I understand why he was frustrated with conor from prefight antics, but Aldo has been classless since and I rooted for Aldo vs mcgregor, I hope mcgregor beats him again as Aldo has lost me as a fan.

from bloodyelbow

You will come back (to the featherweight division) with your tail between your legs after what happened, after that embarrassment," Aldo toldEsporte Espetacular (h/t Guilherme Cruz of MMA Fighting). "You will come back. My hand almost caught you, but when it does for good, you will sleep."

"He's a lion when he's attacking, but a kitten when he's getting beat up," Aldo said. "Everybody saw in his eyes that he's just a p---- that quits when he's getting beat up. That's what we saw."


The Rio de Janeiro native is campaigning hard for his shot at redemption against McGregor and vows "run through him" when they meet again.

"I'm waiting for the rematch," he said. "It's the right thing to do in my opinion because there was no fight, and everybody wants to see a fight. Everybody wants to see me beating him up, and that's what I'm going to do. I will run through him, that's a fact. I don't see other scenario in my head besides going there and winning, and getting my belt back."
 
I don't see the problem with what he stated, it's all true...

I find all of it slightly distasteful but it's a combat sport.

Not everyone is going to be Randy Coture, Mousasi, GSP, Fedor or Machida.

For some reason, Aldo's trash talk/rebuttals come off as super bitchy but I just don't think he's in any way prepared for this game.
 
He said he would run through him the last time too and then he pulled out and then he got another chance and then he got KTFO in 13 seconds.
 
Just a guy selling a fight. When Conor does it, everyone licks his balls.

No because Aldo represents the fighter that get doesn't get the opportunities that guys like mcgregor, sonnen,sage,paige,ronda and many others get.
Him losing means that the guy the company favors wins. That is why Nate Diaz Saved mma.
 
No im not, Aldo is a f*cking a legend and featherweight GOAT anybody that has seen most of his interviews would know the guy is super humble and spends his free time helping others.

Also never leeched off welfare and worked his ass off from the bottom of the ladder to rise to the top.
 
Aldo could have acted like a classy champ after the loss. He instead acts like a little child. I lost a ton of respect for him.
I don't think I will be on Aldo's side in future.

sage and paige are the only ones that the UFC pushed, the other fighters pushed themselves. Nate diaz did not save mma, if conor would have won i guarantee mma would grow alot faster. Aldo was champ in UFC from start what opportunity did he not get?
 
Yea... Aldo has lost a ton of fans throughout this whole ordeal... I was kinda hoping that he'd take the loss as a learning experience and go on to fight some up and comer to earn a title shot. I was looking forward to the chance of seeing Aldo in a non title fight where he didn't have to conserve energy for the championship rounds. Instead he's being a real dick and refusing to acknowledge his loss. Why does he think people want to see that fight?
 
Aldo responded to the classlessness of Conor. I hope Aldo get his redemption.
 
I was glad...because it all led to this...

He lobbied for the LW shot but they shot him down. Also more money.
Nate Diaz showed that the company nitpicked guy can win. He helped restore order to MMA.
