He hasnt cut yet. Just wait. This is pre cut. Walking around at 148 or soI don't think he looks that bad here. Conor looked worse when he'd get down to 145, Dillasnake looked like a holocaust survivor at 125.
I'm one of the few people who thinks he'll be fine at 135lbs. I don't think the weight cut is the problem—the problem is that he's facing a killer in Moraes. I think Aldo can win via better hands, though.
Going against younger faster fighters late in a career is a bad idea, especially in lower weight classes.He's gonna get smoked. Older fighters generally don't do well when they drop down in weight. 135er's are even faster than 145er's. This will get messy for Junior.
