So to me Altamirano is 0-2 in the UFC, while Da Silva has looked bad he's at Diego Lima Chute Box where he should be improving drastically.
I just can't bring myself to do it 😪

Oh wait @Ag3nt_X you're the one who challenged me, not the illiterate guy. Hmm, probably shouldn't have gone off on him so hard but tis life. Alright dipass, I accept your challenge. But if Aldo wins you have to change your pfp to whatever I want for a month. Same rules apply.
High stakes for the fight are what I love to see you Dagestani ****rider, I'll be sure to tag you when Aldo wins

My main concern for Usman is the clinch, he may not be able to control it as well as he usually does because Edwards has a very good clinch striking game
