Bellator’s Josh Neer is glad he won’t have to chase Eddie Alvarez around cage

Veteran Josh Neer will be the first to tell you he’s
not getting the right match-ups. He’s a knockout artist, so naturally,
he finds himself chasing opponents or flat on his back.

He thinks differently about his non-title fight with Bellator
lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez at Thursday’s
Bellator 17 event.

“He doesn’t back down, and this is the thing I love about this fight,”
Neer told MMAjunkie.com today. “He is always coming
forward, and he never takes a step backward.”
