<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/ManUtdShrager" target="_blank">Jonathan Shrager</a> talks with elite MMA Lightweight/UFC debutant Eddie Alvarez regarding supposed "UFC Jitters", fighting at the iconic home of combat sports The MGM Grand, how the UFC modus operandi compares to his previous promotions, his opinions on Bjorn Rebney's departure and Scott Coker's succession at Bellator, his two barnburners with Michael Chandler, the chance to finally conclude the speculation on his position amongst the world's elite lightweights, the tough baptism of fire represented by Donald Cerrone, and the title implications of a victory over "Cowboy", his bonus aspirations within the UFC and the contentious issue of weight-cutting within MMA.</p>
I'm so torn on this fight. Alvarez has been one of my favorite guys to watch outside of the UFC for a long time but I'm also a huge fan of Cerrone. I want to see Eddie do well in his debut but don't want to see Cerrone lose his momentum.
