The Weekly Grind: Eddie Alvarez hold pads for Shaq, McGregor gets float parade at Maltese Carnival

The life of a professional fighter isn’t all glitz and glamour.

As if getting punched, kicked, kneed, choked and twisted into a pretzel on a regular basis isn’t enough, fighters attract a general wackiness that makes their lives, well...interesting.

To commemorate these day-to-day hardships, slip-ups, pranks, and more, we bring you, “The Weekly Grind.”

Amazing time on @belowthebelt with @ealvarezfight @supersagenorthcutt and @brendanschaub Mario kart for the win!! #passion #weareone

Having a great time with my fellow Maltese’s at La Karnival Ta Malta See you guys soon
