Jose Aldo (32-8-0) versus Mario Bautista (14-2-0) is the third UFC 307 main card fight this weekend. This battle was promoted to the main event after an injury forced the Aljamain Sterling vs. Movsar Evloev fight to be moved to UFC 310 in December. The 38-year-old Aldo is a former UFC champ and will make his 22nd appearance in the franchise this weekend. He returned from retirement this year with a dominant win against Jonathan Martinez in UFC 301. But Bautista won’t make it easy for him to get his second win on the bounce. The 31-year-old American is riding on a six-fight winning streak, making this matchup even more enjoyable. It’s a matchup between youthfulness and experience.
