UFC and ONE Championship surprised the fight world by the trade that involved both companies and MMA stars Demetrious Johnson and Ben Askren, and opening this door gave ideas to many people involved in the industry.
A short tweet Bellator president Scott Coker moments after the trade was reported by the first got a quick reply by company’s featherweight champion Patricio Freire, suggesting Coker to go after former UFC featherweight king Jose Aldo.
Freire knows that Aldo is much more popular than him in Brazil, noting the fact that his countryman has defended his UFC title multiple times on Brazilian soil.
