Review: 2012-01-14, great fight between Jose Aldo and Chad Mendes especially for the impressive KO at the end of the first round. Jose Aldo (20-1-0) entered as the No.1 featherweight in the world while the undefeated Chad Mendes (11-0-0) entered as the No.5. Aldo vs Mendes is valid for the UFC Featherweight Championship (main event of the UFC 142); they also faced each other a second time on October 25, 2014 (=Aldo vs Mendes 2). Watch the video!
