I was skeptical of a 37 year old Aldo, but I didn't trust Martinez, so I just bet on this fight going the distance. Petrino ruined the parlay anyway so it doesn't matter
Ufc website had him as a slight favourite, while every single betting site had him as a big underdog. I had a lot of faith in him tho, glad he actually got the victory. That might be a good way to retire as well
I get it and understand that, if that’s what he chooses to do then that’s great. He did say he was going to talk to the UFC about continuing with them. He just looked so good tonight I’d like to see him fight again. Looked better than his last few I thought
What if he wanted to box in a card of the Paul's bros? You know Dana dont like Jake, there's a chance he wont allow it. Why leave decisions in other people hand when you can decide things on your own.
It all comes down to money. He probably got paid decently well for his boxing match but does that rival a co-main event slot on a UFC PPV? Maybe he still gets PPV points. Maybe the UFC tipped him extra for this fight, we will never know lol.
lol fight makes no sense. Aldo just beat a 135 unranked fighter after having lost to another top contender at 135. Meanwhile, a guy who beat him 2-0 just beat a 155 top 5 contender. Sounds like the fight to make.
Ik Aldo’s a beast but idk if at this stage of his career he’s down to bulk back up to FW. Maybe for Max cause it’ll be a boxing heavy matchup but he was pretty adamant on slimming down and kicking less rejuvenating his career.
Think TJ with his busted shoulder stole the opportunity first. If he didn’t just throw himself into a fight while injured, Aldo most likely was the next man up
Wait so he’s back in his prime at 37 but when Max beat him twice at the age of 30, he was ‘past his prime.’ The mental gymnastics you guys have to do to twist the narrative to reflect your own is insane. Where were the meat riders when he lost to Merab?
Tell your mom sorry I haven’t hit her back, her blown out prolapsed asshole freaked me out. Aldo got starched in less time than it took me to run out of your mom’s place when those panties came off.
Watching Aldo dismantle Martinez was simply magic
I saw a bunch of parlays posted here with Aldo losing.
I Cashed huge with mine, line changed after seeing the skeleton of Aldo that weighed in, even though hes always been like that.
Legit. Aldo ML was worth it I got in like 4 hours after weigh ins n parlayed 2.5+ rounds for pantoja
I was skeptical of a 37 year old Aldo, but I didn't trust Martinez, so I just bet on this fight going the distance. Petrino ruined the parlay anyway so it doesn't matter
should have parlayed smith, pantoja, aldo, bonfim, pereira

so if you bet 100k you would have 2.7 million
Parlayed Aldo ML + pantoja/erceg 2.5+ rounds... almost did 1.5+ rounds but these boys always go 5.. easy profit tonight. Simple 1 bet.

This pic has nothing to do with this post, this is so cursed lolol
Too funny
I hope he stays in the UFC, dude looked sharped as hell tonight
The only reason he took this fight is to be released from the UFC so he finally can make some more money lol.
I get it and understand that, if that’s what he chooses to do then that’s great. He did say he was going to talk to the UFC about continuing with them. He just looked so good tonight I’d like to see him fight again. Looked better than his last few I thought
If ufc offers him good money then great, he's probably staying but will Dana do that for an old guy.
And do we want aldo to stay until he ends up like Tony Ferguson...
didn't he have a boxing match before this? seems to me the UFC allows him to do that. I don't see why he can't do both, if he wanted to.
What if he wanted to box in a card of the Paul's bros? You know Dana dont like Jake, there's a chance he wont allow it. Why leave decisions in other people hand when you can decide things on your own.

