I think he is saying Aldo being hit by a car isn't caused by them putting on too many shows. He has posted a bunch of replies telling people who say there are too many shows that they don't know what they are talking about.

Aldo is the dumbass who went and played soccer right after his motorcycle accident.
Co-main of Arlovski/Sylvia V
Or maybe these "fighters" need to toughen up like young McKayla.

To be fair, sweet McKayla is a world class athlete and a Gold Medalist whereas these fighters are...something less, entirely.

Single-handedly caused Exxon-Mobil to sue FOX, start World War 3
They really just need to sign a main event fight with 3 guys from the start. The third man is the alternate, so he'll be in shape when called upon.
That, or schedule cards with similar weight classes/talent levels within two weeks of each other. That way if one drops out, a fill-in will be ready.

So getting a refund on 153. Fuck everything.
134 was awesome. And injury free if I´m not mistaken.

Yeah, I remember. Funny thing is they already offered a refund for 153 after koch pulled out of the main event.

Hey everyone, let's get mad at the man who hasn't had to miss a fight due to some stupid injury, and actually saved a card by taking a fight on short notice. Clearly, HE is the problem with this sport...that coward. Amirite?
It should be company policy that you can't ride a motorcycle when you're scheduled for a fight. Pro sports have clauses they put in contracts forbidding that sort of thing, which is why Roethlisberger and Winslow got in trouble when they got in bike accidents. There's too much money on the line. A fighter's purse should be reduced if they suffer an idiotic injury like that. That's just fucking stupid...no way around it. PEACE.

Wow this sucks. Might as well hire Sylvia and Arlovski to head line lol.
Yeah, let's be real, were talking about a company that put on UFC 147 in the same country without apology.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
at the complete and utter self-destruction of another UFC card especially one as god-tier as this one.My picks for replacements:
Edgar taken off the card completely. Aldo/Edgar can wait. Unless they can find another Brazillian for Edgar to fight then it's a waste.
Rampage replaced with Rashad. Suga is training Belfort so it's not as if he's inactive. Failing that, some dude like Griggs or Te-Huna. The problem here is that this fight is probably going to end up as the main event, so you need a name for it.
I guess this means that we have the potential of Rampage vs. Shogun sometime in 2013.

Hendo vs. Glover isn't happening. Hendo's got his money in the bank briefcase and Glover is being built up as a contender. Putting them together would just derail someone's career.
I'd take a guaranteed scrap over the concept of being "a step down." It's either fighting guys like that on the Australia card or not fighting again until 2013.

Worst case scenario is UFC 153: Silva vs. Fitch. Cancellation is a close second.

I meant Silva vs Glover or Hendo. Silva said he wouldve took a fight at 205 to save 151, don't see why he can't do the same for 153.

Unless Fitch is KTFO'd again, I'd rather the card get cancelled than watch him lay on somebody for 5 rounds.

Isn't it obvious?
Faber vs. Edgar for the interim belt.

Just scrap the bantamweight and featherweight divisions

I would just combine them into a single 140lb division. At least that division would have a modicum of depth.

Junior Flyweight is where it's at.
