Jose Aldo isn’t happy about his treatment by UFC officials. Aldo has a major
problem about not getting another fight against Conor McGregor. Aldo assumed
that McGregor would have to defend his featherweight championship against him
but when it was announced that McGregor was going to fight Eddie Alvarez at UFC
205 instead he got ticked off. Aldo told MMAFighting.com, “Conor himself said
before that he wouldn’t give his belt away by any chance and nobody would take
it away from him. After all this, I see I can’t trust any word from President
Dana White, and who’s in charge of the promotion now is Conor McGregor. Since
I’m not here to be an employee of McGregor, today I ask to cancel my contract
with the UFC. When they offered me a fight with Frankie Edgar, Dana said that
the winner would challenge McGregor or win the linear title, that he would lose
his belt if he didn’t return to the featherweight division after his rematch
with Nate Diaz. After being fooled so many times, I don’t feel motivated to
fight in the UFC anymore.” Aldo has had a meeting with White and matchmaker Sean
Shelby and after said that the conversation went well so he isn’t ready to leave
just yet. |
