his strikes were much more effective ,harder and landed much more flush.Plus look at Edgers face.
It's all about RD 3 WW! This ain't PRIDe where there would have been no question IMO at all that Aldo won.
Very close fight man.
absolutely.
it's comical all the retards that post "frankie was robbed".. get a life.
flame away but i had it 4-1.Aldo landed all the damaging strikes.Defended takedowns and landed much flusher strikesAnd the judges agreed
Aldo won, but it was very close.
very close fight but aldo def won 48 - 47
If someone thinks Edgar won they should start judging MMA professionally under Cecil and Adelaide
5th i had for Aldo it wasclose but he landed damaging shots at the end that won the round IMO.Also Frankie landed much more glancing blows.When Aldo connected it was flush
People always point to the punch stats........but Frankie's punches were ineffective where as Aldo's were damaging...I mean the fight was a no brainer
all that said i have lots of respect for Edger who is a warrior
Absolutely
big fan of both fighters
Edgers losses have come to some of the very best in the sport.Aldo is one of the best pound for pound fighters Ive ever seen
I think people are way overreacting to Rogan's commentary. Everyone where I was watching had Aldo winning but we also gave Frankie the last 2 rounds and while I gave Aldo the 3rd...we have seen a lot of rounds like that go either way with the unpredictability of MMA judging so there was a bit of uncertainty while waiting for the judges decision despite my belief that Aldo had done enough for the win. I'm pretty sure that was all Rogan was saying as well. ?
Aldo undoubtedly won.
I came away with two things from that fight:
1) Aldo is insanely good (used to think he'd be exposed by someone like Edgar).
2) Edgar is insanely tough (especially to finish).
And yes, I should've known those things already but last night really cemented it for me.
If you think Frankie won you're reaching, I had money on Frankie and knew also won 3 or 4 rounds on damage alone.

ALDO, not "also"
