Just re-watched Aldo-Mendes 2

Do you actually believe that it will be an easy task to put an 28 years old Aldo to sleep or that the path to do it is simple as putting Siver or any other top 10/15 out ?

Also Mendes was able to land because he feint pretty good alot of fake tds. Aldo will be fluid with his strike and the one that will be worried about being td, will be Conor.

Where in his post did you read the word easy?
 
I just saw a clip on Fightland's website where Connor ended a fight by checking a right roundhouse kick.

If Aldo is thinking fastball - he might want to watch The Chris/Spider 2...
 
I think Aldo going to go for takedowns in this fight and finish conor with GNP.
 
Mendes has better striking than McGregor tbh.
 
When he had to fight on 1 foot or when he was sick the week of the fight?

Yeah. And neither fight was even close...they rarely are with Aldo. People citing these fights to discredit the champ are a joke. They hardly could have been more one sided. What, he lost one of 9 rounds in those two fights?
 
And I gotta tell you guys, Mendes was hitting him with some good shots on the feet and his striking is nowhere near as polished as MCGOAT's.

While there's some truth here, you're neglecting to mention Mendes' wrestling as a factor. The threat of the takedown generally helps great wrestlers succeed in the standup portion of fights where they otherwise might not have. Conor won't really have that going for him against Aldo.
 
McGoat has almost 10 more inches of reach versus Mendes.
 
Mcgregor will light him up all night and get a late tko.
 
Threat of the Takedown improves stand up tremendously. And Mendez is a very good, explosive, accurate striker without it. Conor will not have any threat of the takedown, and so Jose will be free to capitalize on openings.
 
Leg kick Aldo will be back now that he has dispatched of all the wrestlers, I cant wait!!!

If I were Aldo I wouldn't be so sure Connor isn't taking me down. Connor took down Max Holloway easily every single time with a torn ACL. Dennies Burmdez wasn't even able to do that to Max.

I'm not saying Connor has wrestling as good as Mendes but Jose could get caught off guard if he thinks he has nothing to worry about.
 
I gotta admit, Connor brings the exact same fear of the TD as Mendes brings. Aldo will fight exactly the same as he did against Mendes who is the best wrestler at FW.

That's a crazy statement. Like saying Michael Bisping brings the same TD threat as Chael Sonnen. One is a good defensive wrestler/competent offensive one, and the other is a proven TD specialist. Come on man.
 
AHAHAHAHAHA

Did you just say Aldo needs to improve his striking defence? Do you even fucking watch MMA.

Aldo listed Striking Defence is 72%
McGregor's is 69%
Mendes is 70%

We all saw what happen to Mendes in round 1.

It's a fight, people get hit.


oh yah I forgot to add


THREAT OF THE TAKEDOWN.
