As Aldo himself admitted, 13 seconds isn't a fight. It was last July when Conor last had something resembling a contest and even then it was less than 10 minutes. Nate had a proper battle just over 2 months ago and the benefits were evident. There is simply no substitute for 'match fitness'
This combined with Conor having to gorge on food to make weight on 10 days notice made it too steep a climb. He needed Aldo to give him a war to stand any chance of jumping 2 classes in fighting shape. His record dispatching of Jose ultimately cost him.
