    Max Holloway is the Hawaiin lad?...Casual here following Aldo after Conor beat him...Know Aldo is a legend an all that but I watched a show about Holloway in his home in Hawaii and they showed all his fights(didnt he fight McG(just googled he did)...google again(Mcg got injured but meh fcuk it Holloway took him all the way surely his a decent bet at 6/5...I really liked his interviews on that show and I think Aldo was the best but is going down..lads like Max are going up...I hope Holloway wins..I threw a 10er on at 6/5 in a 2 horse race.

    The thing is, Aldo has fought since the Conor fight. He fought Frankie Edgar and looked immense. He doesn't look like he's declining.

    Awh yeh:o:o:o
    I remember that now!
    My declining comment was not so much based on performance(simply because I dont know enough) but on his age and time at the top...10 years odd he was champ?he cant keep it up forever so was guessing he wont get any better did Frankie beat Holloway?I genuinely dont know.
    Think Holloway be a tougher test than Edgar(i heard a bit about him decent but just never as good as Aldo)

    Obviously I could be talking through my arse:pac:

    Max has far superior cardio and output and will keep a pace Jose Aldo can't live with over 25 minutes.

    I don't see it going the full 5 rounds though, Holloway will get him out of there within 4.

    Holloway to win by uppercuts or head kick. Aldo will underestimate his height and leave himself in the pocket too long.

    Vitor is just done. It's a shame that these guys don't have the money to just retire.

    2:1 hometown decision for Vitor I'd say. What a pile of pooh though.

    I am hoping Max wins but I think Aldo will take it. Especially at home in Brazil. Max looked very nervous against Conor and I am worried he will be the same against Aldo.I hope not but I think Aldo will have too much for him

    You didn't miss anything.

    The next fight should be good. The Polish girl Karolina has a granite chin. I've probably jinxed her now but expect her to walk through every punch Claudia throws and still be in her face winging jabs in the 5th.

    And she will look as cool as a cucumber while she does it. The girl looks like she is waiting for a bus while waiting for the fight to start. P4P most relaxed fighter ever. It's hilarious.:P

    Seems a long time ago. Two years ago, age 23, lost by decision, has won 10 fights on the bounce since.

    I'm all over evil moustache Aldo here.

    He's quicker, going to be firing those leg kicks to slow Holloway down and take away the pop from Holloway. Holloway doesn't have flash KO power and I'm hoping Aldo is smart and mixes in some TDs.

    Aldo by UD.

    Max is very tentative in that round. I was worried he would be nervous.

    Hopefully he will settle down now

    Interesting finish, i think Jose shaded it, landed the better strikes. Very exciting, nerve wracking stuff.
