    People calling Aldo washed is annoying. Go look at his record. His most recent lost was to Merab. Before that he was on a three win streak. And his other losses were Max, Volk, Yan, Moraes, and Connor. This will be the last fight on his UFC contract. Show the guy some respect. Win or lose his legacy is still intact.

    Based Aldo, still the 5th GOAT. His very arguable win vs Merab (defended every single takedown, landed all the significant strikes and exchanges of the fight compared to Merab winning the total strikes by kneeing the thighs after failing his takedowns) is more impressive every day.

He's also beaten chito who got a shot, rob font, Stephan's and many others. Dudes still young too. But hey hater gonna hate

      20 years in the UFC you'd think fans wouldn't be racist or prejudice to make an excuse that a fighter needs to learn English. Because fans are paying to watch people speak not fight?
