a banger ! That's why people tuned in. two bad ass dudes ready to throw hands until death lol.
Third round was new round bare knuckles
Who else goes in his Head Fock Mark Henry everytime he says his Name xD it reminds me off MSG Mcgregor Time :D
Man I can’t imagine how the hands feel after a fight ouch but dope to see that wall behind Eddie
Go Eddie Alvarez! Best Ever! Go Alvarez!
Wild that he says boxing is safer than MMA. As someone who does both I prefer MMA any day
Eddie done really well enjoyable fight either way 💯
Eddie has been my favorite for years. Hes my backyard/hometown guy. But hes also one of the most entertaining fighters to Grace Gods earth. Sadly I knew mike was too durable. But he did almost drop mike so I was surprised a little. God bless em both.
Eddie Alvarez The Underground King! 🫡 ✊🏽 still mad @ u for doing RDA like that tho
Eddie says Mike didn't know the correct weight and mistakenly cut an extra pound that he didn't have to cut because his coach told him the wrong weight. I don't think that's accurate because Mike talked about it before the fight and said that he was intentionally cutting that extra pound because he was viewing it as a championship fight and wanted to make championship weight. Mike did it intentionally, not accidentally.
Bare knuckles great from a fans perspective. A lot of damage really quick is the only downfall. I think fights end to quickly
What a way to tell the story of the fight! Every great predator knows when to end the hunt especially when it gets way to dangerous for him…LFG!
25:47 He got you weasel !!! He knows the kind of man you are Ariel !!! The #1 INSTIGATOR
what is he talking about
Ariel literally starting the interview by trolling lol
What a legend
Dana is sickened he missed out on BKFC
Eddie you are a legend brother no regrets God bless 🙏
Don’t make excuses you got dealt with . You could see when you was landing punches . Tbh you and Mike are both true warriors but let’s be honest the best man on the night won . IMHO .
Can't wait to see Eddie fight again in BKFC. His boxing is so crisp.
Chandler Conor talk - 25:40
Im glad he put his health first...one more punch could have shattered the orbital if he already had old wounds and fractures...🙏👍💯
Honestly I would rather watch a rematch between Eddie and Perry, than like Dillon Danis vs Perry. Eddie had a very good fight until the fracture, so it would be interesting to see if he can do different when his orbital is healed. If Dillon Danis fought Perry I already know the fight is over in 1 Minute 😂
Eddies an absolute legend
i think u had him.good work.good call
Can't take anything away from Eddie.. absolute legend and a true warrior. He is embellishing what happened in the corner cause a lot of ppl don't know what happened, not even the announcers. Eddie said i can't see, the corner either didn't hear it or didn't want to hear it. He said it again and one of cornermen said that's it one of them wanted to continue but they called it.
Yeah Eddie was subliminally telling them he was done. He knew what happened & the consequences of continuing. He wasn’t on an ego trip.
Not sure how that's embellishing. That's exactly what he said happened
@@sasso09 he made it seem like it was some group decision or they suggested it.
Legend 💪
Eddy had life orbital damage more than any other ufc champ
Eddie u did great my man. I had u winning via ko or unanimous. Stuff happenes. U did great, champ
The Nate emails was from 2010 that’s when Nate was early in his career and Nate was still working his way up rankings . Greg Maynard and Nate fight had just happened then Nate fought couple nobody’s . Agian Nate was still young then 2010
Hope Eddie fights for one of the bkfc titles and adds to collection. Weight classes are there for a reason and we saw that v mike
Mike destroyed Rockhold tho
Hope Eddie got payed a ton for this .
We love you Eddie
UFC is so watered down nowadays, I don’t even here their advertising anymore and i hardly know a name , honestly I’m tired of waiting for a fight and being let down by UFC
Gave up too much size but weighed more lol
I think it would go the sameway again , Eddie would piece him up then after he shot his wad perry keeps coming an hurts him..
He had Mike with Bambi knees great job eddie
I was fine with everything he said, besides insinuating that he may have won the fight. He gave up, mentally. If anyone knows combat sports, once you go mentally, you have zero chance winning.
As usual Ariel the antagonist. He needs to make Aliyah and never return to the west to bother people.
Great fight 👏
Great fight Eddie......
You looked slick AF....
Agree with giving up the size......
You would have slept him had you been a tad larger ....
Respect bro
One x
Eddie looked really good in the first round , take some time to heal up and run it back
Eddie was winning that fight! It was a barn burner for sure! Mike is an animal and savage. Total respect to both
