Jose Aldo is a professional fighter. He fights in the realm of mixed martial arts in the featherweight division. He is currently fighting in the World Extreme Cagefighting promotion and is the champion of his weight class.

Aldo is a fighter that is only five feet, seven inches and 145 pounds. Many people would look at his size and write him off. The beauty of professional fighting is that these fighters are able to fight others that are more their size. This means that rather than watching the big man take advantage of the smaller man we are able to see the fighter with the most skill take advantage of the fighter that is lacking skills. This is one of the secrets to the success of mixed martial arts.

Aldo is from Brazil and is currently 24 years old. He has a great background in fighting. He trained in the Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jistu realms. He is most achieved in the former of the two as he is a black belt.

Over the course of his career Aldo has been absolutely excellent. He has fought 18 fights to this point and he has proven that he is as good as there is to be found in the WEC. Of his 18 fights ...
... he has managed to win 17 of them. He has only lost one fight to this point in his professional fighting career.

One of the impressive things about Aldo is the amount of power that he packs. Many of the fights in the lower division are dominated by fighters that are really technically sound. Aldo is undoubtedly sound in his technical and ground game, but his power surprises many people. He has shown a great ability to knock people out that is uncharacteristic of fighters his size. He has ended 11 of his 18 fights by way of knockout to this point in his career. He has also won two by way of submission and another 4 by decision.

Aldo really knows how to strike and can make anyone pay as they take the ring with him.

His debut to the WEC came just 2 years ago. Despite only being in the league for two years he has really been able to make his way up the charts. Just one and a half years after his first fight he managed to obtain the belt. He was so good in his fighting that he managed to win Fighter of the Year awards from a couple of different sources. His ability to fight has been noticed by the world and he looks to continue to show that he is one of the greatest fighters to even take part in the sport.

He will soon be able to show just how good he is as he takes on Manvel Gamburyan. This will be another opportunity for him to show that world that he can defend his belt. This fight will take place very soon. The fight is scheduled to take place at the end of September. Aldo will definitely be the favorite entering the fight as these two take the ring.
