I think for Aldo it might legitimately be that he just doesn't think Pettis should walk right into a title shot. I mean, that would be two guys in a row who dropped down from LW to get title shots without fighting in the division at all. Where's the respect for the guys who have been working their way up at 145 like you're supposed to do, like KZ and Lamas?

What does he care who he fights? He probably gets a flat salary plus a ppv percentage. Most people probably would rather watch pettis over lamas or kz. Therefore he would likely make more money on that fight. I bet his managers are trying to be smart about this. Pettis could very well have better striking than aldo.

My impression of Aldo is that he's a principled man.

I think Aldo would have a leg to stand on if he hadn't took the Edgar fight. Since he did, he needs to STFU and fight Pettis .
