Its on, assuming Aldo make it to the cage. 3 belts on the line, FW Belt, Interim FW Belt and FW Intercontinental Belt.
I got Holloway
Max is new era and next gen with a superior frame and overall current athleticism, but Jose is capable of picking him apart probably with really crisp, almost perfect standard muay thai.
One of the best match-ups on paper in the last 5 years.
So is Aldo the champion ?
If Aldo wins, it's time to go to lightweight. No reason to stay at fw.
slicedcity -So is Aldo the champion ?
Of course not. That was just promotional propaganda..
Conor is the Champion @ 145 lbs. still.
Max is the interim Champion and he is looking to cement his spot as #1 contender for McGregor here.
Without an impressive win over Aldo then it's difficult to see Max as the Champion, when McGregor already beat him. But that was a younger and much less mature physically and technically Holloway that Conor fought the first time.
Still dont see Halloway beating Aldo. Aldo is one strong fuck at 145 and Halloway doesnt have power or heavy kicks like Aldo
big daddy yum yums - Aldo brings blessed back down to earth... like Max but Aldo puts the win streak to an end by any way he chooses... most likely decision
Why would he choose to win by decision?

How is Aldo not champ but Holloway is, for your reasoning behind Aldo not being champ neither should Holloway.
PS. Conor is not coming back to 145, let that shit go.
Acidic -This Aldo has been KTFO.Still dont see Halloway beating Aldo. Aldo is one strong fuck at 145 and Halloway doesnt have power or heavy kicks like Aldo
Different guy fighting Halloway this time.

10 straight wins for Max Holloway currently.
WattMell -Brabatross -Because it's Aldo.. remember his fight with Lamas? If he gets a couple rounds up on his opponent, he's completely content with chilling out for the rest of the fight when it looks like he's fully capable of finishing.. Dana said the same thing, it's weird.big daddy yum yums - Aldo brings blessed back down to earth... like Max but Aldo puts the win streak to an end by any way he chooses... most likely decisionWhy would he choose to win by decision?
It's the reason why I'm not a fan of Aldo. He does barely enough to win rounds and just coasts.
Pettis is just a dangerous as Aldo, striking and onthe ground... plus pettis has some takedown ability. If Holloway can take Pettis then I am sure he has a chance against Aldo.
my only hope, is that no one gets "injured" before fight day
I definitely don't think Aldo is going to be able to coast against Holloway. Holloway is going to bring the fight to Aldo and make him fight.
big daddy yum yums -So he just chooses to take more damage and be less exciting?Brabatross -I think Jose even though can finish anyone in the division tends to coast once he knows the fight is hisbig daddy yum yums - Aldo brings blessed back down to earth... like Max but Aldo puts the win streak to an end by any way he chooses... most likely decisionWhy would he choose to win by decision?
WAR JOSE ALDO, JR!
Mind says aldo but heart says Holloway
great fight either way
Aldo gets old this fight
Aldo hasn't been exciting in years

10 straight wins for Max Holloway currently.
Aldo was 10 years straight without defeat and the only featherweight champ the promotion had ever seen.
Aldo's win over Frankie counts more as he was higher ranked and more accomplished than anyone on Holloways record and was made before Holloway fought Pettis.
