You really expect the UFC to make fights that make sense?

I love how every time Aldo fights ppl think that low kicks are a magic option that he wins or loses whether he uses them or not.
you can spam low kicks on Urijah Faber, you can't spam them on Holloway, McGregor, Guys with length and top notch counter-punching.

I simply don't trust in Aldo's chin anymore.

Aldo has 5 rounds in him when he dictates the range and pace so that he can spurt in the last 1-1:30 mins of the rounds and take them, he can't do that against Holloway, so as soon as the second round ended without him finishing the fight, he was losing, whether it came in rounds 3, 4 or 5, he was going to lose, imo.
I don't like his chances in the rematch either. Again, he can potentially finish the fight in the first round or two (though Holloway has a great chin so I'm not betting on it), but as soon as the fight passes the 2.5 rounds mark I think Also starts getting dominated and wears down again. Especially since we all know how Aldo hates shorter camps and fights outside Brazil.
I've got Holloway TKO4, but another 3rd round TKO wouldn't surprise me. Then again, Aldo is still an all-time great so he could rise above how bad this stylistic matchup is for him. Question is if he believes he needs to dig deep into his greatness or is selling himself what you wrote about him winning the fight and only getting caught by one punch. If he believes the same thing you do, he's don't think he's got a chance if they make it to round 3.
Just my take of course, I've been wrong many times before ;)
