@MikeLovesTacosXD That's ****** up. Holly Holm deserves way more respect than that. I can't wait to watch all of Conor's fanboys leave Vegas with their tails between their legs once Aldo retains his belt.

Round 1
To me, this is the most even fight in UFC history. It can really go either way, because both of these guys are tailor-made to beat the other up.
If Aldo's smart, he's gonna use this fight as a way to showcase his elite wrestling, a la Chuck Liddell/Wanderlei Silva, because that is the only notable advantage that one fighter has over the other in this fight.
But if that doesn't happen (which is probable), **** if I know who wins. Personally, I think this is the most compelling fight ever put together since I've been watching MMA.

I feel like the co-main is a coin flip also. Super pumped for this card tonight. More so than I have been for a UFC card in a long long time.

I'm confident Weidman will win but it's hard to explain why. Don't have a clue how McGregor-Aldo will go however.

Yeah, Weidman is a beast, but I'm not sure if he's better in every facet than Rockhold. Rockhold is freakishly strong. Finishing one armed submissions like it's nothing, multiple times. He also has much better kicks and a wider range of striking techniques. I'm extremely interested to see how this fight goes. Will Rockhold be able to keep The Chris from taking him down. Will he overpower him? Will he out grapple him? Will the wrestling cancel out? If so, who gets the better on the feet. I think Jacare, Weidman, and Rockhold all have the skills to beat each other on any given day. I think those three guys are the elite of the elite at middleweight right now with Yoel Romero being just one very very small step below them. I think Jacare will handle Romero with ease. I'm almost 100% certain of it. The main and co-main though, I honestly think flipping a coin might be the best method to pick.

There are a million x-factors in this fight I don't see how anyone can be confident about their pick here. For me what it comes down to is Aldo has never given me a reason to pick against him. Worth noting that if he wins, this could be argued as the greatest title reigns of all time.

Oh god, I can't pick. I can't pick! But I have to, so I'll take McGregor on the chance that maybe Aldo is slowing down as an athlete even though he's only 29, and has had several injuries.
