Honestly, while Aldo did outclass him for two rounds, I thought Jung was close on winning the third (50/50) and Aldo looked super tired going into the 4th and got clocked right in the mouth by Jung just a minute or so before the end of the fight. While Aldo was in a good position, Jung's conditioning looked much better and the whole trying to wrestle Jung in the third round really tired him out. While he was able to take Zombie down, he really did nothing on the ground, with Jung being the one trying to pull out submissions and getting in the punches.

Not saying KZ would have won if it went on, but it seemed like Jung was waiting to get into the later rounds, tire out Aldo, and then go in for the kill. The fight was opening up and if it wasn't for the shoulder, could have been a crazy last two rounds. Hopefully Zombie can come back rather quickly, take a title eliminator, and then face Aldo if he can win that in a rematch.

which is why you write for sc2 and not mma, hit poor foot was a club. aldo was grappling and waiting for zombie to throw something significant to counter due to his injury.

What a gross fight. That foot and that shoulder had me squirming. I don't think Aldo was going to get tired enough to lose the fight though...KZ needed a better pace and a lot more movement in the first 3 rounds :\
edit: I also felt that Aldo should have capitalized on KZ in the first 2 rounds. I think Aldo could have finished him.
