Rumors have begun to swirl that former UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo was interested in making a move down to 135 pounds. And not only that, but the rumors also indicated that Aldo was gunning for a fight with bantamweight titleholder Henry Cejudo, who also currently reigns as the promotion’s flyweight champion.
On Wednesday, Aldo confirmed these rumors to be true when he took to his official Twitter account to call out Cejudo. In recent years, the UFC has appeared to lean more towards “money fights” and matching up the sport’s biggest names against each other.
