Rob Font is confident he has the answers to Jose Aldo’s game; he just wasn’t able to put them together in the UFC on ESPN 31 main event. Font (19-5 MMA, 9-4 UFC) had his winning streak snapped Saturday when he suffered a unanimous decision loss to Aldo (31-7 MMA, 13-6 UFC) in the bantamweight headliner at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. He had a strong start to the fight, but once his opponent started to find his range, it went downhill. Aldo’s power proved to be the difference inside the octagon. He dropped Font twice over the course of 25 minutes, and any time Font started to gain some momentum, a hard shot would swing the action back the other way. The strikes created a lot of damage around Font’s eye, and he said it compromised his vision to the point he struggled to see what was coming
