i'm on aldo either way at whatever weight class guys.
I said it 5 months ago loud and clear, and I KNOW the guys that pay attention to MMA know who i had because as you could see above i stated it twice even to go as far to say whatever weight class it doesn't matter...ALDO !
MARK brother have you ever seen mike struggle to take someone down, especially someone he was obviously stronger than ? TEAM NOVA UNIAO invented brazilian jui jitsu.... i'm sorry but mike almost looked helpless going for takedowns. I know you have seen the article i posted a while ago about team nova uniao, but for everyone that has gotten into MMA since then and thinks the gracie's invented BJJ...They didn't ! I'll post it below.Comment

Team Nova Uniao, ever here of gracie's, yea well where do you think they learned it....
A brief History with Nova Uniao's background
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 1914, Esai Maeda (Count Koma) arrived in Brazil. He was a World Champion in Jiu-Jitsu and would travel Japan as a professional wrestler and fight all challengers. Once in Brazil, Esai became friends with Gastao Gracie and as a show of friendship he taught Gastao's son, Carlos Gracie, the art of Jiu-Jitsu.
From that point Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu kept on developing and was spreading all over Brazil. It is a style based more on leverage than strength, so it appeals to people from all walks of life. It is the world’s fastest growing martial art and it will continue to be this way as more and more people are recognizing the need for the grappling arts.
Nova Uniao are the World Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Champions. We are setting the standard around the world for the best competitors and coaches. This is seen in results both locally and internationally. Whether you are doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for self-defence, fitness, personal development or to compete, who better to do it with than the best? Nova Uniao sets a higher standard as all the representative academies are run by black belt instructors with years of competitive and teaching experience. This ensures that our standard stays at the highest possible level. New techniques and innovations are constantly being developed and are integrated into the syllabus on an ongoing basis, making sure our academies and students are always getting the best, most up to date information and instruction.
About Nova Uniao's founder:
Members of the Gracie family are not the only ones to operate federations and associations of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu who may organize tournaments or give rank within the art. In an interview with Andre Pederneiras, a fifth degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and founder of the Nova Uniao team, he was asked about his involvement in the promotion of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and organization of the art's first tournament. He stated that he had organized the first Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament in 1993, then the following questions were asked:
"What is the difference between the first Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament you created and the BJJ Confederation (Carlos Jr.'s) Tournament?"
"Price for one. In my tournament, I charged competitors ten dollars per person and Carlos Gracie Jr. charged thirty dollars. I only charged ten dollars, but I held the event in an expensive place called Club Hebraica. At the time his tournament was held as the Clube Guanabarra and I know he paid nothing for this place."
"Did you collaborate on this event with the president of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Confederation, Mr. Carlos Gracie Jr.?"
"Of course not. The confederation did not exist yet when I was putting this tournament together. After my idea, Carlos Gracie created the Brazilian Confederation and started to make the other Brazilian tournaments."
"So basically he made a much greater profit than you did?"
"Exactly. I created the tournament so that all Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighters could compete and have a good time, not to get rich. Our priorities are were just different."
Jose Aldo has 5 fights in the WEC all 5 have come by way of TKO, this dude hasn't even needed to get on the ground yet, and he's 22 years old and already a 4 time brazilian jiu jitsu champion, as well as World Champion as well, his training partners are Ribiero and a another guy i like a lot that you mentioned above wagnney fabiano. he also trains with thales leites as well all 3 VERY legitimate black belts.
it's said he wants a shot at torres at 135. probably so fabiano could concentrate on 145lb. Aldo will be a good size dog vs torres, and still a dog vs mike brown, i'm on aldo either way at whatever weight class guys.Comment

Wow Also is a beast. Brown had no answer for him!
Quickness was better than power tonite guys!

chung man i hope you did take the dog because i changed one of the picks i sent you and made it that +175 underdog, and the one i did like sure enough lost (garcia) and derabedyan won. derabedyan is in same camp as gamburyan, and most importantly karo parisian, from what i saw of the 2 fighters tonight i'm def taking parisian on sat.Originally posted by WayneChung View Post
That's why i changed the pick....that armenian camp is very hot nowComment

Hey Pain...
I just read that Chad Mendes signed a six fight deal with WEC. I read where they said he may fight as soon as March? I'm hoping I can lay a bet on him. I guess at 5-0 he's got some pretty good skills???
