It's taking longer for me to type this sentence. Seriously, was the ref THAT certain Aldo was KTFO? He was going to get punished though i'm sure Aldo rather had taken 20-30 more punches and be out completely cold. yeah, he was down, but half of that to me looked like he tripped

It was a Flash KO, so Aldo was snapping out of it...but the problem was McGregor did jump on him quick with hammerfists. Aldo might have had a slight chance (he seemed to be almost coherent on the third punch, but I'm not an expert in anything of value to make such a call), but it's not a bad stoppage at all and there was no way he was going to get much time after the disasterpiece that was Herb Dean in the immediate fight beforehand.

If I was the ref I would of given Aldo 15 more seconds to respond but Connor was about to do damage so I have no problem with the stoppage.

It has not been the best weekend for Herb Dean. He had a bad fight last night where he let two guys lay on the ground for almost 3 minutes with nobody advancing at all, and then he had a nightmare tonight letting Weidman get pummeled much more than he should have. He stopped the main event at the perfect time. Doesn't make up for the previous one but, at least he has some idea what's going on.

Ok my final thoughts after watching the whole card from Court McGee to the main event:
1. Chuck Liddell looked ancient while walking out Court. 2. Demian Maia reminded me of my passion for grappling that I'm seriously considering dusting off the gi and try to earn my blue belt. He also exposed the bs of the ranking system. 2. Faber vs Dillashaw is gonna be the next money making feud. Expect it to be a giant civil war that could tear apart Team Alpha Male. 3. Yoel Romero could become the biggest villain in mma. He cheats but acts holier than thou. 4. Herb Dean should quit after the abomination that happened today, if something happens to Chris Weidman is on him. 5. Jose Aldo proved that it's never a good idea to fight while being angry.

He should of been given a little more time to attempt to recover but at the end of the day there's no controversy to be had. He got caught and was looking like he was about to get demolished though he was saved from said demolishment.

He probably realized how badly he screwed up the Weidman fight and it made him much quicker on the jump for the main. He's already about to face the media firing squad as it is. Rightfully so.

Aldo went stiff, he was out. The Vines/GIF's don't catch it, but Aldo tried to pull guard on the ref and whoever was helping him while Conor was celebrating.

The only "legitimate" one would be Jon Jones but even with that he lost the title due to being a dumbass and could of seriously hurt that woman but I digress. Ronda needs to get her shit together, Cain needs to stay injury free and have no excuses to lean on, Bones is waiting on Cormier, and now Connor has Frankie waiting in tow. Should be some good upcoming fights with divisions getting a new lease on life.

Big John didn't do the Weidman fight. Yeah he did. He just lost his tan in the time between the fights, that's all.
