lots of respect for aldo not choosing to cripple faber permanently, and giving him the honor of finishing the fight even though he could have put him in a wheel chair permanently with just a few more leg kicks. mercy is an invaluable personality trait.

Jose’ Aldo was NOT playing it safe as the great J.R. suggested. Aldo knew what damage he put on Urijah and decided to show mercy rather than inflict anymore serious damage. These are two legends of the sport and I’m glad to see Jose’ still going strong.

No FW has achieved that, so ya greatest FW of all time. The only legacy Conor is gonna leave behind is never defending any of the 4 belts he won and sucker punching old men in bars, breaking fans phones and other childish temper tantrums.

My friend and i were huge Faber fans in the wec days. When this fight was announced he asked me "what do you think" I said that Uriah didn't have anything for this guy. I was wrong he had a TON of heart. Mad Respect to that Man.

"Brazil your a dump"

Faber absorbed & fought through some of the most excruciating kicks in MMA history to the thigh for 5 rounds, I could only imagine the damage Aldo would have done if he directed them at the calf. It's likely Faber's leg would've literally given out & wouldn't of had the opportunity to "tough" it out. Regardless, Faber's one of the most resilient & stubborn fighters in MMA & more then deserves his place in the UFC Hall of Fame

His leg doubled in size and he was on crutches the next day. It was insane!

Useally kickibixing drills condition the quads for damage, the reason calf kicks work is because no one activity conditions the meaty part of the calf

@@smesh4190 calf kicks are actually relatively easy to check. You can't really condition nerves and the one around the calf isn't well protected. Thai fighters stand square as compared to mma and they check calf kicks really easy. Funnily enough, Aldo has the best calf kick defense in all of MMA right now. Because MMA fighters tend to stand more bladed and stand lower as compared to other striking arts, you aren't naturally in a position to just turn your knee out to check them. Lifting also keeps you under the risk of being caught cause you can't move out of striking range and you don't have a good base to sprawl. Aldo just swivels both legs. Really cool.

That's why more fighters are targeting the calf. While thigh kicks will compromise mobility really tough dudes like Faber will gut through the horrific pain. When done well calf kicks just short-circuite the nerve. Doesn't matter how tough you are if your nerves can't respond to your brain, you aren't standing up.

Two legends WEC had so much talent, multiple hof. Shoutout to versus

Aldo’s pivoting is so underrated. He doesn’t move back as much as move to a new angle to attack.

Aldo showed great respect for Faber in the last round. It would appear that he didn’t want to continue attacking him to prevent possible permanent damage to Faber’s leg. He knew Faber wouldn’t quit, and out of respect, he didn’t go in for the finish that could have done permanent damage. I’m sure he was wanting a rematch in the future.

Aldo's corner telling him not to go to his guard, to tell him to get up, and even so Aldo didn't, he knew he had already won the fight and he didn't want to hurt the opponent anymore

I remember watching this fight live..i was at my friends house i was the only one rooting for Aldo....been a fan since the beginning of his wec career..this is literally the fucking goat..he defended the belt multiple times against top ranked fighters in their prime in wec and the ufc

This fight was one of the best fights ever and I never get tired of watching it ❤👌💥💥

Most underrated champ for sure. Aldo is a legend

Man. Looking back at this fight, Aldo is just a beast. I have to say that Faber took that ass woopen like a man. Most people would have not answered that bell. We have seen men walk out the ring after much less than that. He is a real tough dude

WEC Aldo = GOAT

Been a big fan of these fighters since 2009

Aldo showed soo much mercy. What true sportsman. Fabor is all heart here too. This fight was tugging on the heart strings for both fighters! I Salute you both 🫡

Mario Yamasaki: If the leg doesn't tear off his body, im not stopping the fight!

This was the absolute biggest fight in FW history at the time And Jose Aldo put the whole world on notice He can ruin anyone, even the ELITE And probably the only time jose has been booed by fans

You can totally see at the end when he goes to walk off upset Aldo stops him says come here man it’s okay bro u will come back and be better and kissed his head this dude has so much respect he just came one of my all time favorites

Great match! Faber's TOUGHEST defeat... Aldo was a true champion!

12 years of this fight and Aldo continues to be beaten ass of fighters.

I am from South Africa and I salute Jose Aldo, he is a legend man. One of the mma greats. I am a huge fan of Brazilian fighters and Aldo is right up there with the best of the best.

Love both of these warriors. Faber was my first fav MMA fighter. Aldo gained my respect and admiration for fights like these and many others.

Sempre quis ver essa luta completa, obrigado por postar.

José Aldo, é muito humilde e além de vencer seu oponente, ele ainda o cumprimentou e também foi cumprimentar os treinadores do rapaz. E por isso, que com essa humildade ele chegou onde chegou. José Aldo, is very humble and in addition to beating his opponent, he still greeted him and also greeted the boy's coaches. And that's why with this humility he got where he is.
