Why don't we see anymore the likes of past champs such as BJ, Randy, Hendo (outside the UFC) or even Anderson (fighting @ LHW, not for the belt but still makes a point)
I've read many threads on Aldo where ppl have stated & honestly believe that Aldo thrashes everyone @ LW except for one or two top guys in that div, so why the hell not?
Has Aldo publicly stated that he does not wish to be as awesome as BJ, Randy, etc & hold 2 belts @ the same time?
He's fought @ LW in the past, some may argue he's very big for FW & LW is his natural weight, as well as it could very well benefit his cardio as he tends to lose steam in the championship rounds
It's obvious he has a very good chance @ gaining the LW strap (being so dominant one weight class down) yet he won't & why? too much pressure, responsibility, competition, what is it?
Anyone could argue against this proposition by mentioning Jon Jones, however there's a difference between 145lb-155lb (10 pounds) & 205lb-265lb (60 pounds)
IMO gone are the days of old school fighters with that 'anytime, anywhere, any weight' mentality
