Former UFC and Bellator lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez sounds like he’s in the early stages of planning his post-fight career.
“I would love to consult with younger fighters just to explain to them the business of this sport because no one values free agency and understands the power in it once you’ve made a name for yourself or won a world title,” Alvarez said on The MMA Hour.
If there’s a fighter who understands the business side of the sport, it is Alvarez.
In 2012, after fighting out his contract with Bellator, Alvarez signed with the UFC as a free agent.
