What's worse for Brazil?

Brazil/Germany 14 :hula: Aldo/Holloway

You might need to go back and watch that Brazil/Germany match again...

Hometown boy losing is one thing, but that WC semi was a historic, national scale humiliation the likes of which I've never seen. No comparison whatsoever.

fukk Aldo.

Canceled many a fights; gets KO'd in 13 seconds-->gets offered a rematch and declines; now he loses and can't even give a post-fight interview
Aldo is a great fighter but he got extremely complacent thinking that shyt was sweet in his weight class and Conor exposed that. If it wasn't for Mcgregor, he would have still been getting these once a year 5 round decisions and probably retired as the featherweight GOAT. Him getting stretched in 13 seconds was equivalent to letting off a stream of blood in a shark pool. He completely lost his mystique and no longer has that mental edge over his opponents. It's kind of like what happened to Anderson Silva after Weidman.

Know he got caught, but something STILL too fishy about the Aldo/Mcgregor mauling when you add in the fact that Jose blatantly said there would NEVER be a rematch & the whole belt/weight class fiasco that followed.......before the McRetards swarm on me, this isn't a knock on Connor, just a small theory........

Undefeated champion for how many years (?), regarded as 1 of the best p4p gets slumped (it happens) then not only doesn't get a rematch but doesn't even push for 1.............?????????

A fighter could be unconscious and he still would dispute the stoppage. So it didn't surprise me that Aldo was pissed at the ref for stopping the fight.

man...i can't give max enough props. even as a huge aldo stan, i was really on the fence for this one. cuz aldo is aldo. but i'm a big holloway fan too, this dude had mad potential from time. you could see it even when he ran into conor and lost. in a decision.

and since then, he has fukking straight beasted, not only winning every fight...but improving every fight, growing every fight, getting better every fight, all the while fighting better competition every fight.

one thing that got me during that fight is, why jose wasn't throwing any kicks? i mean, max isn't some great wrestler...and jose is an absolute monster at tdd. so why just keep it to the hands? i found that strange. especially since max is vulnerable to leg kicks, which is an aldo speciality.

whatever though. :yeshrug:

Aldo is a legend, the greatest FW and a top 6 fighter all time. :camby:

bu bu he's the greatest of all time :heh:

He is a legend in MMA (though top 10 of ALL time do not get stretched in less than a minute). However, ALL I posted were facts
