mcgregor was ready for aldo to turn into a wrestler which is prob more dangerous than edgar or mendes TBH


Eh, idk. Jose has real legit jiu jitsu skills, but I doubt he has the same kind of grappling pressure that Frankie and Chad do. It's a different game when you have one of them on top of you.

But, that being said, Jose has beat some real high level jiu jitsu competitors in straight up jiu jitsu competition, so who knows. I wish we could see more of his ground game in MMA....

its definately different but i think you are in immediate danger of submissions w/ aldo ontop of u grappling

other guys are lnp/gnp(in comparison)

e/ that said i think conor is ready for all of that

Conor came down to San Diego a while back and rolled with some guys from 10th planet Oceanside that I train with and apparently he got tapped several times. That is one reason why I don't think he would thrive in a matchup vs guys like Frankie or Chad (or Jose if he is smart enough to grapple with him).

Am hearing it's almost a lock Aldo is out of the fight. Replacement opponent for McGregor has been floated as an idea.

Yep, Aldo is pretty much officially out.

Time for the UFC to give Conor an easy ass opponent for July 4th -- if they throw Frankie or Chad at him he'd lose, and lose his title shot.

Interim lol.

Either way , Mcgregor is done... Id rather Edgar beat him that way he can't hype up a rematch...

If Aldo fights that post fight drug test will sure be interesting ;)
