WEC News: Manny Gamburyan Ain't Skurred Of Jose Aldo
From Sherdog:
"I know myself," he said. "If anybody fights Jose Aldo, you can’t be scared of him. I look at it this way: Whoever fights Anderson Silva, if you go look at the tape, everybody is scared of him. They’re not going in there 120 miles per hour, 120 percent (confident) that they’re going to win the fight. Like I said, I’m not taking anything away from Mike Brown. He’s a great fighter, a great champion, but when I signed that contract to fight Mike Brown, I was like, ‘I’m going to beat Mike Brown.’ I don’t care that he’s Mike Brown. That’s the way that I look at it."
Gamburyan said he wasn’t scared of Brown and he won’t be scared of Aldo either.
"That’s going to be a big thing," Gamburyan said. "I won’t be scared, I promise you. When I walk into the cage, I’m going to look in his eyes and I’m going to say, ‘I’m going to take the belt from you.’"
Earlier in the piece, Gamburyan expressed that he was pissed that the betting lines placed him as a huge underdog prior to his fight with Mike Brown. He beat the odds that night, but he'll be an even larger underdog if and when he and Jose Aldo meet. I'll admit that I thought Gamburyan would get destroyed against Mike Brown, but the odds of him catching Aldo like that are pretty much zero. You interested in a Gamburyan/Aldo showdown?

Man it looks like Manny is about to go to town, proctologist-style, in that pic.
As far as Aldo/Gamburyan goes… well, it’s what’s on offer – I don’t consider him a less worthy contender than Urijah who came into the Aldo fight 2-2 in his last 4.
"I don't care, hit him with your groin!"

I was completely surprised by the outcome in the Minny/Brown fight. Lightning won’t strike twice. Aldo should have some fun with the little guy. I’m interested b/c I’d like to see Aldo get back to his finishing ways – that will happen.
People keep bringing that up like it’s the only thing Manny has on his resume, study up on the guy and you’ll see that he is the type of guy to give Aldo fits in a fight.
I've seen all of his fights from TUF on
He’s tailor made for Aldo.
A grappler without strong takedowns,and horrible defense.Aldo will do whatever he wants with him.

he’s been terrible to watch in every fight BUT the quick KO of Mike Brown. His fights are CHANNEL CHANGERS.
Gatti. Dekkers. Pele. Aoki. Kang. Vanderlei. Basillio. Harry Greb.
