It’s hard for Chad Mendes not to pedal a little bit faster, lift weights a little longer, and push for that takedown a little harder.
Mendes is planning to put Jose Aldo on his back, after all, and after watching Saturday’s UFC 136, he’s more convinced he can do so.
“He’s going to be uncomfortable being on his back,” Mendes today told MMAjunkie.com. “That’s my strength, and that’s where I want to put him.”
