Before starting his professional career, Eddie attended Fordham University where he earned a degree in finance, marketing and communications. Gordon then worked as a finance director, and later a sales consultant, however, after meeting up with his high school friend Chris Weidman, Eddie decided to start training for MMA, and pursue a career in sports. In March 2014, Gordon was cast as one of the members in season 19 of “The Ultimate Fighter“ show, eventually chosen as coach Frankie Edgar’s third pick for the middleweight category, after defeating Matt Gabel.

At UFC 181 in December that same year, he faced Josh Samman, but lost the fight via knockout. The following year Eddie faced Chris Dempsey at UFC on Fox: Machida vs. Rockhold and Antonio Carlos Junior at UFC Fight Night 70, but lost both fights.
