Dana White picks Barao over Aldo for #2 P4P

[JustinvR]

Aldo has more or less reached his ceiling in terms of popularity, Dana is interested in seeing how far Barao can go. Plus, there's no denying Renan still fights with a degree of reckless abandon Aldo hasn't had in a long time.

It basically is just this, but Sherdog will find a way to turn this in a Dana Hate thread.

Ding ding ding.
Jose is a great fighter, but he has only finished 2 of his 6 title fights in the UFC. Although his decision wins have been one sided, we all know Dana's criteria for being labelled a good fighter meaning you have to finish fights. I would put Jose ahead Barao on the P4P list.

He needs to promote Mighty Mouse more.

 

[salmance1]

He's still taking fights though, that's all that matters for Dana.

He's probably trying to get some fights off ,so his contract can eventually expire and he can re-negotiate for mor money

 

[AssWhoopin]

I have him #1 and I am not even a fan of his..... call me crazy but I think he beats Aldo.

 

[Face Punch]

#1 Jon Jones
#2 Cain
#3 Weidman
#4 Pettis
#5 JDS

Da fuqq??

 

[surgeyou1]

I would too...Renan Barao is a MONSTER!

 

[Shael]

Don't agree, I think he favors Barao because he's getting finishes recently and Aldo is not. His opinion though.

 

[SlicerDM]

Aldo is the best fighter MMA the world has ever seen. Aldo is the true 1 P4P.

 

[justblaze717]

#1 Jon Jones
#2 Cain
#3 Weidman
#4 Pettis
#5 JDS

Terrible list

 

[FlyingKimurabar]

I love Barao but he gets way to much credit simply because he's exciting.

Dude's got like 5 top 20 wins. His best wins are freaking Faber & MacDonald.

Dude is behind Jones, Aldo, Weidman and Cain.

Beating Silva 2x or JDS > anything Barao has ever done. His 25 or whatever wins over people no ones ever heard about doesn't get him very far in my book.

 

[FlyingKimurabar]

1 Jones
2 Aldo
3 Weidman
4 Cain
5 Barao.

 

[Silent311]

#1 Jon Jones

#1 Rocky Balboa
#2 Ivan Drago
#3 Apollo Creed
#4 James "Clubber" Lang
#5 Billy 'The Kid' McDonnen

 

[Kingfarthur]

Dana is doing whatever he can to push the champion nobody knows or cares about..

Or talking honestly about a fighter that is absolutely manhandling the competition. I have Barao as #1 or #1 pvp, and based off how he does against Dillashaw he may be #1.

 

[Legendary]

I would too...Renan Barao is a MONSTER!

Calm down Joe Rogan.

 

[HockeyBjj]

Barao still fights to finish every opponenet violently

Aldo has gone the route of GSP and is better than everyone else and is content to just win

I agree with this

#1 Barao
#2 Jones
#3 Aldo
#4 Cain
