Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) Outside of the main event, I"m not looking forward to a single one of these fights.

Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) How heavy of a favorite is Aldo? His gas tank is questionable, right? Edgar may be able to steal a decision in this one. You can never count him out.
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) Ranges from about 2-to-1 to 5-to-2 favourite. I guess the question is whether Frankie can catch Jr's kicks. If he can, makes the fight much more even. If not, he's going to have a boxing match with him and that doesn't favour the challenger.
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) The judge who scored Guillard 30-27 Varner is going to judge the main event at UFC 156. Sometimes I think Keith Kizer is intentionally obstinate. Ok, lying, I always think that about him.
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) I really can't believe this is the Super Bowl weekend card. Seems lackluster.
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) Rashad Evans is a five-to-one favourite to defeat Little Nog this weekend. Does anyone thing Nog has a chance?
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) I hope not. Id like to see evans and silva, and an evans win makes it more likely than a loss
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) Lil Nog has absolutely no shot to beat him, IMO. I don't see Evans getting caught in a sub and I don't think Evans will keep it standing long enough to get his ass knocked out.
Re: UFC 156: Aldo vs. Edgar (Feb/2) Not really. Statistically, obviously he has a shot, and hes a good fighter, but its really tough to see him winning IMO.
