So many people sleeping on Aldo and saying he's washed like the man wasn't up 2 rounds before he lost.

I think we're going to get a trilogy.

Aldo is still a great fighter, but he was slowly drowning in the first fight and things will likely go similarly unless he can make big changes. Still excited to see it anyway, tonight's card is packed with elite MMA.

I think the fact that he's been around so long, and is wound a little tight, makes people forget Aldo is only 31.

What in the fuck, that was one of the worst Herb Dean stoppages ever.

That was an awful stoppage. Herb made some amateurish officiating mistakes. For one, he was standing at a terrible angle, and secondly Homasi was clearly defending himself intelligently (he didn't even really get touched).

Same. I smell an upset.

Aldo's career is in trouble if he can't pull it off.

I don't think Aldo will be in trouble if he doesn't win tonight. The torch has to pass at some point. The division is in good hands if Max wins tonight or the third fight should they go for a trilogy.

I think if Aldo loses, he'll probably continue taking fights and keep moderately active until Max gets knocked off or he loses again, at which point he probably will retire. He also wants to do boxing though, you he might ask for a release or waiver and keep himself busy with boxing until another shot at the title comes along.

I think the fact that he's been around so long, and is wound a little tight, makes people forget Aldo is only 31.

Yup.

Man, I really hope Aldo does NOT win. I feel I moved on and the division should move on as well. Bad enough that Frankie is still good enough to kill contenders after having already gotten 372 title shots. (Holloway is also a fresh matchup for everybody, Aldo already fought Cub/Frankie twice)
Some fresh blood would be nice. Have Aldo fight Cruz in a UFC 2017 superfight!

Yeah not sure why he's taunting when he doesn't have the skills to follow it up

He's also the one with way less activity

I was in the kitchen, what did Herb do this time? What was the bad warning? Stalling?

teymur is more of a counterfighter so his opponent kept putting his hands down to taunt him and teymur would just stand there waiting, and herb warned him for timidity/back stepping

mind you teymur is being active the entire round, he threw more punches that round

Oh boy. Eddie's banshee wife is going to be extra over the top today with the violence Gaethje is bringing to this fight.
