UFC 218: Holloway vs. Aldo 2 - Page 2

Eddie Alvarez 2-0, imo.

R1: Eddie showed superior boxing
R2: Eddie's boxing advantage was way more clear, and Justin is gassed but still winging hard shots. Clear round.

YES!!!

Eddie Alvarez, baby~

Puerto Rican power~~~~

Omg that was brutal

Fuck...

I feel bad every time Overeem gets knocked out...

what a beautiful punch, Ngannu looked loose and precise, also he overpowered Overeem easily in the clinch... impressive.

R1: Aldo (close round. Aldo landed the only hard shot)
R2: Aldo (Max didn't do anything during the first 2.5 minutes, then got aggressive but kept trading with Aldo and both landed around the same amount. Max is possibly waiting for Aldo to gas, but Aldo is using limited energy this time)

Yep.

Max waited for Aldo to slow down again, then turned up the heat. Same strategy as last time, but he was more aggressive in R1 this time.

basically a repeat of the 1st fight imo. by the end of the 2nd round I thought aldo would likely get koed in the 3rd again :/ holloway very accurately tags him way too often and he gases too quick imo

Aldo throwed more kicks but still fought retarded, throw 4x that amount of kicks and foce him to adapt, catch them or whatever and for the love of god dont get into extended exchanges

aldo's getting old. he is not the same guy he was 10 years ago. it's not even about his technique anymore. he's just not on the same level with the champ.

I train muay thai and I know that throwing kicks make you very tired and Aldo has problems gassing
this is probably the reason why he doesnt throw kicks anymore, he was probably juicing and was younger during WEC days he could throw as many kicks he wanted to and not gas

Holloway looked good.
Ngannou retired Overeem.

looks like USADA saved a life by flagging JDS before his fight against ngannou :O

lol USADA the golden snitch
Brazil champs RIP

I would get if he was trying to be super efficient in the 1st fight, but on this one it was 100% clear that he was not going to win a long fight.

Also considering the weight class Aldo has probably one of the worst cardios in all of the UFC.
