    Just watched part of Eddie`s match vs McGregor and he showed none of the lead hand control that Floyd did vs McGregor, so I feel that his boxing skill wasn`t good enough to be an elite MMA fighter, does anyone on this forum agree? (I haven`t seen many MMA fights).

    No. Just a bad matchup. Eddies a top 5 ATG at LW. Won a belt in every org he's been in(Dream, Bellator, UFC) etc.
