Jose Aldo Junior is dead serious about leaving the UFC and not even Conor McGregor could entice him back.
http://www.foxsports.com/ufc/story/jose-aldo-says-not-even-a-rematch-with-conor-mcgregor-would-bring-him-back-to-the-ufc-100416

Poor Jose Aldo can't even get a shot from Conor McGregor after their 1st match waiting him for nothing. I'm just waiting for the their rematch, but Alvarez got the opportunity for the UFC 205, this going to be a good match though. Hope to see bloody fight, a street fight in the octagon.



Drama.  There was an article somewhere (I'll look for the link) that said Dana White has declared that McGregor's FW belt will have to be vacated or he'll be forced to do so if he wins the LW championship.  If this is true what would this mean for Aldo?  Will he become FW champ automatically?  That would create a more interesting scenario for the feather weight division because McGregor will surely come after him.

And Aldo saying "not even McGregor would bring him back" is BS.  Of course it will bring him back.  McGregor is the money fight, everyone would love to take a shot at him.  Keep in mind that most of these fighters are always close to being broke except for McGregor and recently Nate Diaz.  I'm sure there's a few others.

Edit:  Here's the link to the said article:  http://www.bjpenn.com/mma-news/conor-mcgregor/conor-mcgregor-surrender-one-belt-wins-ufc-205/

Aldo always said he is not a money whore and he is not aiming for the match for the money,his legacy in the sport is questioned and the manner in which Mcgregor defeated Aldo is really humiliating that he wanted revenge ,Aldo thinks he fell into Mcgregor's trap with all the media tour and stuff and made a mockery in the fight.if he was looking for money he would have fought at UFC 205 since it is going to be a huge event and pay day will be huge too,he rejected the match altogether

What do you mean he rejected the match?  What match?  A match vs McGregor?  I don't think McGregor offered him a rematch for UFC 205.  He wanted to go after Alvarez at light weight because there's more money to be made in it.  The way things are rolling for him now, he'll go for the big money rather than fight Aldo for peanuts.  That's when Aldo got butthurt because it's becoming clear now that he's slowly becoming irrelevant in the UFC.  There was a time that no fighter and the UFC itself would not reject what he wanted.  But that era is gone now.

yeah caz i agree I love the street fights (as a style) I appreciate the skill it takes
to get someone in a random arm bar etc. I just hate fights when they are in the
mount the whole time. Its much for fun to watch fights on their feet that go to the
ground here and there then back up.

McGregor is the man, my absolute favorite fighter. I think he will destroy Alvarez, expect fireworks from Conor here.

Yeah, McGregor will ring him like a bell for sure.  And Alvarez knows this so I wonder what strategy he'll be using in this fight.  If he's thinking of backing out vs Connor then he's just playing into Connor's strategy which is to press and bully fighters to the fence.  I can see this fight going under 2.5 rounds and Connor winning via TKO/KO.

@Rubberduckie. Yes. It was very fun to watch. What was Alvarez doing? He was trying to steal the spot light from Connor and it ended up making him look foolish. So did the unknown fighter from the panel at the last row. They are all lucky to be in a card headed by Connor in the main event. Without him there would be no millions in PPV money and ticket sales raining on them.

to bad Rousey couldn't be there fighting also since it's big for UFC in New York. Dana
for sure pushed up McGregor knowing they needed a star like him big time for the
Nyc debut.

Rousey could have being their in Newyork if she was ready to roll,she is taking her time off from the sport after the defeat and she deserve the break as she was an very active fighter while she was the champion. At the moment ufc has just one mega start in connor Mcgregor and they are making full use of it,since in my mind UFC200 was a flop show after  the jon jones fall out,they have to make this event a success,the last thing to happen is injury fallouts,other than that this is an awesome line up of fights.

@eaLiTy. Aldo feels that he was not treated well by the UFC. He is in the beginning of the twilight of his career so he must now make enough money and then retire. A fight versus Connor would be one of the fights that will bring him a big pay day and it will also give him a chance to redeem himself from that humiliating loss.

Jose Aldo is dead serious with his stand that he is retiring from the sport and he even claimed that he is not a whore  Grin,on the other hand Max Holloway wants Jose Aldo at ufc 205 ,what ever it is i respect the way Jose Aldo fought throughout his career,undefeated for a very long time and he was the only champ in the UFC before connor knocking him out,so he got back,fought the best and regained him claim to fight for the title again and connor is skipping him for a long time now.

if you love trash talk google the press conference today. McGregor has an
epic rant. It's so good basically telling him he's lucky he gets to be the next
guy he beats up lol. Also says how the Irish are coming back to New York.
I love Comac.

Yeah. My bet goes to McGregor, But alvarez is a good fighter too. They are both my favorite but i want McGregor too to win for double belt. i think this match will end on a knock out. I can't wait for the match!

feel really bad for Jose Aldo and khabib nurmagomedov, khabib is the rightful title contender for  Alvarez
and jose Aldo is the rightful opponent for mcgregor,Alvarez iis not a easy fight but this is the best chance for Mcgregor to win two belts,if he has to face the top Lightweight in the division he would never ever get a chance to face the champion


It only shows that Connor is in control of his own fate in the UFC. He is the organization's golden goose right now so it will be hard to reject his proposals because he brings in the money. As a fan I would love to see him win and hold 2 championship belts in the UFC. This feat has not been done before.

I agree that it will not be an easy fight for Connor but it will be easier than the fight versus Nate.

Aldo just asked for his release from the UFC as he is upset with the situation,he was promised many things,but Dana did not fulfill any of the promises,Aldo is so pissed that he said he will retire from the sport if the UFC is not releasing him from his contract,Aldo wanted to face Antony pettis when he was a champ long time ago as aldo did not have any worthy contenders as he was demolishing his opponents and the ufc did not allow him to fight pettis and he is questioning the double standards when it comes to Mcgregor.

I'm expecting McGregor to win this fight but not in a knock out fashion like Aldo. This will go to the distance and McGregor will be on top every round. Alvarez is good with his defense but not good enough for the power and quickness of McGregor. McGregor knocking out Alvarez is 70-80% chance to happen but again i'm expecting this to go to the distance.

You're wrong.  It's like you're already so sure that the fight will go the distance without weighing in the probabilities and basing them with the fighter's records.  McGregor is not known to go the distance in his fights and Alvarez went to the distance only twice in his career and lost one of them.

Here's the video of the press conference for 205.

Yes It may look or sound like i'm Nostradamus there but look at the last Diaz and McGregor fight, it went to the distance and it looks to me that Diaz was able to study McGregor from their first encounter, now with Alvarez he may have studied McGregor as well and dodge those power punches to be thrown by McGregor. I maybe wrong there but I'm just sharing my thoughts on how this fight may end up in my pov.
