Busquet sent out a feeler on Twitter:

And Alvarado was able to agree to the insane terms:
Big news: @olivierbusquet and I have agreed to an MMA fight. My 150k to his 120k, he weighs in at 187.5, I weigh in at 165. #letsdothis

Naturally, Alvarado got his face punched in and dropped the bout when his corner threw in the towel ahead of the fourth round.
