UFC 205 fights to watch
Eddie Alvarez v Conor McGregor
This could be one of the most exciting fights of the year if the build-up is anything to go by.
A freestyle wrestling Olympic silver medallist, Romero has spent much of the intervening period fighting an alleged out-of-competition doping violation which eventually resulted in a six-inch suspension.
The Cuban is an underdog with the bookmakers but if he is able to land some big early blows, he may be able to end the fight before his superior muscle mass starts working against him in the later rounds.
