Former UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo is in a position right now that he’s never been in before. He’s not the champion, and he doesn’t have his next fight lined up. Aldo has gone on record by saying that he wants a rematch with Conor McGregor after he lost to McGregor at UFC 194 via

McGregor is set to fight Rafael dos Anjos for the lightweight title at UFC 196 then if McGregor wins at UFC 196; he will fight Frankie Edgar in his first featherweight title defense sometime in 2016.

UFC President Dana White recently spoke with ESPN.com.br about Jose Aldo’s future. According to White, he will talk with Aldo and decide what’s next for him.

“I love Jose (Aldo). I’ll call him today (Wednesday) and we’ll talk to decide who’s next for him,” said White.

White has already gone on record by saying that he doesn’t plan on giving Aldo an immediate rematch with McGregor. However, White changed his mind. When asked if the conversation would be about Aldo fighting for the title, White was emphatic. “Yes,” he replied.

Now, the speculation can begin. It’s possible that Aldo could take another fight, or he could wait for McGregor to take care of his business with dos Anjos and Edgar. Either way, the UFC is looking to book a rematch between Aldo and McGregor.

What should the UFC do? Should Aldo wait for McGregor or should the promotion give Aldo another fight in the meantime? Let us know.

Rafael dos Anjos: “Conor McGregor Is Going To Break Like A Girl”

Rafael dos Anjos is feeling confident heading into his UFC 196 fight against Conor McGregor. In an interview with the MMA Hour, dos Anjos spoke about his upcoming UFC Lightweight Championship fight against McGregor.

“If I have an opportunity to finish, I will finish, but I will feel him first. I want to hit him first a couple of times. I want him to feel my power, you know, because his thing is always having such a good time in the Octagon. Everything that he’s predicting has been happening, but I think this time his crystal ball is a little blurry. I think he’s not seeing well, and he’s going to feel the difference. I’m going to show him the bad part of the Octagon. I went through the good part and the bad part, but now I’m going to introduce him to the bad part.”

dos Anjos predicts he will end the fight in two or three rounds.

“My prediction is, I’m going to win for sure,” he said. “I don’t see how this guy can beat me. But, a prediction — this fight will not be five rounds. It’s going to be maybe three or two rounds. This guy, he’s not going to be able handle me for more than two rounds. He’s going to break. He’s going to break like a girl.”

For those that thought Rafael dos Anjos would look for the takedown right away at UFC 196, think again. Lessons learned from Jose Aldo?

UFC 196 stands to be the biggest event of 2016 so far with it’s star studded line up, and could potentially outshine any further PPV (pay-per-view) shows for the rest of the year. As well as the first title defense of women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm against Miesha Tate, UFC 196 houses a lightweight title fight for the ages. Rafael dos Anjos will look to take out the visiting featherweight champion Conor McGregor in the main event.

As is typical for any fight featuring McGregor, the trash talk has been frequent and controversial. Kicking the action off at the recent UFC 196 presser, ‘The Notorious’ angered dos Anjos’ team mate Fabricio Werdum with his slanderous comments. Accusing the lightweight champ of betraying his home nation of Brazil, McGregor declared he’d behead RDA come March 5.

There was a bizarre and hilarious reaction by Fabricio Werdum to McGregor’s awards show rant yesterday, and now dos Anjos has been doing some talking for himself. Check out what he told The MMA Hour h/t MMAMania:

“This guy thinks because he dresses in expensive clothes and he drives nice cars that he has class, but he is classless. He has no class, he’s a lowlife. I can’t wait to go there. I’m not taking it personal, he’s an actor who is acting. Once I go there, I’m a straight guy, I don’t talk, I do. I’m going to go there and send him back home and to his division. He is going to have nightmares with the lightweight division for the rest of his life.”

RDA is not really known for his brash attitude, but it seems he has a severe disliking for McGregor. The subject then turned to how the fight will play out, as many believe the Irishman is the ‘superior’ striker:

“I don’t agree. I think I can beat this guy anywhere. If I fight a jiu-jitsu match with him I will beat him. If I fight a karate match with him, I will beat him. If I fight K-1 rules I will beat him. I think I can beat him anywhere. I am going to do my job, I am going to do what I’ve always done. I’m going to break him standing, he’s going to feel very bad after I hit him hard several times. And if I want, I will take him down and smash him a bit on the ground. I am not going into this fight saying I’m not going to stand with Conor because I don’t think he brings anything different to me. I’m a better fighter everywhere than him.”

Easy money?

