Former Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight titleholder Jose Aldo will be back in the Octagon on Feb. 2, when he faces rising contender Renato Carneiro at UFC Fight Night 144 in Fortaleza, Brazil. Not long ago, Aldo was considered all but untouchable at 145 pounds, but a knockout defeat to Conor McGregor and back-to-back losses to Max Holloway flipped the switch and led some to believe that the Brazilian’s career was nearing its end. However, a first-round stoppage of Jeremy Stephens in July quieted his critics and showed Aldo still had some gas left in the tank.
