I had Fiziev winning but 30-27 is loco. Song is a lad.

Amazing turnaround and finish from Vicente!

Glad to see Penne pick up another win in impressive fashion, but do feel bad for Karolina taking her fifth straight loss. 

Yeah, 12-2 to 12-7 losing five in a row. Not sure if Karolina Kowalkiewicz gets one more fight or not.

Kowalkiewicz needs to retire. She was one of the best in the division but her chin is gone and that was what allowed her to stand in the pocket without any head movement and throw those crisp straight punches. Now everything is off because she can't do that anymore.

Jose Also fighting at Bantamweight. With his weight cut troubles at Bantamweight, we all thought he'd move up to Lightweight. Aldo's walkout is still one of the best with Rihanna's Run This Town.

Incredible high skill level. Aldo doesn't throw the leg kicks like that anymore tho, so commentators need to get over that. Munhoz gonna land more i think.

Shits this isn't 5 rounds, man.

Aldo more efficient but Munhoz's volume takes it. Pedro hit some big shots but missed a lot, Aldo's offense was clean.

Vivisection guys talked about how the counters off the leg kick are exactly why Aldo doesn't throw 'em anymore.

Jose Aldo with the body punches. More need to rip the body.

Throwing to the body against somebody as dangerous as Munhoz is risky fucking business. Aldo looks so much bigger though.

Fuck this fucking crowd for booing. Technical masterpiece with feints, counters, and changes in strategy. Munhoz was getting in on the inside after throwing from outside in round 1 and early 2.

Munhoz's weakness is his defense (he makes that up by having a granite chin) and he's in there with the defensive GOAT at the lighter weights. Third round is all Aldo. 29-28 Jose. He started circling away once Munhoz tried to close the gap in the third. Only one guy winning a fight at the range they fought in the third round. Genius.

Jose looks as good as he ever has. Need another Yan fight.

Jose Mother fuckin Aldo. Still a goddamn G.

The last few fights he's looked good early and then fades(which seems natural because of mileage), but this fight he kept a solid pace and then turned it up in the third. I don't think anyone expected that, including Munhoz' face.

Hopefully with a better referee. Leon Roberts let it go too long at UFC 251 in the fifth round, Aldo on all fours and face down on the canvas as Yan punched him.
