Albert Alvarez was hesitant to begin a mixed-martial-arts career, given the fame of his brother who is seven years older.
They share many traits and aspects of life, and they were also both skilled high school wrestlers in the Philadelphia area.
But Albert was concerned that his brother Eddie, who is 21-2 in MMA,
would cast too long of a shadow for Albert to get a fair shake in the
sport.
So whom did Albert turn to for advice? Eddie, of course.
