aldo talking shit after pulling out of a fight and running away?
LOL

Yeah, it's a fight, anything can happen. The better fighter on the night will win. Unless it goes to decision and the 3 worst judges in MMA are working that night.
Boxing stance is also horrible for legkicks because you shift your weight to your front leg, so that won't help him. What will help against legkicks is catching the leg if youre a good wrestler.. but Conor isn't. He should but his balance in his rear leg if he wants to avoid the legkicks. But Aldo always disguises his legkicks so it will be difficult.
And Aldo did not fight good wrestlers with poor striking. He fought Hominick, Florian, KZ, Edgar and Mendes twice.
I just knocked on wood.
Well truthfully it is cheap bristol board but I hope it will suffice.
Sure does. Give it another knock there incase Cecil Peoples steps in as a last minute replacement refeere after Mazzagatti finds out he's got the boot and goes full postal on the other refs just before the fights start.
Since you mentioned Cecil Peoples I knocked on an old Oak casket I just happen to have laying around.
With that being said, who do you favour if it goes to decision ?.
aldo is an all time great. He is going to smoke that shamrock like a finely rolled joint.
Well, you can check them as well. I don't think Conor will as Aldo throws them so quick. But I think Conor will keep Aldo on the back foot and press forward, which will probably play into Aldo's hands if he wants to take him down.
I said he has fought good wrestlers with poor striking. Not all of his opponents were good wrestlers with poor striking. Just to say; I don't think you could put any of those fighters on a par with Conor or Aldo's striking. Mendes is a good counter puncher with power, but he swings a bit wild and his technique is not great, imo.
But his stance makes it difficult to check kicks, mainly because it's sideways.
Maybe it's not on par but it's def not poor. You made it sound like Aldo was winning because he's fighting poor strikers.

Conor's stance will play right into Jose's strengths.
Yeah lads, if you're thinking that Conor's stance is going to be a big factor in Aldo winning or doing damage, it's much like the "Wrestler Question" and not having a whole lot of faith in other facets of Aldo's game. Can you really see Aldo winning by TKO, leg kicks? Unless he catches Conor on the knee and it gives out.
