Jose Aldo doesn’t want to be in the UFC anymore, and his team is willing to go to court to fight out of his contract with the promotion.
Aldo announced on Tuesday that he wants his contract with the promotion terminated after the UFC announced that UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor would fight at 155 pounds against lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez, and wouldn’t have to vacate the 145-pound belt.
Aldo, who won the interim featherweight title in July and hoped to face "The Notorious" next to unify the belts, criticized the promotion for letting McGregor make the calls, and went on to say he no longer wants to fight MMA.
