Holloway, the champion, also needed to completely de-robe to make 145lbs but he will not be thanking fellow fighter Justin Gaethje for lifting the towel just before the Hawaiian took to the scales. Blurring technology at the ready...
Before the weight-cut dramas, Aldo had been talking a good fight. He told Brazilian outlet Combate:
