UFC champ Jose Aldo to potentially lose Venum sponsorship in October

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is squeezing the the last bit of money out of its combatants' pockets, says one UFC title challenger.

That man has an ally in Featherweight champion Jose Aldo, who after foregoing an individual sponsorship with a "shit" Reebok sponsor -- instead preferring his long-time mixed martial arts (MMA) apparel brand Venum -- might end up without a contract in the near future.

"We have a contract with Aldo until October, and we'll have a conversation to see if it's worth to continue with the sponsorship," Venum's Andre Vieira told Ag.
