Just days after he was awarded the new UFC featherweight title by Dana White, Jose Aldo has been forced to pull out of his scheduled UFC 125 title defense against Josh Grispi due to an undisclosed injury.
Heavy MMA first reported the news on Tuesday afternoon, and MMA Fighting has confirmed it with sources.
Aldo (18-1), the final WEC featherweight champion, most recently defeated Manny Gamburyan in September. He captured the 145-pound title in November 2009 when he defeated Mike Brown via second round TKO.

("Easiest title win EVA!!")
According to a report from Heavy.com, newly crowned UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo has been forced out of his planned first title defense against Josh Grispi at UFC 125 in January.
Aldo was presented with the belt during last weekend’s UFC 123 event in Auburn Hills, Michigan and if he really wanted to make an interesting mark in the MMA record books, he would go through with our suggestion that he retire as the only UFC champion with an 0-0 record in the Octagon.
There’s no word on the nature of the injury, but there’s bound to be a plethora of rumors about how Aldo got hurt. We actually have it on good authority that it was groin pull he sustained during his first Smashers Club get together on Saturday night.
We’ll have more details as they emerge.

November is a month without any title fights, which makes it a good time to take a long view of the future title picture in each weight class. Today we look at the featherweight division.
The best fighter making the transition from World Extreme Cagefighting into the UFC will be Jose Aldo, the featherweight champion who belongs in the debate about the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. Getting Aldo bigger in front of a bigger audience will be a big step forward for American MMA.
See what we did there? PicProps: FiveKnuckles.comWelcome one and all to 3am A-Hole, where we yell at each other drunkenly after last call in a belligerent manner and misspell stuff. Now, this was originally conceptualized as a streaming major live event on CagePotato, with exclusive interviews planned with Alistair Overeem and Dana White all simultaneous-like. Unfortunately, since neither of them are responding to the messages we Facebooked them, those plans were scrapped. To be honest, we hadn’t figured out the streaming-interview technology anyway, but whatevs, brah. Shit would have been dope.
Anyways, with a firm deadline looming and no White-Overeem love fest to carry us, we decided to go with a Comments of the Week edition. CagePotato posts what it claims to be Comments of the Week, but friends, they are lying to you. We’ve examined documents known as calendars, and we believe we can prove that these jokers are going weeks, sometimes months, between comment reviews. Well, Potato Nation, you can believe that 3am A-Hole is going to pick up the slack. We’ll pick out some comments from roughly the last week for extra appreciation; really good ones might show up on a Comments of the Month column. Hell, we may actually reward you in some material fashion, but don’t hold your breath. Now, you may ask: Why? Oh great Potato, why would you shower us with more attention and entertainment? Well, Nation, it’s because we love you. Also, you love talking about yourselves, and it keeps you occupied while we’re hammered.
