Knowing that Aldo is the worst stylistic match up for Edgar and that he beat him when he (Edgar) was in his prime years even though he was going downhill back then.

The only question is: Has Aldos chin fully recovered from the knockout loss to McGregor?
Chad Mendes went out there and fought not too long after getting TKO'd by McGregor and he got knocked out in a very weird way. This could happen to Aldo especially because he actually got knocked the fuck out.

My brain says that Aldo is going to dominate and maybe even finish Edgar in the later rounds but my heart says that Edgar will win via TKO/KO since Aldos chin is questionable at the moment..
 
its not.

Aldo will make it look easy.

He got caught, if he never fought Conor he'd be 1/3 fav and rightfully so.

I respect Edgar and he can win this fight obv but I'm v confident of an Aldo win unless hes completely gone mentally.

Have you seen an Edgar fight?

The only Edgar fight in which he was an easy opponent was the one that hasn't happened yet.

I don't like his whining and his cringe-worthy Twitter posts (irrespective of the real author), but he's no easy fight for anybody in that division...
 
Going with Edgar....I'm a huge fan of both fighters.

I can see this going either way. I do believe however that it won't be a close fight this time. Somebody is getting finishes or dominated I think.
 
It is because we don't have a clue about how confident Aldo is right now
 
As a huge Aldo fan, I'm going to have to favor Edgar on this one.

Hoping Aldo pulls off the win
 
Both are amazing fighters.
But Frankie is my favorite this time.
 
Both guys are awesome and I love them both but I have no clue what's gonna happen.
I'm happy if either guy wins.
It would be nice to see Edgar get it cause he would be a 2 division champ and he said he will go down to 35 eventually and hopefully have a chance at being the first 3 div champ

Yeah, agreed. We're only confused because Aldo got knocked out in 13 seconds and we just have no idea what he'll be like in his first fight back. It's impossible to predict, otherwise we'd all be going the obvious 'aldo wins' route.

Whatever people have been saying about Aldo, you can't deny he's a warrior though. Gets knocked out in 13 brutal seconds to the biggest cunt in the UFC (from the fighters perspective, not bashing him), and straight away gets back into the mix by taking on Frankie Edgar!
 
I really really think that this fight is going to end in first round KO but I have no idea who will win. It's gonna be a shocking fight I think
 
I have Frankie winning via USADA.
Aldo hasn't physically looked the same since.
Also Frankie is training partners with Edson Barboza which I imagine is one of the best training partners you can have when facing Jose Aldo.
