Dude, chill.
I'm not saying he can't beat him, but 10 out of 10 times? The guy's overshot the thin line between confident and dumb by a million miles.

The only reason I can think of that isn't just stupidity is if he's trying to piss Aldo off so that Aldo asks for the fight. Aldo doesn't strike me as the in-confident baby that would fall for such a childish trick.

He's still got another fight in his future before he gets the title shot (maybe Guida or Lamas?) so he'd better concentrate on that instead of self promoting his next title shot.

I think Cub is legit, and i think he could beat Aldo
10/10 times? obviously not
9/10 times, doubtful.
but all he needs is 1/10 times, and i think he has those odds with him.

^^^Right you are sir
although double flying knees are typically somewhat of an overkill! Im sure just a knee to the face is enough, its just insult to injury when the other knee hits you for the hell of it lol

Is the comment accurate? Of course not, Aldo would be the favorite for sure in this fight. Does it sound particularly intelligent? Not if you think about it. But I personally don't care. I love seeing guys who want that title shot and try their hardest to get that fight (and you can make a fair statement that Swanson's one fight away from getting it).
Since Aldo is injured yet again, I say while he recovers, match Swanson up with either Frankie Edgar or Korean Zombie, winner gets the next title shot! (KZ being more likely since it would be tough for the UFC to pass up on Aldo/Edgar even though I'd like to see Frankie win at least 1 fight at Featherweight before he gets that title shot).
Maybe not the brightest comment ever, but I love hearing it!
