Round 5 was closer than rounds 1 and 2 but there's no reason any objective person should've scored it for Edgar.

If aldo used that jab all night long instead of the first 2 rounds only I think alll 5 rounds would have went aldo's way, regardless I wanna see zombie vs aldo next for an entertaining fight, please not lamas or swanson again next

What kind of genius listens to commentary they hate so much? Wouldn't mom mute it for you?

That doesn't surprise me. I scored that round for Edgar but with that small of a margin I'd still probably give it to Aldo on damage. That front kick probably broke Edgar's nose and most of Edgar's strikes were weak leg kicks.

I think aldo ****ed up by not using more leg kicks and jabs throughout every round, i'm very impressed by aldo's TDD because as you know frankie has taken everyone down including aldo but aldo stuffed most of them and sprung up on the 3 frankie grabbed.

Ugh on Twitter everyone is calling for a rematch...

I hate them all.

I think Edgar won rounds 4 and 5 but overall I think Aldo was the superior fighter, by quite much.

I must say, I expected Aldo to be a little more aggressive though.

Edgar fought well towards the end of the fight, he tried to rack up points by going with leg kicks Forrest Griffin style but the judges weren't convinced.

I dislike the way Aldo fights sometimes...he fights too rigidly these days. I feel like sometimes he forgets...as Chael Sonnen would say, he's in a fistfight.

Maybe a move to 155 would fix that.

I though Edgar took the last 3 rounds comfortably as did the majority of the people in the theater I was watching the fight in. I thought Rogan should have taken Aldo's balls out of his mouth though cause him and Goldie were all over them and the commentary was pretty one sided tonight up until the final round.
