Anthony Pettis 'not impressed' with Alvarez: 'I don't think he's even a challenge'
Anthony Pettis predicts an easy night against Eddie Alvarez at UFC Fight Night 81.
Top 5 ranked lightweight's Anthony Pettis and Eddie Alvarez are set to engage in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 81 on January 17th at the TD Garden in Boston.
Pettis, who was dethroned by Rafael dos Anjos at UFC 185, has made light work of top contenders Donald Cerrone and Gilbert Melendez. Alvarez, on the other hand, has struggled against the same opponents.
The former Bellator lightweight champion was beaten by "Cowboy" in a gruelling three-round fight last year, and scraped by on the scorecards against Melendez at UFC 188.
