Media HEATED face off - Aldo / Martinez (three angles, short clips - Nogueira is between them in second clip!)

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Comment implies Aldo was instigator - but I am not sure about that?

What are your thoughts?

I really wish Aldo would have gotten that Cruz fight. The UFC should have had him fight Aljo rather than give him Merab, giving TJ the title shot instead. Aldo should have stayed retired. This is a high risk, low reward fight with Martinez.

Oh, as for the face off?

Maybe Jose if fighting out of his contract.. dude had to ask permission to box and IIRC he wanted to be on the Georges vs Nathan card.

I also would like to see Aldo cripple and beat the shit out of Cruz too.

Hopefully the UFC does right by him and gives him some air time to retire in the cage

Agree with most of that!

Regarding retirement, I mean, he always wanted to box, and needs to get this done to do so. Dana always tries to give a kick in the arse on last fight on contract, All I can do is pray that vintage Aldo shows up and gets the win.

As for the Fedor shrug, I am disappoint. You need to nurture your Shookologist spirit.

With a KO win it will be harder for them not to.

So I will pray to JBG for that

To be fair, he openly stated he needs to take this fight to get out of his UFC contract and box. Looking forward to this though.

 

[king hippo]

aldo's still fighting?

 

[NoSmilez]

This is weird. Why are they facing off so early? The timing is a bit off considering they have to do it again tomorrow.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

*oh, BTW (Big?) Nog is between them, you see in second vid.

 

[Jose Beehive]

First time i've wanted Aldo to lose in a long long time.. Pass the torch n that.

 

[BangBang]

Can’t see Aldo winning this. Right time for Martinez, wrong time for Aldo.

Bro, I am dissapoint.

 

[Jose Beehive]

Bro, I am dissapoint.

ha I figured most people won't want to hear it.. I've already mourned Aldo's UFC career, him being back feels weird, especially in this fight, shoulda been Cruz or some shit.. Let Martinez bang bro! onwards to the belt i'm hoping!

 

[Milenkovic]

Apparently the UFC has noone for UFC 301 and gave Aldo a lot of cash to co main, cause they needed star power, and he couldn't say no. That and him wanting to be free from the Zuffa contract so he can box like another poster said

 

[Khaosan]

I like Martinez so pretty disappointed in his lack of respect for the King.

 

[Xanzito]

If you ask my opinion about this, i'll just say Nog needs to lay low on the botox, dude is looking as weird as Wand at this point.

 

[Jose Beehive]

Don't understand this "so he can box" thing, he's been boxing professionally since his last MMA fight..? Has 1 Win, 1 Draw professionally and 1 win in an exhibition which came before those 2.

 

[Harlekin]

He even chuckles and says all is ok. It's just show for the fans.
Nobody would lead that stupid with his head, having his hands back
