So, we know Aldo isold and far from his prime times. But he has always faced far better competition than Vera. And eventhough he lost to Moraes (i had Aldo on my cards) and Yan (made it very competitive for the first half, he threw heavy leg kicks), he looked well.

On the other hand, Vera comes with a very impressive run (also had him on the cards against Yadong), making overrated Sean O'Malley wuit their fight.

This is the classic "old legend" Vs "new breed" type of fight. So, Aldo still has it? Vera said he would end the former champ (although he's not a knock out artist). I little concerned with Vera as a slow starter.

So, who gets this???
 
Don't really know who to pick in this one. I usually bet against past prime fighters but Aldo isn't completely shot yet and I am not sold on Vera yet. I am leaning towards Aldo winning this but won't bet on it.
 
Aldo. He was, at the very least, tied with Yan going in to the fifth despite being a 2-3 yrs out of his prime. Younger Aldo beats Yan fairly easily (UD).

I'm glad Vera ended the hype of that clown o'malley but he's not on Aldo's level IMO. Unless that last fight and round took what Jose had left I don't see Vera winning.
 
Such a great card coming up and nothing - no promos or anything.

But choose to promo conor (yeah dustin is in it as well but how much air time did he get in that promo - not much).
 
Aldo has too much mileage on him imo. Vera should take this.
 
I'll be surprised if Aldo end up losing this one. Marlon Vera is a bum, never beat someone worth a damn.

I thought he already fought Marlon
 
Love Aldo. He took Yan to the 5th at two a piece. I don’t like 135 for him tho. He struggled cutting to 145 and it showed in the championship rounds. He had nothing left in the 5th against Yan. He still looks good but should stick to fun fights and co mains. 5 rounders are not for him anymore.

He beats Vera.
 
Fighters seemingly age overnight and Aldo could degrade even further from his prime than his last fight out, in which he was competitive with a killer, but I expect him to win this fight if he isn't hurt early or gasses even quicker than normal.

Aldo is a warrior. I like Chito. I just think unless he hits Aldo on the button, he's going to get beat on until he gets finished or Aldo gets clipped or gasses.
 
I still don't know how Aldo ate that uppercut from Stephens and survived.
Despite what people say, Aldo is super durable. He ate huge shots from Yan as well. His problem isn't his chin, it's his cardio. He gasses after 3 then he's a sitting duck basically.
 
In a 3 rounder, I got Aldo. He's a much better fighter. If he keeps leg kicking as well, Aldo by UD.
 
I think Aldo should find success early, I just hope he doesn't gas mid fight or get tagged and leave openings and opportunities that Chito can capitalize. I think Aldo should still win by decision but Chito will make it a competitive fight.
 
Been leaning towards Aldo a lot in this fight. Quite a bit of factors favor him here,
Does better in three rounders, has a decent size advantage, and Chito isn’t the hardest hitter and I don’t see him putting Aldo out easily either. I got Aldo via UD
 
Aldos been gradually going downhill, his time is done. Cheeto will win a decision

probably cause it's not a ppv.
