No shit but if you didn't know, Aldo was added as the #1 P4P AFTER Jones was suspended for the running over pregnant woman while high on weed and bailing controversy. But we all know Jones has more credibility as 1 #P4P than Aldo. Just super saiyan.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Aldo
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jones

Compare the two and look at what fights they've both been in. And how unlike Aldo, Jones only defeat was by a faulty DQ (he had pretty much the match won). Jones opponents are some of the all time greats and legitimate threats. Aldo has had a few legit threats but a lot of just stat padded victories by beating cans.

In addition to being changed to the #1 P4P after the Jones controversy, he was also added to gather more hype for the McGregor fight. Besides Anthony Johnson, Jon Jones cleaned the division that had the most dominant contenders around.

Also a pro with Jones is that you know his fights will never be scripted/staged/opponents take dives because he's so damn good at using dirty fighting to his advantage that he'll destroy his opponents regardless.

I guess the #1 p4p fighter doesn't know as much about feinting as you, then.

Most people won't care if the right is a feint or not at that distance, they just counter on instinct because they know they will beat you to the punch.

That makes no sense. Anyone can see from the gif that if Aldo's punch had been real, it would have connected, and it would have connected before Conor's hook. Conor is good, but he can't beat physics yet.

He didn't fully turn his chest and only half-way extended his arm and it was still really close to Conor's chest. If you think that right wouldn't have landed then I don't know what to tell you, apparently you don't know how to punch. It would've literally landed before Conor's punch even if he kept his arm only half-extended and didn't turn in, just by keeping his forward momentum going.

watch from ~ 1:15 \/


P.S. can't wait for the LW matchups, but a Frankie Edgar fight could be really great too. He won't get into Frankie's head for sure.

Because it's a feint and he pulls his hand back....

He scraped the chin but that's actually the worst that can happen for the receiver. Then you apply force at the furthest point of the lever the skull creates with the neck as the fulcrum and the brain crashing into the skull walls at the other end of it. If McGregor had hit him on the cheek or nose instead most of the blow would have absorbed by the neck muscles and maybe waking Aldo up from his nervousness in the process. Great placement.

He sure did, right to the canvas when he was knocked out