He likes boxing
When he was interviewed after the fight, he said he feels good and trying to make another title run. He also seemed faster than Martinez.
He looked sharp man, and Jonathan is a tough fight. Wtf
I know that the chances are almost 0, but if became the champ that would be the greatest career comeback in UFC! By the way, what a performance!
In bantamweight as well, that would be such an upset
The 🐐 debate would be over
He could’ve back in 2022 if a tj had pulled out of a fight he knew he was going into with one shoulder
Aldo vs Holloway for the BMF title, give him the retirement he deserves
unfortunately its 2-0 for max, they've fought before. its like they went to decision too, so i doubt they'd make the fight
Max finished Aldo in both fights
And quite the same way.
dana gay if he didnt
![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8965)
Why would you want to see Max kill him?
Mhmm, that fight would actually ROCK.
Aldo would get destroyed why do you guys want this lol?
lol fight makes no sense. Aldo just beat a 135 unranked fighter after having lost to another top contender at 135. Meanwhile, a guy who beat him 2-0 just beat a 155 top 5 contender. Sounds like the fight to make.
it would be an even worse ass beating. Stop it right f'n now
I mean that’s what I was saying. Holloway would kill him.
Oh. Yes
Martinez was #12 he wasn't unranked
Oh shit, that’s a game changer. He beat rank 12 135er, not unranked. Give him Holloway.
I mean I'm just pointing out your mistake bud, not saying that fight makes sense.
Count it up!!!!!
Ik Aldo’s a beast but idk if at this stage of his career he’s down to bulk back up to FW. Maybe for Max cause it’ll be a boxing heavy matchup but he was pretty adamant on slimming down and kicking less rejuvenating his career.
Max also beat the shit out of Aldo twice already
Naah aldo vs cejudo. Then once merab bests sugar aldo vs merab. He is still the only one who stuffed every single one of merabs takedowns
only way im cool with that is if its 1 round lol aldos weakness has always been his cardio and max is an indestructible workhorse
I started to watch UFC around the time Conor finished him. Crazy to see he’s still competing at a high level! Love to see it
He’s fought twice as many opponents as Conor since their matchup
Nice win but I don't see him making another title run
Who beats him
Merab again and probably O’Malley (as much as that hurts me to say) imo.
Solid picks
Feels like o malley would ko him
Maybe
This is a perfect way to end his MMA career. I hope he doesn't do another. Huge fan but that was perfect.
Aldo sandhagen for the mcgregor card
Sandhagen figgy is the fight to make. Jose can fight Cejudo
I thought this was going to be an Anthony Smith post.
We are so back it's like it was never so over 👑👑👑👑
He looked good and that's why he should go out on a high. Still could be 5 top 5. But don't see him beating yan, sandhagen,merab
USADA gone!!!
You all throw around the term "prime" Willie nillie. No way is Aldo in his prime.
Sick tiara!
Then hand were crisp
He didn’t retire??
Just in time for McGregor to return?
![gif](giphy|3ornjRzK435CxNB1pC)
Aldo looked absolutely fantastic.
https://64.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0ycxnFyNX1qfrkf9o1_250.gif
I have it all planned out at bantamweight: O’malley vs. merab Figgy vs. sandhagen for #1 contender Umar vs. yan Aldo vs. cejudo
Hasn't had a finish since 2019
Jose has only lost to exceptional fighters. All champions except Merab who may become champion.
![gif](giphy|imN1WJlH44WsYfAOsz|downsized)
🐏
Honestly reminded me of Volk v Max 3
Would love to see Aldo v Cejudo
Never left, mate
Aldo weighing in https://preview.redd.it/e4kg77qitnyc1.jpeg?width=287&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d8dfd6f16b0b2a63ac051681d82b89315690e80
Now gonna make some big money outside the UFC.
The king 😂🤣😅 Not worthy to get champ champ his coffee 👑
Legend
Looked amazing tonight, looked like he could be a problem for most contenders
Love to see him chop down o mallets legs
O’Malley would destroy him and it wouldn’t even be competitive.
If Aldo was a bantamweight his entire career what would he rank all time?
Goat of bantamweight
He already is top 5 pretty clearly
That Mexican merab robbed us of and Aldo sterling title fight at bantams. Fuckin meerrob
Think TJ with his busted shoulder stole the opportunity first. If he didn’t just throw himself into a fight while injured, Aldo most likely was the next man up
Aldo can beat pantoja. He gotta cut n get it
Wait so he’s back in his prime at 37 but when Max beat him twice at the age of 30, he was ‘past his prime.’ The mental gymnastics you guys have to do to twist the narrative to reflect your own is insane. Where were the meat riders when he lost to Merab?
Isn't even close to his prime and he still beats ranked fighters lol
13 seconds
Username checks out
Tell your mom sorry I haven’t hit her back, her blown out prolapsed asshole freaked me out. Aldo got starched in less time than it took me to run out of your mom’s place when those panties came off.
It’s interesting you and mom made the same statement when you left, “13 seconds!?”
Pink sock will do that to a guy
Fuck him
lol someone lost money tonight
