UFC: Jose Aldo’s journey to bantamweight

In a recent tweet by sports commentator Ana Hissa, fans got a glimpse of Jose Aldo in a new shape. Aldo looks all shredded in the picture with a big smile on his face. It seems that Jose has finally made his way to the division and he might aim to become a two-division champ in UFC. Have a look at Jose Aldo in a new shape.

Jose Aldo is one of the best martial artists on the planet. He has defeated veterans like Cub Swanson, Frankie Edgar and Urijah Faber in his 10 years-long undefeated reign before losing the title to Conor McGregor. His back to back losses against current featherweight champion Max Holloway hampered his image a bit but he came back to the win column by defeating Jeremy Stephens and Renato Moicano. However, he lost for the fourth time in his UFC career at his last bought against Alexander Volkanovski.

Henry Cejudo ‘The Triple C’ is currently reigning the bantamweight division and is stacked with some of the best talents. Cejudo has defeated legends like Demetrious Jhonson and TJ Dillashaw and Aldo is likely to attract him. However, an immediate title shot at a new division might not be done by Dana White. We can also expect Marlon Moraes or Pedro Munhoz to welcome Jose Aldo in the bantamweight division.
