Aldo and Ronda never unified the belts, they were given them and simple defended.Obviously. The last WEC featherweight champ, unified the WEC and UFC featherweight titles after defending the WEC belt twice, and defended the UFC title seven times. Will be a while before anyone surpasses Aldo as the 145 GOAT.
Hendo attempted to unify belts.
Dominick Cruz fought in WeC for the inaugural UFC title which was kind of unique (fighting for a UFC belt in WeC).
Not taking anything from Aldo he just didn’t have to unify or fight for an inaugural belt. He and Ronda were both promoted to being champs and their first fight was defending the belt.
Aldo is absolutely the FW GOAT. Alex and Max are right up there as legends but Aldo is king. His run compares to the greats in other divisions.
