UFC 156 - Aldo v. Edgar/ Overeem v. Silva - Feb. 2 - Las Vegas

rewatching the title fight on DVR... I don't care what anyone says: when Frankie comes running out to "Kick In the Door" - gets me hype for his fight every time.

By the way, what do you think of the 10-8?
For me, the scoring should binary 0/1
The judges never gives 10-8, so why a 10 points system???
Maia had no 10-8. If there is not 10-8, it's just useless.
And if there is a 10-8 every 5 years, what about 10-7???

Aldo/Pettis has been set for August.

Oh no... I don't get Pettis here.
I think he is way too much "on fire" right now.
He won convincingly and people talk high about him, so he wants everything everywhere.
Some people should have calm him down and make him realize that he earned his title shot in 155 and waiting should have been better

Let me say I excited about this fight and think it will be Aldo's toughest test by far. With that said, it makes no sense from a matchmaking perspective.

One, the timing makes no sense. August? Between the Jones/Sonnen fight and this August card there are 5 cards this fight could headline (Memorial Day, June Brazil Card, July 4th, Mid July PPV and a Fox card in July). The only card with a current main even is the June Brazil card (Nog v. Werdum) and I expect that Cain will headline one of them and Silva v. Weidman will be on another. That still leaves two cards that this fight could headline. Aldo took very little damage against Edgar so I see no reason why we have to wait 6 mos for this fight

Two, you have people like Zombie and Lamas who could fight for the belt this summer. Also, who does the Bendo/Gil winner fight now? Maynard? Jim Miller?
