      Maybe special for MMA, but not that special for Muay Thai/Thaiboxing. In quite some cases he starts with a leg kick, which is relatively easy to see coming and to block. It just shows that most of his opponents are not good at dealing with leg kicks. And yes, I know how it feels when a good low kick lands on your leg (or when you land a good one).

    This version of Aldo is scary. In recent years however he's relied more so on his boxing over his kicking game.

      Aldo broke his foot against a shin and kept breaking it in training so he realized its too risky to throwing leg kicks with the condition of his foot especially since his legs aren’t long enough for him to effectively land with his shin. So he training in boxing way more to try and make up for it. Although thats essentially handicapped him due to his inexperience boxing and short reach, which makes him an easy target for guys like mcgregor. Aldo charged and overextended with his little arms and got put away by an amazing counter puncher with dynamite in his hands

    I think it has a lot to do with comfort. This Jose Aldo was mad poor, like sleeping at the gym floor since 16 years old. He left his hometown to go to Rio de Janeiro to achieve his dream, how many people would crawl back to momma’s house after the first month sleeping on the floor without barely any food? I saw a clip that he said he fought with headaches because he didn’t had anything to eat. I know I would. He had no other option, only to win. That’s why we see a different Jose Aldo, this and the amount of time he is fighting. His body is old considering how long he is been doing this.

    If he wasn't so emotionally compromised going into the Conor fight, it might've ended differently. You could see in his stance how tense and rigid and stiff he was, and accordingly walked right into the punch. Aldo is one of the few mma fighters I've seen to use legit, clean boxing and head movement, not to mention Conor's issue with leg kicks and how much his style depends on his legs. An emotionally undisturbed Jose vs 145 Conor would've been fun.

Not so sure about Cejudo as imo he could well have been one of the greatest of all time if he chose to continue fighting but WEC Aldo would’ve destroyed Yan. I think Conor and Max just completely ruined his confidence.

      Crazy how you don't know anything about Aldo before the Conor fight

      That's bullshit. Aldo changed his style long before he fought Conor. Less leg kicks, less aggression etc. Even so he has never been hesitant or lackadaisical. He has become more of a counterpuncher, more patient. It's a common thing as fighters age that they become more cagey in their approach and again, this happened well before McGregor. Anyone who's followed the sport closely knows that.

      Lorem Ipsum I had to watch the fight twice. Neither did much but I’d say Izzy wasn’t the aggressor when ever something did happen. They’re both counter punchers so that usually isn’t the most exciting match up.
