World Extreme Cagefighting featherweight champion Jose Aldo is steadily clearing out the 145-pound weight class in North America. Most MMA observers consider Aldo the best featherweight in the world and the last three men he’s beaten — Manny Gamburyan, Urijah Faber and Mike Brown — to be the next best.
