Jose Aldo efter mötet med UFC: Vi kommer nog gå skilda vägar

Jose Aldo har under en längre tid varit riktigt missnöjd med UFC, och sist fick han nog efter det att fjäderviktsmästaren Conor McGregor tilldelades ytterligare en matchning utanför viktklassen. Aldo gick till och med så långt att han ville få sitt kontrakt rivet med organisationen, och under gårdagen hade han ett möte med bland andra Dana White.

Här kan ni läsa vad Jose hade att säga om mötet via ”MMAJunkie”, och det är inte mycket som har förändrats:

It was a great conversation. I can only thank the UFC for all they’ve done for me and Dana for the patience. I always had my mind made up. When I said something, it was never a bluff. I have an idea in my head and it’s what I always wanted. So … it’s what we talked about. There was no offer, nothing to think. I just gave my point of view. The esteem that I have for them and that they have for me is cool, but I think we need to go our own ways.

I didn’t come only for the contract cancellation. We had a lot to say, and that’s what happened. I think I’m going my way, and the UFC is going theirs, and the future will tell. We had a first conversation – it was very good. That’s why I thank Dana and Sean. We had this great conversation. The UFC is going through a transition phase, with new owners, new methodologies, new ideas, so for a first conversation it was very good.

If there wasn’t a contract or anything holding me back, I don’t think (I would fight again). I don’t see myself fighting anymore. I think I’ve done a lot for the sport and I need to go my way. But, since I have a contract with the UFC, I think I need to respect that. I respect everyone, but we came here to have a conversation with them and I think the conversation was great.

Aldo tog sig senast an Frankie Edgar under UFC 200, en match som han tog hem via ett enhälligt domslut. Vad som står på tur för Jose återstår därmed att se.
