He's sold as WEC Aldo til today and we get only a decent fighter who only wins by decision mostlyHe hasn't really had any KO's in a very long time. I never really see him hyped up as some knockout artist.
I find his fighting style very pleasing to watch. Always throws deadly leg kicks and is a fantastic striker. Yeah he is not the same killer as he was in the WEC and early UFC days, but he is still great to watch
Yeah, I knew a bunch of retards would enter the thread with zero arguments, the good thing is the ignore button
Very insightful
Was he old at the Conor fight with 28 years of age?
in fight years? sure. He was on top for awhile at that point. Fight was too short to say he made too many errors. Conor beat the most prime Aldo that ever lost. Aldo still had it in him after that fight.
Most ironic post ever.
Ok but what's the parameter you establish to say he was in his prime when he defeated Edgar for the second time and to say he was out of it when he lost to Max in the following fight? How you don't use the appeal to purity type of fallacy to say that?
I like Aldo too but he's had some less that exciting fights but so has everyone. I like finishes but it doesn't seem to understand that doesn't mean exciting fights. There have been lots of exciting decisions and boring fights with finishes. Cro cop vs mir was so bad no one cared after the massive ko. Who's your av btw?
To me, Aldo just became worse and worse, but still better than most guys. We're also not talking about Edgar who was pretty removed from his own "prime". Aldo at a certain point in his career lost his leg kicks and it made him less versatile. His TDD and boxing pivots kept him in and he still has it. Aldo never became washed. Especially for Aldo it was a spectrum of his prime, he wasn't as explosive the more fights he had.
Then why they're on a discussion platform?
He played it too safe after WEC ended, became a boring fighter
