Eddie Alvarez is an American mixed martial arts fighter and former BodogFIGHT welterweight champion.
It has been rumored that both Affliction and the UFC have expressed interest in signing the rising star and Philadelphia native, however Bellator Fighting Championships signed Alvarez to an exclusive deal in late 2008 and he went on to win the promotion's 2009 lightweight tournament becoming their first lightweight champion.
Alvarez defeated former UFC fighter Josh Neer in a Bellator superfight in May of 2010 and will make his first title defense later in the year against Bellator's 2010 tournament winner, Pat Curran.
