Gamburyan stands hard hits. We're having a good match-up.
Aldo has paved his path to the lightweight division.

I like Gaburyan, he’s a brawler. But Also is superior at any area. I wait a submission win.

this will be a great fight..
if gamburyan can keep his arm from falling off..i think there will be a few rounds go by before the fight stops..i give aldo the edge cuz he is a wonder boy!!
a few rounds?!
both fighters are too explosive. k.o. end of first round
cant wait to see this one live
im pretty damn pumped about this one. shaping up to be another stacked card. plus, the wec always brings such bad ass fights
never have any regrets, because at the time, thats all you wanted to do
no one taking manny at +400?
I like the feeling of hunting down what I feed my family. If there’s a beast out there capable of hunting down Brock Lesnar, he would do it and make me the trophy on his den wall. But the laws of nature dictate that I’m going to be the one who goes into the wild and comes home with the evening’s bounty. - The #1 ranked HW in the world...
Aldo Has Shown Us All His Amazing Striking Ability
Manny can hit hard sure but he doesnt have the reach to connect with Aldo without coming inside where Aldo has proved to be lethal. Aldo will most likely finish this inside of 3 rounds. Manny is a tough guy but Aldo is on a whole other level.
Thats my take as well
Manny can win if he lands the, much needed, big shot, but I doubt that will happen

Manny needs to take Aldo down. Do NOT stand up. The real question is : will he be able or willing to walk through some serious strikes to get the clinch?

With the way Brown and Faber got owned on the ground I'm not so sure that's a good idea.

LOL. So its pick your poison, right?

Pretty much, I haven't watch a lot of Faber's old fights but I've never seen a Ju Jitsu guy own him like that.
Manny might come in bigger and stronger but I’m starting to think Aldo is one of the more well rounded guys out there.

I would love to see him come to UFC 155.
I don’t want to see him beating the same guys again and again.
I'm always right, even when I'm wrong.
True, it should happen soon enough

Not only will it provide the ufc lw division some freshh blood and more exciting match ups, it also means that marlon sandro can have a go at the wec fw title

honestly i havnt seen any aldo fights outside of the faber one
has his chin ever been really tested?
"its either going to be genius or its going to f***ing suck. Until I see the first cut I have no idea. But you know what? Neither does anybody else"
Nobody can get close enough to test it..
He’s way too fast he’s got good footwork and very accurate with his strike’s.. This kid is scary good.. And his ground game is suppose to be just as good as his striking.. Training at nova uniao it should be.

its doesnt matter
thats just like asking if anderson silvas chin has ever been tested!
i can’t wait to see aldo compete again. the guy is in a league of his own at that weight class. he’s clearly a special fighter/athlete
I completely agree
And I haven’t seen one bit of clowning in the ring, or disrespect to his opponents either. He seems confident and grounded, a nice combination.
He comes to finish the fight, and showcases spectacular skills. I really hope he can maintain his performance if/when he goes to 155.

i hope it too
Lets just hope he will train mostly at nova uniao in brazil and stays away from black house where he can be influenced by andy silva

WEC was never owned by ufc till ufc bought them, just like ufc bought Pride and killed it!
dont waste ur money on wec ppv’s when theyu use to all be free and were just as good as they are now
Aldo probably via tKO round1
Manny is pretty good but really hasnt shown anything to make anyone think he will last long with Aldo, as always its mma anything can happen.
If you dont like drugs then dont do them.....give them to me!

That’s twice today that I’ve read a rather informative article in which the author misnamed a fighter. Great article, but I can’t get over the ignorance regarding the subject matter. Not bashing you guys, just spend the extra thirty seconds to look up the fighters on Wikipedia before you publish a misinformed article. It would be the same as my writing a Football article about Greg Brady’s quarterback rating.

That came out harsh.
Sorry, Jesse, I’m actually a fan of your outside-the-box approach sometimes to MMA journalism. Was just pointing out the obvious.

I like to point this out as well.
I’ve been giving them $#!& since there was no SBNation association and there was no registration. Especially now that they are on SBNation they need to act more like a professional MMA blog and less like a teenagers Twitter. Just sayin. Maybe a little harsh RU but the truth hurts. Mania is awesome and it’s the only place I visit anymore for MMA news. I used to be all over the place and this is where I settled so it’s not like I’m just a hater.
Do not. I repeat, do not, go to mma-core.com. I made the mistake of watching a couple UFC 108 bouts on there and I am still trying to get all the viruses of my computer. Ridiculous! You've been warned.

The only way Aldo loses this
is if he pulls a Mike Tyson and just has let the instant rise go to his head and is taking the Anvil lightly, not training, partying, etc.
Aldo wins this via vintage Wanderlei onslought early in round 1. I’m pulling for Miguel too as I’ve enjoyed watching him over the years. Hopefully he can get back on track.
