U can test for like plastics in their blood. Something along those lines. I forget the exact testing method.

They can tell you've used an iv, that's why they're banning it. It's not to stop people from cutting weight, if they cared about weight cutting they'd just do same-day weigh-ins... It's to stop people from being able to use blood transfusions and saline to mask ped use.

As for his opinion of the new Reebok uniforms, Aldo's answer was short and sweet.

"It sucks," said Aldo, later adding they look like the Power Rangers, a popular children's TV show in the 1990s.


Aldo took that line from me after reading my comment on jsp.

I can see a Reebok manager in panic now, calling Dana White and crying about it on the phone xD

Ah yes the typical "leg kick" response, ignoring that Aldo will have to completely change his gameplan from any other fight he's fought to successfully destroy the southpaw's lead leg whom also happens to be the most illusive and best striker Aldo has ever seen. Aldo has never fought a striker remotely comparable to Conor. Conor is the one guy in that division who has more power than him, is faster than him, more accurate than him, and has a reach advantage on him.

Conor will maul Aldo. I don't see this fight even being close. Still think the biggest threat to him in that division is a prepared Mendes.


I wouldn't say faster, aldos kicks and hands are faster, conors movement is faster. Aldo is going to tear that lead leg up because conor always leaves it out. His stance is horrible for someone like aldo who's the leg kick king. And it won't take many to slow conor down a bunch, so conor better hope to god he knocks him out before aldo lands those few.

Now I am not saying conor can't knock aldo out, he sure can. But if this fight goes the distance it's going to aldo who is the ALL around better mixed martial artist. And if aldo lands some of his classic legs kicks nice and early the fight is going to be totally different than anyone things, the leg kicks will do more long run damage than conors body spinning back kicks... Total lack of movement makes you take more overall punishment than just having less in the gas tank.

Conor has faster hands, movement, better striking, and more power. Aldo will struggle with the leg kicks on Conor's lead leg since he won't be able to load up power on them unless he switches stance due to Conor being a southpaw. I'd imagine Conor will punish him if he continues to go for the leg kick too.

After watching what Mendes did to aldo, I don't see Aldo wanting to stand with Conor past the first round.

Those spinning back kicks to the body will do more damage then aldos leg kicks. The speed and power he generates on them will do much more damage as they are targeting a more vital part of the body then the leg kicks. Aldo will use his leg kicks to set up his hands or finish combos with leg kicks. They will do damage and slow him down, but if Aldo lands X leg kicks and Mcgregor lands x Spinning back kicks to the body... Mcgregors kicks are sure to do more damage. This is common sense lol

This, and conor has broken 2 people's feet by checking kicks

Obviously he'll train to check kicks more in his camp even lol
