STOPPAGE
Great response round by Perry. He just made it a dog fight and he is the bigger dog in there. Alvarez is slowing down and since speed is his biggest weapon, that could be a problem. He needs more answers.
WHAT!!!!!!?
Eddie Alvarez tells his corner he can’t see and his corner immediately stops it! Not sure what happened that Alvarez can’t see but they double checked, he confirmed he can’t see and the corner stopped it. WOW
