Dunno if I ever seen a fighter running scared as hard as Aldo is.

A little bitch when things don't go his way. Go play it safe in Bellator.

Scared? He got screwed by management. Even Dana tells it as it is because he's not calling the shots anymore.

No one (except Bobo) is going to cry for Aldo. Act like a bitch, get treated like a bitch. He's really just grasping at straws trying to make a name for himself with the casuals. He wants to start getting paid, and realized having a personality is better than not having one.

After all that has transpired, do you really think Aldo would stoop that low just to make a name for himself? What about the rematch that was promised? What about Conor putting 2 divisions on hold? I get the entertainment factor you're pushing, but this is still a sport. Again, this is the money era & a losing battle for a legend like Aldo.

Hence why Aldo wants to get PAID. He's already the greatest FW of all time, now he just needs to make some fuck you money.

That's exactly my point, genius.

If he wanted to get paid, he should not had pulled out from the Conor fight.

Like said before, Aldo came out and said if he will continue to fight if he gets paid. Hmm. He's made himself very hard to market for years. I have no problem with him never learning English--he simply doesn't do a good job of promoting fights. He never has. He had the allure in WEC because he was killing folk but his UFC stretch has been extremely impressive win wise but he obvi lacked the finishes. To the newer fans--if you started watching four years ago--you wouldn't be impressed with Aldo fighting style of late. I hope he keeps fighting but if he doesn't I wont lose any sleep.

Aldo sucks of doing a promoter's job. That's what I'm getting at in your post.

He sucks at fighting and in the next sentence you post a great match up. Come on man. Make up your mind. We obviously dont have anything to talk about when you try to discredit his wins because you have an axe to grind because he's brazilian.

If a fighter wants to fight, then that is his only job. Fight. Win. BUT if a fighter wants to make money, his job is to do more than fight. This is prize fighting, and you get paid based on how many tickets you can sell and how many people will pay to watch you on TV. This is not the NFL or the NBA where there are guaranteed tv contracts, and therefore guaranteed pay. Performance based pay. It's not a straight sport, and never has been. It's half sport/half entertainment. That's why professional wrestling went from legit sport to sports entertainment. No one wanted to watch Lou Gotch and some ham-n-egger hug each other for 90 minutes.

Make up your mind. We obviously dont have anything to talk about when you try to discredit his wins because you have an axe to grind because he's brazilian. He doesn't suck at fighting itself - he sucks at getting his ass into the ring and doing it which is what I am saying. In the ring he is one of the greatest fighters ever. When have I ever discredited his wins? Never, dude. He DID fight Conor which you conveniently forget and he HAS twice turned down fights with Conor. Offered the Conor fight 3 times, took it once, and got brutally humiliated. There is nothing you or anyone can say to change those facts and nothing can change that he was KOd within 20 seconds. The whole "he deserves" schtick also doesn't work because he WAS offered the rematch but ran from it. Because he is brazilian, you want special treatment for him and I am just spelling out why that's dumb. Aldo is the current interim champ and all of this crying on his part is because he wants the UFC to give a shit about the when and where he gets his 4th offer to fight Conor. Give me a break.

He's not asking for an immediate rematch, that ship has sailed when he declined the rematch when it was offered to him & Conor already fought Nate 2x. He had to earn it against Frankie Edgar. Even if he didn't fought Edgar, there's still valid arguments for a rematch but Aldo proved once again that he is the best in the FW division and yet they won't give him his shot at redemption. Why? Because losing to bigger fighters won't really hurt Conor's stock but a beating from Aldo would.
