A real turnaround can be seen in the bantamweight division (up to 61,2kg.). Even debuting in the new division with a defeat, José Aldo left a good impression in the octagon after the duel against Marlon moraes No. UFC 245, held this Saturday (14), in Las Vegas (USA).

Despite the official result, which marked a split decision victory for Marlon, the president of Ultimate, Dana White, stated that he does not agree with the judges and hopes to give the 'People's Champion' the chance to challenge Henry Cejudo, by the category title.

“I gave Aldo the victory in that fight,” said the president. The 'boss' went further and admitted to having received a message from the division champion, Henry Cejudo, who also expressed his opposition to the scoring of the judges' points and insisted on the 'marriage' of a clash between him and the former featherweight number one, something that had already been done a few months ago.

“He (Henry) said, 'That's bullshit. I want this fight and I will treat him as he deserves”, said Dana, leaving open the possibility of making the manauara the next challenger for the bantamweight belt.

Asked what he thinks about the possibility of a confrontation between the Brazilian and the North American, White did not hesitate. “I don’t hate the idea,” he concluded.
