Looks like Aldo looking for that 1 shot…I feel like he needs to pursue the finish at this point #UFC278— Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson (@WonderboyMMA) August 21, 2022

Aldo has one of the best takedown defense in the UFC #UFC278— Thiago Moisés (@ThiagoMoisesMMA) August 21, 2022
Merab gets the win, as expected. Pretty incredible moment shared between the two on the mat, as they hugged and exchanged words for a while.— Ariel Helwani (@arielhelwani) August 21, 2022
Merab has a gas tank. No doubt— Cody Stamann (@CodyStamann) August 21, 2022
That’s a good result for @chitoveraUFC, who is in attendance. It’s a horse race among the top bantamweights to make a statement over the next couple months and Chito is in the lead right now. #ufc278— Brendan Fitzgerald (@BrendanFitzTV) August 21, 2022
What an entrance. Performance of a career here I feel. This guy tailor made for Jose to shine. Styles makes fights. Great matchup!— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) August 21, 2022
