Former UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo will return to the Octagon tomorrow (Sat. February 2, 2019).
He’ll co-headline UFC on ESPN+ 2 from the Centro de Formação Olímpica do Nordeste in Fortaleza, Brazil. Aldo will be facing his fellow countryman Renato Moicano. Before that fight was made official, however, Aldo told media recently that he was offered a fight with lightweight fan favorite Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone.
However, the UFC seems to be going in a different direction with Cerrone, likely matching him up with Conor McGregor next. Instead, Aldo proposes a fight with former 155-pound champion Anthony “Showtime” Pettis (via MMA Fighting):
“This fight was very close (to happening),” Aldo said. “They offered it to us and I was really happy because we’re both aggressive fighters and it would be a big fight, but the discussion has taken another path now, he’s trying to fight Conor (McGregor) and I don’t see how this fight happens now.
“But (Anthony) Pettis would be an excellent opponent. We were close to fighting twice before and didn’t happen. Having this fight in May, at lightweight, would be even better.”
Pettis is gearing up to make his welterweight debut against former 170-pound title challenger Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson. They’ll face off at UFC Nashville on March 23rd. Should both Pettis and Aldo emerge victorious in their next bouts, it would make for a huge dream fight between the pair.
As far as who else Aldo has on his list of potential opponents moving forward, the Brazilian said he’s down to scrap with anyone in the top-15 at 145 pounds. He also mentioned he’d fight a few lightweights, such as Dustin Poirier:
“Every ranked featherweight, down to the No. 15,” Aldo said. “I put some lightweights there as well, like Dustin Poirier and other ranked fighters. All 15 names. Take a look at the rankings and that’s pretty much my list.”

For most of his UFC career, Jose Aldo reigned as a UFC titleholder.
However, at this point in his career, with just a few fights left, Aldo is without a belt. While he plans on hanging up his gloves for good soon, the prospect of retiring without a title around his waist saddens the Brazilian legend (via MMA Junkie):
“I get very sad about that, you know,” Aldo said. “I dreamed of retiring as a champion, if you see my previous interviews, I always talked about that, that I wanted to go out as a champion and enjoy life a bit. But it’s not what’s been happening.
“I think it’s very hard for them to match me up against Max for a third time, so this frustrates my plans a little, my desire of being champion and leaving as champion. But that’s part of it.
“Now we don’t have this possibility, we’ll see what happens in the future. But it’s one step at a time. The first step is to beat Renato and we’ll see what happens as the year goes by.”
Aldo was introduced to the UFC as the first-ever 145-pound champion. He went undefeated for four years before being stopped for the first time by Conor McGregor in 2015. After reclaiming the featherweight throne, he was once again knocked off in back-to-back fights with curret division king, Max Holloway.
Now, Aldo has just a few fights left on his UFC deal. The first of his last three will take place this weekend (Sat. February 2, 2018) in his native Brazil. He’ll be taking on Renato Moicano in the co-main event of UFC on ESPN+ 2.

Jose Aldo doesn’t have many fights left in his mixed martial arts (MMA) career.
One of his last is set to go down next month at UFC on ESPN+ 2 from the Centro de Formacao Olimpica do Nordeste in Fortaleza, Brazil on February 2nd. He’ll face rising featherweight contender and fellow countryman Renato Moicano. Despite being one of the greatest featherweights of all time, and coming off a TKO win over Jeremy Stephens in July, Aldo is listed as a betting underdog against Moicano.
Speaking to Combate, Aldo said he “don’t give a sh*t” about being an underdog:
“I couldn’t care less about it,” Aldo said. “I don’t give a sh-t. I don’t care about gambling at all. I’m only interested in my training, my team and my potential to get in there and win my fights.”
Aldo suffered his first defeat in over a decade to Conor McGregor in December of 2015. He went on to reclaim the featherweight throne against Frankie Edgar the following July. However, he’d again drop the title, this time, to Max Holloway in back-to-back fights. This past summer Aldo won his first fight since July of 2016.
He finished Stephens in the first round of their match-up in Calgary. With just three fights left on his UFC contract, Aldo is hoping for another run at the gold before hanging up his gloves.

Jose Aldo’s mixed martial arts (MMA) career is beginning to wind down.
The Brazilian MMA legend only has a few fights left before he hangs up his gloves for good. Aldo recently spoke at a media day in Rio de Janeiro. “Scarface” revealed that he plans on fighting three more times this year before retiring (via MMA Fighting):
“I want to end my career here in Brazil. That’s what we have planned,” Aldo said. “I want to do these three fights… I’ll fight in Fortaleza now, and I’m already negotiating my next one for May (UFC 237), if I’m not mistaken in Curitiba, and then finish it in the second semester, which I know will have another event in Brazil.”
Aldo’s longtime coach and manager Andre Pederneiras revealed that they asked the UFC to put Aldo’s remaining three fights in Brazil so he can retire in his home country:
“We asked them to complete Aldo’s contract fighting in Brazil so he could give the final three fights of his career to the Brazilian fans here,” Pederneiras said.
“That’s his will, that’s what he asked Dana (White), and apparently that’s what’s going to happen.”
The first of those three fights will go down early next month (Sat. February 2, 2019). Aldo will face rising 145-pound contender and fellow countryman Renato Moicano. The pair will co-main event UFC on ESPN+ 2 from the Centro de Formacao Olimpica do Nordeste in Fortaleza, Brazil. Aldo recently picked up his first win since July 2016.
He finished Jeremy Stephens at UFC on FOX 30 last July. Perhaps now Aldo can rack up another win streak and exit the UFC with a title opportunity.
