Who Can Beat Frankie After That Performance?

The main thing Aldo needs to work on is his stamina it would seem. Ever since he's gotten to the UFC it's dropped at least a full notch. He looked great from one round to the next against Faber in the WEC. Odd how it's suddenly become a problem. Other than that he's fine, but if he doesn't fix it I'd back Edgar to decision him as well.

 

Hard to say but Frankie would take Aldo down instantly and slam him from time to time. He might even pound him for a stoppage.

 

I never seen anything in Guillard, but I suspected Dana would have given him a shot with an impressive win tonight as ol' DW seems to like Guillard. And obviously he is out of the title shot running now. No longer 'in the mix'.

 

At 145? Who?

 

I doubt it. Frankie might start taking him down late if Aldo starts to gas, but apart from that he's shown very good takedown defense for the most part. Brown wasn't even close to taking him down and he wrestled the hell out of Faber.

 

No one but no way he stays at 145 for long.

 

That a fact?

 

Frankie is a diff athlete than those guys. No LW has taken BJ down in like 7 years and Frankie took him down repeatedly. BJ has at one time before GSP had the greatest TD defense in MMA. But Im exagerrating a bit, but this cant go on the ground for Aldo.

 

Pretty much, hes having problems making weight as it is. Rogan has pointed this out a couple of times but then again Joe might be guessing. But as far as money for Zuffa, theres none for Aldo at 145.

 

I think Ben Henderson has the best shot with his size advantage and balanced skills. He's much faster than Gray and has an unlimited gas tank.

That said, I'd still slightly favor Edgar.

 

He is vulnerable up the middle, uppercuts, flying knees, Thai plum are all very effective against him.

He has a decent chin with incredible recovery, and absolute nails instincts when he gets hurt. He is a little too vulnerable up the middle.. I think he may be on a wave of confidence, he won me over as a fan but actually perhaps Maynard really revealed his weakness.

 

Well if he is having trouble making the weight than that would make sense given the recent stamina issues (and general performance issues by comparison to the past). He might be too small for Lightweight, though.

 

Aoki, if he can get Edgar two the ground early enough in a round, he can finish anyone.

If aldo moves to 155 he stops Maynard and beats Edgar and I'll bet on that! Bendo would probably beat him
