I read somewhere over the weekend that White said that Aldo’s rib isn’t broken, he skipped the fight because he couldn’t make weight.
I read that article too. The broken rib was a healed area from a previous injury, although Aldo’s doctor insisted otherwise.
Aldo, has had trouble making weight in the past, so I would tend to believe the story. Plus, it really appeared to me that Conor was really getting to Aldo.
Finally, this allows the UFC to have a mega event for the last December PPV (which is usually a major) or the big PPV on Super Bowl weekend Saturday.
