Anyone who is remotely clued up about MMA knows he does NOT deserve this but hey if the UFC have fooled people into thinking he does then why not. I just hope those same people who say Connor deserves it are also ok in their jobs and lives if they get by passed by someone who hasn't done half the work but gets the reward by shouting the loudest..
He fought a 36 yr old who was probably only number 10 on the ranks because UFC artificially put him there.. How he avoided Lamas, Edgar, Mendes, Bermubez, Korean Zombie and Lentz just shows that people don't have a fucking clue whats going on. Even if Aldo got injured the UFC would have Connor wait as they are shit scared he will lose.. Actually thats a lie they would have him fight CM Punk in the meantime to solidify his number 1 slot
McGregor deserves it one million percent. Edgar already got handled.
No, that is the whole arguement you see, its that he doesn't deserve it. Fine though, give him Aldo, should bring the lulz.
Yes he does
Argue it out with yourself, its not going to matter in the end because McGregor isn't getting Aldo's belt.
The following quote sums up the 'McGoat' phenomenon quite well:
"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
Aldo's only shot of winning will be on the ground. Within the first minute he will realise this and he will be spamming takedowns. No FW hits with the power and precision of Conor. Aldo will feel like he's in there with a welterweight and people will see a timid and desperate side of him. He is going to get that dejected little boy look that all of Conor's opponents get real fast.
A lot of people are going to be very mad at how beta Conor makes Aldo look. It will ensure years of hate (and money) towards the Irishman.
Conor is so good he ALREADY has more notoriety than Jones and Rousey.
