Jose Aldo vs Urijah Faber
Aldo has too much speed and the ground game is excellent. Urijah though has superior wrestling and control when on the ground. I see the fight making it out of the first round. However, I don’t see Urijah winning. He is a great fighter, no question about that. Jose Aldo is up there in pound for pound of all fighters. I just hope it hasn’t gone to his head and he is prepped.
I see Faber getting takedowns. I don’t know how long its going to last, but I don’t see Faber controlling Aldo for 5 rounds.
