Jose Aldo indeed defends his belt against Chad Mendes on Jan. 14 in Brazil. How do you see the fight playing out?
---
He broke the news on the Cerrone vs. Diaz fight, so he is reliable.

Good move for Johnson to move up the division, but a tough test in Belford
That fight makes no sense at all for Vitor.. And Johnson can win if he wrestles..
Bahadurzada, Broughton, Nedkov scratched from UFC 142; Thiago also reported out

Lets see who the replacements will be...

Champ Jose Aldo vs. *Chad Mendes* - Everyone has a punchers chance, but I'm going to win the Prediction le this year, even if I have to pick -head Brazilians and Brits.
Vitor Belfort vs. Anthony Johnson - I've never understood the love Belfort gets. Johnson is a maniac.
Mike Massenzio vs. Rousimar Palhares - Palhares' last fight made me a fan.
Sam Stout vs. Thiago Tavares - I don't know Tavares, but I've always loved Stout.
Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Ednaldo Oliveira - LOL Gonzaga...
I think 5-0 is a good way to start the year.
*edit*
I really think Mendes is going to win, so I'm officially taking it.
*second edit*
Johnson, you fat . Picking Belfort, even though it hurts my inner sensibilities.

found this picture through bloodyelbow.com
Anthony Johnson training for UFC Rio II in his new MW form:
Same as his WW form he is just not cutting off a leg to make 170 anymore..
He looks worse then b4 cutting to 170
IMO he should take advantage of the new weight class and stay on the same walk around weight. Not to drain his body so much, but oh well

Anthony Johnson has missed weight badly according to Dana White. He will have to weigh in today, and less than 205lbs tomorrow for the fight
Dana just announced on @FUELTV - Rumble can't make MIDDLEWEIGHT - Vitor says he'll still fight him IF AJ's not more than 205 tomorrow
Belfort/Johnson fight on IF Johnson weighs less than 205 tomorrow; Belfort will get 20% of his purse, Dana calls AJ "total unprofessional"
so I'm changing to Vitor either way if this fight still happens..
http://www.ufc.com/news/Rumble-Misse...Fight-Still-On
He ended up weighing 197 at the weigh ins

A welterweight that cannot do MW limit and was close to lhw limit
WTF is that?
he did in on purpose
http://sherdognet.craveonline.com/in...://ht.ly/8t1HO
Medical Reasons LOL
"I tried to cut too much weight and was about to pass out" Medical reason..
Both @DamonMartin and @KevinI report that Johnson fell ill while cutting weight today. UFC doctors gave him fluids and he ballooned up.
Even if he was ill while cutting weight or was just lazy; still going with Belfort now
Ill because he tried to cut down from like 220 i bet. The guy is just a tool. Hope Vitor KO's him and he gets fired tomorrow night..
WTF come on - this is good card!
This forum is down. I might consider going somwhere else
MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view)
Champ Jose Aldo vs. Chad Mendes (for featherweight le)
You heard me. The champ is going down in Brazil. I do not why but I think Mendes can do it with his wrestling even though Aldo was training with one of the toughest /and bigger then Mendes/ wrestlers in Maynard.
3rd R g&p
Vitor Belfort vs. Anthony Johnson
Rumble lost with Belford once and he is gonna do it again although Vitor is not as good as he was and Johnson will have a huge weight advantage.
