Eddie Alvarez is waiting patiently to find out who the winner of the upcoming lightweight championship superfight between Brazilian titleholder Rafael dos Anjos and 145-pound king Conor McGregor is at the UFC 196 pay-per-view (PPV) on March 5, 2016.
The former Bellator 155-pound champion and No. 1-ranked UFC lightweight contender is even doling out advice for "RDA" as he prepares to face "Notorious." Alvarez is in purgatory because McGregor may take aim at the 170-pound title held by Robbie Lawler if he is victorious, and the future meeting between streaking brutes Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson at UFC on FOX 19 in April.
