Tim Marchman Joins Press Row
By: Jordan Breen
Every Wednesday, Administrative Editor Jordan Breen welcomes a member of the mixed martial arts media into “Press Row” on the Sherdog.com blog. This week, Breen is joined by Deadspin fight columnist and The Classical.org co-founder Tim Marchman.
Read more
With several notable lightweight-to-featherweight storylines present at the UFC on Fox 6 and the Jose Aldo-Frankie Edgar headliner on deck for UFC 156, Breen and Marchman analyze the curious relationship between the two divisions. The pair discuss the continuing exodus from 155 to 145 pounds, what the current contendership status of those former lightweights tell us about the divisions, whether or not elite featherweights could stack up with the best at 155 and what Aldo-Edgar means for both divisions.
The two also contemplate whether the seemingly unique, kissing cousins-type relationship between the divisions could improve the potential for unique fights between fighters from other weight classes, the overwhelming importance of stylistic matchups in these categories and the emergence of a new kind of main eventer for the UFC product.

From PVT 38: A Closer Look at Jose Aldo vs. Frankie Edgar
By: Marcelo Alonso
On Feb. 2 in Las Vegas, Jose Aldo will face what many point to as the biggest challenge of the UFC featherweight champion’s career. At UFC 156, the Brazilian faces former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar, who moved down from that weight class straight to a 145-pound title shot.
The 38th edition of PVT Magazine takes a detailed look at the upcoming confrontation using statistics for both fighters. Also examined are Edgar’s career at lightweight and the injury that prevented Aldo from facing Edgar at UFC 153 last October. In addition, PVT conducts exclusive interviews with a number of experts in the fight game to find out their opinion on one of the most anticipated fights in recent years.
