I agree with you Ben, Aldo ain't showing up. Promotion for a fight happens up until the actual day of the fight and we are still a few weeks out. If UFC tells us that Aldo is pulling out at this point they would have to spend some serious cash replacing all the posters/billboards/commercials with Chad Mendes and you really cant afford to do that after you just spent MILLIONS promoting this fight. They'll probably switch it up at weigh ins. Gotta look at this from a business standpoint.
I just hate the UFC for making me choose between Team Alpha Male and Conor McGregor.

Holy K.O. that was beautiful!
Tonight Yoel tales the cake. I wish Machida did because he's been one of my favorites for years and I just don't want to see him go, but Yoel's a beast and he's taking it home.
Don't care much about the rest of the card but I've been surprised before.

On the whole Aldo debacle, I think the fight being swapped last minute is a little on the conspiracy theory side. I'm only a casual fan of the sport, so I don't know much of the history, but is there a precedent for stuff like this? Fights get cancelled all the time, but last minute replacements don't happen too often; I at least haven't noticed. Or I'm just blowing smoke and don't know what I'm talking about.
Regardless, I just want to see Aldo/McGregor.

Holy shit Romero! Perfect timing. The copa is mine!
Edit: Did he just cut a promo against marriage equality? For fuck's sake MMA, stop tearing me apart.

That was wild, I thought he was going to win but damn! He looked like a monster...
then he fucked up with all the homophobic shit. It's probably a good thing we couldn't understand him.

Haha, indeed. I don't catch much UFC nowadays since there's an awful lot to keep up with, but I do hear Lawlor on the Fight Network and Observer podcasts from time to time.
