TJ vs ALDO

Would it be similar? We jose has a suspect gas tank but based on last nights showing would TJ be able to take him out?

Hmmm Phone Post 3.0

NakedCowboyOnMyRear -

no, it wouldn't be similar.


Thanks captain vague

It would be a great fight. Aldo has better boxing and head movement than Barao and then you have to consider the size advantage. Tough fight for TJ, but I'd love to see it someday. However, let TJ clear out his division first yea?

I'd love to see that fight.

Oh im not suggesting it should be made

Im just curious what people think.

Because I know people diddnt expect what happened last night. Phone Post 3.0

sherlock1988 - To me it was speed and angles that won tj that fight, let's give him Cruz to match him first.
To answer you tho I think Aldo would slow tj down with leg kicks, but who knows. Phone Post 3.0
I was suprised barao diddnt throw more. Thinking about it now in a potential fight with jose, he looks more flat on his feet (possibly due to cut) than he did when he burst onto the scene.

I dunno if it would look similar to last night, which tells me jose should move up and regain that zip he had Phone Post 3.0

I don't think Aldo is much bigger. When they both fought on the same card the word was Barao was actually heavier on fight night... Phone Post 3.0

I think since TJ had some height and reach on Barao, he and Aldo would size up rather nicely and that would be a VERY fun fight to watch. Phone Post 3.0

They are the same height, but TJ has a smaller reach by 3 1/2 inches and was visibly the smaller man in the octagon.

Let's not get carried away. Renan never recovered from the over hand right. Phone Post 3.0

Interesting. He didn't seem to be smaller than Barao to me. It was late. I was stoned. Maybe his range and movement made him appear bigger than Renan to me. Odd. Phone Post 3.0

Not making excuses renan got owned by the better fighter but most guys would have been finished then and there. Props for making it to round 5 on instinct alone. Phone Post 3.0

Aldos leg kicks are too much for pretty much anybody, thats what has made him so dominant imo, and it would be no difference with dillashaw, by the second round his opponents have always lost all spring and power in their punches Phone Post 3.0

I was very surprised that Barao didn't throw more leg kicks to slow TJ down. Aldo would not make the same mistake. Phone Post 3.0

Barao threw leg kicks. A lot of them missed because of TJ's dancing Phone Post 3.0

How about Barao vs Cruz for a shot at TJ ? Phone Post 3.0
I think Cruz matches up with tj better than Barao. I can't wait to see how he comes back, same with Bowles. Phone Post 3.0
Bowles is so far out of the picture it isnt funny.

Waay to the back of the line after Roop got dont with him. Phone Post 3.0
