Topic: UFC 208: Holm vs De Randamie Info and Prediction Thread - page 6. (Read 2793 times)

The UFC should have waited for the legendary Cyborg to fight for the inaugural 145 pound belt and i am really surprised by the lack of support for Cyborg by the UFC new owners and Dana White especially. Cyborg is the pound for pound best female fighter in the world and she should have been the first UFC 145 pound champion,instead they have other plans. Holm lost her last two matches and lets hope the best fighter wins.

Umm maku, you're mistaken about the Holloway fight. Holloway won by TKO in the third round. However, I still think Aldo is the better fighter. He haw 26 wins and only 2 losses for a reason. Holloway won't be ready for Aldo so soon after a tough fight against Pettis. Aldo takes this by TKO/submission.

Just a little update.  It now looks like the main event for 208 is Holly Holm vs De Randamie for the inaugural Women's FW Championship.  The big question:  Where's Cyborg in all this?

Are those results you posted come from the Bizzaro UFC division? You got them in reverse. If you really are not a fan of the UFC please refrain from posting the wrong information and avoid spamming the thread.

This is expected from Aldo. He will be wanting to fight again and be in the lime light. I can see him calling out Conor after that fight assuming he won it. I also speculate that Bisping will also defend his belt against Yoel Romero for the co main event.

Aldo has a slightly edge to this fight against Halloway. Than only thing that bothers me is Aldo's jaw. Its very fragile like a jar. Just one big shot at the jaw and its all over. For the light heavy weight. My bet is to Glover Texeira. For heavyweight, im gonna go for Luis Henrique. And Roan Carneiro for the welterweights.

When I look at the statistics then Aldo is more entitled to win this fight: Aldo 26-2 vs. Holloway 19-4

Also Holloway is fishing from a loser position after his lost his last fight vs Pettis.

Aldo won his last fight vs McGregor - it might be a huge confidence boost for him.

Conclusion: Jose Aldo will be a winner here.