As if his upcoming title fight with Rafael dos Anjos wasn’t surrounded by enough trash talk, Conor McGregor is now being slammed by the UFC heavyweight champion…

UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor will look to make history at UFC 196. The Irish striker goes up against the lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos on March 5, 2016, and would become the first ever two-weight champion in the promotion’s history, if he’s able to overcome ‘RDA.’ Since the bout was announced in the wake of McGregor’s 13-second KO over Jose Aldo at UFC 194, the trash talk from ‘The Notorious’ has been at an all time high.

At the UFC 196 press conference, the featherweight champion described dos Anjos as a ‘bum version of Aldo,’ and stated he’d behead the Brazilian ‘traitor’ and drag his lifeless body through the streets of Rio de Janeiro. With all the weight of possibly making UFC history, and now the heated rivalry with ‘RDA,’ it seems ‘The Notorious’ is more than happy to pile all the pressure and expectations on to his own shoulders.

But there’s another beef cooking through all this verbal warfare, and that’s with the UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum. ‘Vai Cavalo’ didn’t like what he saw at the UFC 196 presser, and went on record as saying he would slap Conor McGregor for his disrespectful comments. Also a training partner of dos Anjos at Kings MMA, the pride of his home nation and the friendship with the lightweight champion have urged Werdum to trash talk a man nearly half his own weight.

But it’s not just the situation’s just mentioned, McGregor took it to a whole new level this weekend. Speaking during the Fighters Only MMA Awards, where he’d won ‘fighter of the year,’ ‘The Notorious’ blasted Werdum as a ‘p*ssy’ after he pulled out of his heavyweight title fight with Stipe Miocic when Cain Velasquez had also withdrawn.

The heavyweight champion’s response is simply hilarious. Check it out:

Conor McGregor didn’t spend a lot of time talking about the MMA award he had won, but took a moment to fire some shots at UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum…

UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor is on fire right now. Having destroyed his bitter rival Jose Aldo at UFC 194 after a year long rivalry, he now moves up to lightweight to take on the king of the 155-pound division Rafael dos Anjos. He didn’t waste any time in throwing out some crazy statements about his new Brazilian foe, going as far as accusing RDA of being a traitor to his country, and saying he would behead the lightweight boss at UFC 196 (originally 197).

UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum, training partner of dos Anjos at Kings MMA in Brazil, didn’t take too kindly to McGregor’s brash behaviour at the event’s presser. He reacted by saying he would slap ‘The Notorious One’ if he behaved that way in his presence, and a new rivalry with another Brazilian champion was born, then came the injuries.

It seems every interview or moment in the limelight is big news when Conor McGregor is involved, and even ‘Vai Cavalo’ who is 110 pounds heavier is drawn in to beef with the Irishman. Even though they’ll likely never fight, it hasn’t stopped the rivalry between the two champions growing. After Werdum and Velasquez both pulled out of their title rematch set for today (February 6, 2016) and the entire UFC schedule was pulled back one number, McGregor had a classic response for the stricken champ of the heavys.

White To McGregor On Poster Controversy: You’re Right, Conor

At last month’s UFC 196 (previously UFC 197) press conference, UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor made it vividly clear that he wasn’t happy with the promotional posters for the event. McGregor is scheduled to move up in weight and challenge Rafael dos Anjos for the lightweight title on March 5, 2016 from Las Vegas, Nevada.

At last month’s UFC 196 (previously UFC 197) press conference, UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor made it vividly clear that he wasn’t happy with the promotional posters for the event.

McGregor is scheduled to move up in weight and challenge Rafael dos Anjos for the lightweight title on March 5, 2016 from Las Vegas, Nevada.

At the press conference, the “Notorious” one was angered that he wasn’t holding his title on the poster, and that his belt wasn’t sitting in front of him at the time. While only dos Anjos’ title is on the line, the fight is indeed a battle between two champions.

UFC president Dana White said at the time that the reasoning was, in reality, because RDA was the defending champion, but it seems as if he has since changed his tune.

With the rescheduling of the events, a new poster was forced to be made, and this time, each man has his title with the bout being billed as champion vs. champion. Recently speaking on the changes with the Grant and Danny show (via MMAFighting), White admitted that McGregor was right:

“Conor made his argument, ‘This is a superfight. I’m a [145]-pound champion. He’s the [155]-pound champion. My belt should be represented even though I’m not defending my belt.’

“And I said, ‘You know what? You’re right, Conor. All right, we’ll do it,” White recalls.

In the end, the UFC boss acknowledged that he had a super fight on his hands, making the switch up a necessity:

“We actually switched the poster and they’ve both got their belts and it’s champion vs. champion,” said White. “It’s a superfight: 45 vs. 55 for the 55-pound title.”
