I started a similar thread with a less obvious title.
I think a victorious Aldo or Melendez (who, let's be honest, beat Bendo) are better challengers to Pettis than Bendo.
Anyone disagree?
Would love to see Gil vs Pettis
Not Gil
Both great fights
Gil needs to win one more fight.
I would do this with the 155lb division:
Gilbert vs Dos Anjos
TJ Grant vs Diaz
Khabib vs Bendo
As far as Aldo goes... the guy isnt finishing fights at 145lbs... he has no business being at 155.
Awesome fights either or
Gil deserves it and would beat Pettis
So in my opinion aldo should have fought benson in Milwaukee. Since he was scheduled to defend against Pettis, and rewarded with a lw title shot if he won, Pettis got hurt and in my opinion aldo should have gotten the shot. But Pettis took the belt anyway so let's hope aldo or Gil gets the next shot
biva - How about we have someone EARN their 145 title shot?Yeah okay well who's gonna fight the champ while all the contenders are busy earning title shots?!
