Conor McGregor's chance to make history and the first UFC event in New York City is less than a month away, and anticipation is building ahead of a fight that everybody who has even the slightest interest in the sport will be fixated on.
Conor hasn't fought at 155lbs since Cage Warriors, while Eddie Alvarez will give up a significant size advantage, so for many this fight is a difficult one to call, but MMAJunkie forced the issue with a number of UFC fighters and made them pick a side.
Brad Pickett, Stefan Struve, Louis Smolka and Ovince Saint Preux were among those who gave their thoughts on how the fight might pan out.
A mixed reaction, as to be expected. In the case of Pickett and Struve, you'll always get fighters going with people they have trained with in the past, but it's interesting to see how split the views were overall.
We'll be hearing McGregor vs Alvarez predictions for the next three or four weeks, but it's always interesting to see what the fighters have to say. It's just a shame we didn't hear from Dominick Cruz this time.
