Default Fight of the Year: Alvarez vs. Hansen

My pick for fight of the year so far. From Dream 3 this past weekend: Joachim Hansen vs. Eddie Alvarez



Part 2


Alvarez looks good to take the tourney.

The Uno/Ishida and Diaz/Inoue fights were also excellent. It's great to see Uno back in top form.

It was a great fight. The entire event was really good. I was so happy when I saw the Uno vs Ishida fight and how it panned out.

Excellent! Both men were extremely well conditions...but Alvarez seemed to have a much better idea what to expect from Hansen...That looping right counter and the way he has already started to grab the left knee almost before the clinch begins.

Really good show.
