They said what?! Pros react to Eddie Alvarez's split decision win over Anthony Pettis
It wasn't pretty, but Eddie Alvarez got the job done against Anthony Pettis in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 81. Just like Rafael dos Anjos did, Alvarez smothered Pettis to nullify his striking advantage and walked out with a split decision win. Here's how the pros reacted to it on Twitter.
My wrestling coach @IzzyStyle has been bragging about how good showtime has been looking this camp, I got him for the win #UFCBoston
