Picking & Grinning: UFC 212 ‘Aldo vs. Holloway’


The Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title will soon be splintered no more.

Jose Aldo and Max Holloway will meet to unify the 145-pound crown in one of the year’s most anticipated bouts, as they lock horns in the UFC 212 main event on Saturday at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro. In the women’s strawweight co-headliner, Claudia Gadelha square off in a three-round battle between two of the promotion’s best at 115 pounds.
