Who would win between Jose Aldo and Frankie Edgar?

I gotta fancy Jose, those leg kicks are a game changer, especially with Frankie boxing style. Jose's handspeed is more than comparable to FE's aswell which has been his major advantage over Penn and Grey. Frankies chin is crackable, and Jose has the tools to do it. Eliminate Frankie's movement with leg kicks, and look to slip and counter with combinations, something Penn and Edgar didnt do, and something Jose excels at.

But if there's one thing Ive learned, it's NEVER count out Frankie. For me it's hard to see how he wins this though, speed kills and Jose is just as fast

I think this fight may take place at 155 win or lose for Frankie, the weight cut is taking it's toll on Aldo

 

I just edited my post, I discounted Franke's tenacity. But I dont think that would be enough tbh

 

My only worry for Frankie is that he is quality in all areas but if he gets caught, Aldo knows how to finish a wounded foe. Maynard is good but he gasses and different stylistically to Aldo. If Aldo lands and you survive the first big shot then the follow up can be horrendous!

One of my worries against Hendo is Hendo goes HARD and if he survives it then I think thats great but if Hendo hurts him, he'll keep going HARD!

 

He looked fine last Saturday. I think he's dropped the excess weight that was causing him problems.

 

Hopefully he has sorted out the issues, 155 is stacked enough

 

jose...his stand-up is far superior and he knows how to stay on his feet...but if edgar actually puts effort into his take downs (and what i really mean is AFTER the TD) he could cause jose lots of problems

 

I don't know who to pick on this one. I think I would lean toward Edgar right now because I think he's beaten better competition the past.

 

Aldo, but I would never count out Frankie Edgar against anyone.

 

After seeing Aldo's last fight, and the way he has dismantled anyone with high level wrestling credentials, I think he beats Edgar pretty handily. Probably at either weight. That being said, Edgar is better than Henderson at everything. I don't see Bendo having anything for him.

Jose needs to move up. Not a whole lot of meaningful fights at 145. The talent pool is a lot deeper at 155. Hopefully he doesn't pull an Anderson Silva, and make a career out of fighting cans.

 

Seconded

 

Tough 1 to call, I think Frankie would have to take Aldo to depp waters to get an advantage. Aldo is the first couple rounds isn't going to get taken down but don't forget homnick had him down for long spell when he wore out Aldo late in the fight. Frankie also is prob a better wrestler then mendes anyhow who is mostly a 1 trick pony, Edgar can use his hands to set up a td. Edgar took maynard down which I don't remember anyone else doing not to mention BJ also. Hard to call now, we'll see how FE does against Benson.

 

I think Aldo's leg kicks would take away alot of Frankie's mobility.
Aldo is number 2 P4P on my list.
Aldo beats Edgar, BJ Penn returns for one last fight and gets paired with Aldo.
UFC has a massive PPV.
