Everton fan Edward Alvarez celebrates becoming UFC championThe 32-year-old Alvarez has proudly worn his Everton shirt in photographsEverton fan Edward Alvaraez has clinched the UFC lightweight title after defeating Rafael dos Anjos in a thrilling contest. Alvarez, who has been pictured on Twitter wearing his Blues shirt, has had an up and down MMA career. He had bags of talent and was destined to become the next best UFC fighter but after facing a prolonged court battle, he finally made it onto the scene only to be defeated by Donald Cerrone.  However, in four short minutes, Alvarez, who was the underdog against Anjos, became the new UFC lightweight champion on Friday. Alvarez became the first fighter in history to become the Bellator 155 champion as well as a UFC champion after his successful win against Anjos. The UFC fighter is full of confidence and even stated he’d take a ‘gimme fight’ against Connor McGregor next. The 32-year-old American is a mixed martial arts expert but clearly enjoys Premier League football and he was pictured proudly wearing the Everton shirt. He’ll be hoping Ronald Koeman and his side can produce success of their own this season!  Alvarez isn't the only Everton-supporting world champion out there Liv Echo |
