Eddie Alvarez was a guest on my show, The MMA Hour, yesterday.
We got to talking about the Gilbert Melendez, and he said he would love to talk to Scott Coker about putting that fight together.
So, we called Coker up and gave Eddie the chance to pitch him as to why this fight should happen ASAP.
It was a pretty cool moment in the history of our little show.
You can watch it again here:

It goes down at the 1:44:10 mark. Let the entire show load before fast-forwarding. Or you can download it on iTunes.
Ed Soares was in studio, and we also talked to Ralek Gracie about not getting paid by FEG.

I can't tell you how good it is you write what time it took place. Half of these hack journalists with mma shows force you to sit through an hour of amateur night with their garbage comedy to listen to a 2 minute bit.
You have enough confidence that you don't have to trick people into listening to your show
In case fast-forwarding isn't your thing, we made it even easier to check out the exchange:

good stuff
If this fight doesnt happen it would probably be because of Bjorn, Coker has co-promoted with M-1, brought over Aoki, SF fighters have fought in DREAM, Shark Fights, KOTC, etc...I believe some have even been allowed on Bellator undercards
Hopefully they can make this happen
Great stuff. Thanks, Ariel.
By the way, Eddie would fack up Melendez bad.
I liked the show man. I'm also very interested in this Anderson Silva documentary. It will be funny to see certain people on this forum up in arms if Chael comes off looking like an ass. LOL.
lmao Gilbert aint even worthy enough to carry Eddies spit bucket around.
Now you know why Coker is dragging his feet. Alvarez would kill Gilbert Melendez.
eddie looks like hes on another level. crisp combos, stiff leg kicks, good head movement, level changes like a motherfucker. bro is just unreal.
