He looks very good technically with his boxing, but he’s noticeably less powerful. Marlon had way more power in his hands (just way shittier efficiency and technique) and even rag dolled him in the clinch once.
Aldo absorbed marlons strikes but was getting hit way too much.
Aldo also refused to throw any kicks or knees, it was extremely obvious he was going for a boxing only attack.

Yan, like aldo, is very patient fighter. Very planted on the feet but picks and chooses his strikes very well. Never punches or kicks himself tired. Physically a tank. But the one thing is that he’s tricky with his hands, and has dynamite in both of them. Bad matchup imo. Don’t see how Aldo can outslick Yan, he gets hit way too much
 
Aldo looked slower and his punches looked weaker. His cardio looked decent but that was about it. He was taking one to give one and that was not something Aldo did at his peak. He used to be very hard to hit clean.
 
After one fight he questionably won at 135 against maybe the best striker in the division, after he has knocked out countless guys a weight class up, even rocking Max multiple times in their first fight you've come to this conclusion?

How about you stop posting?

Aldo could get starched by Yan in 10 seconds at UFC 251 and it still has nothing to do with and does not validate your opinion.

FOH.

Ur really dumb.
Petr could be the best striker in the division. Obviously u have never cut weight before or have any idea of how much an extra 10 lbs does to your body from a power output standpoint. Anyone with fucking eyes can see he doesn’t have power at 135. Comparing his wins to 145 is completely different Aldo body type.

Also you should know that when going down a weight class. Not only do you have to diet harder, you have to do a significant more amount of cardio to make the weight. This makes your cardio go up but your power down.

Lmao you are the dumb one. Let's see his power vs Yan.
 
Aldo hasn’t had much stopping power since WEC. Most of his stoppages were from volume of strikes over the course of the fight. Even his Mendes stoppage was more technique than power.

Yeah but he has been body shotting people lately. He was fast and explosive but I wouldnt call him a huge puncher
 
He is past his prime. Thats for sure. He will get kod stiff.

The best striker in the division was getting worked by Riviera untill the last 15 seconds of every round
 
If Aldo can show up even 85% of his old self he'll win.

Sadly though my opinion is he's gonna lose a SD.

To address TS, he's has exactly 1 BW fight. That's not exactly a plethora of information to make a decision off.
 
Aldo is fighting an uphill battle .....Sometimes an aging fighting has one great performance left .... I hope this is it
 
Everybody is saying " usman is boring" "max did won that fight", but nobody talking about Petr Yan, he is going to legend and wiped out this division, Henry ducked away, and fuck your usman fuck your masvidal, If he was ireland or american, you would produce your oral saliva all the day, fucking idiots

Aljamain will smash him.
