After a two-fight losing streak courtesy of current UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway, Jose Aldo is back on the winning track with an emphatic knockout win over Jeremy Stephens late last month. It also marked Aldo’s first stoppage win in five years.
Now down to the last three fights in his current UFC contract, the former long-time 145-pound champion is looking at a “big fight” at 155-pounds. But if it were up to his coach Andre Pederneiras, a rematch against Conor McGregor would be the next move to make.
“We can try to angle for a rematch, because I really did think it was unfair and I think most people thought it was unfair that there wasn’t a rematch,” Pederneiras told MMAjunkie.
