As if the upcoming title unification fight between Featherweight champion Jose Aldo and interim title holder, Conor McGregor, didn't have enough drama built into it going into this weekend's (Sat., Dec. 12, 2015) UFC 194 pay-per-view (PPV) event, Aldo's wife just added a little more to the explosive mix.
According to Vivianne Pereira's comments to Combate.com (via MMA Fighting), Dana White tried to pressure her husband into sucking it up after he broke a rib that eventually forced him out of his original fight against McGregor at UFC 189 earlier this year.
And when Team Aldo didn't fold to the pressure of losing out millions of dollars, Pereira says the promotion had no other choice but to finally cancel the bout.
