When Aldo Showed He Was Still Elite
Спорт
In 2017 the legendary José Aldo lost his UFC Featherweight title to Max Holloway, and loss in the rematch later that year also. Some believed that Aldo's run at the top was over and a sharp decline was evident. But in 2018 Aldo would defeat a surging contender in Jeremy Stephens with a spectacular hook to the body that would eventually lead to a TKO. Aldo showed plenty of emotion after the finish and said it was due to his difficult 2017. But he credited his team and family during the postfight press conference for helping him bounce back and win. #ufc #josealdo #shorts

Glad you highlighted this win. People forget Aldo was an underdog going in here. People thought he was done.

@@srr3097 yes I agree. But that’s doesn’t make him a top fighter. That power will only get u so far. Before Aldo loss, he beat Gilbert Melendez who was on a 3 fight losing streak before fighting Jeremy. Lost to pettis for the title (don’t know how he got a title shot off beating Diego Sanchez), lost to Eddie Alvarez who wasn’t even good enough to stay in the ufc for long, and lost to Edson who is a gatekeeper of the sport then he fought Jeremy and lost. Beat Doo ho Choi who wasn’t even ranked and his 3 wins in the ufc were against nobodies then went on a 4 fight losing streak. His only notable recent win was against Josh Emmett, and even Josh can’t break in to the top 5 in that division. After loss to aldo, Jeremy went on a 5 fight losing streak and got cut from the ufc and went to boxing and lost miserably there also, and once again by Jose Aldo and idk how many other guys. Maybe 1 or 2. I don’t really follow that silly boxing stuff with the KZreadrs and celebrity boxing stuff. So again, he fought Jeremy Stephen’s, stop it lol. Besides Emmett, who are some top guys Jeremy beat? All the top guys he fought he lost to.

Never underestimate a man who held the belt for nearly a decade

The thing about Aldo too is that for what he accomplished he really wasn’t even into martial arts until pretty late in life compared to most of the folks he ended up competing against at the top level. It takes a special athlete to do that. I remember always hearing he had a legit shot to dedicate to a professional soccer career if he went that route.

Aldo a true legend
One of the greatest pure martial artists to do it. People forget. Best in the division ever.
The disrespect this legend was getting during the McGregor era was so sad
Aldo is such a stud! One of the greatest to ever do it. There is a great video about how he skillfully negates the low kick that has become a primary weapon of so many fighters in the last 3-4 years. Prime Aldo would have starched Max imo.
Aldo was a beast during his prime. Even the greatest warrior suffer a beatdown on the dawn of their career. Still they are legends and the best of their time. Respect to this people.

Aldo is a beast. People talk about some fighters today as if they were legends, when they don't stay on the top for more than a couple of years. Aldo defended his belt for over 10 years. Stayed on the top for 15 years.
Why people disrespect this legend like this. he was undefeated for and champion for over 10 years in the ufc. Why people look at him losing and forget his record as that way way outshines his losses now.
All my homies love Aldo
Aldo lost his prime but he never stop to bee elite until his las fight . He was always and elite fighter. The legend Jose Aldo jr
Isnt that the "who da fuq is that guy" guy?
Never disrespect the king of Brazil , Jose Aldo will always be the OG super star of UFC.
I’m no big Jeremy stephens fan but I always respect what he brings to fights. You need guys like him that will bring this out of people.
I'll be forever a fan.

A lot of people still don't give a aldo the respect he's earned. I mean the man literally went on a stint where he didn't lose a fight for nearly a decade. In this sport, that is literally unheard of
I remember when Jose was Jose.. glad he found his MOJO!

My first ever ufc event
Still one of my fav fighters ever his prime was elite
Such a sick body shot
