Last Saturday (4), José Aldo impressed the MMA community by beating Rob font in the unanimous decision of the judges, in a valid fight for the UFC Las Vegas 44. And, in addition to coming close to a fight for the bantamweight title (up to 61,2kg), the Brazilian caught the attention of the former champion Henry Cejudo, who hinted that he might give up retirement to face him.

In the publication, 'Triplo C' recalled that he was scheduled to face Aldo on May 9th, at Ginásio Ibirapuera, in São Paulo. The fight for the bantamweight title, however, never got off the ground. Cejudo was later marked against Dominick Cruz and, after winning it, he announced his retirement from the sport.

In recent months, Henry has made public his desire to try something new within Ultimate. The athlete even challenged Alexander Volkanovsky, in search of the third title in different divisions in the organization. He's still honed his wrestling game Jon Jones, Deiveson Figueiredo e Weili Zhang, but may return to mixed martial arts soon.

MMA legend, José Aldo began its journey in the category led by aljamain sterling with two defeats – against Marlon moraes e Petr yan. The 'People's Champion', however, managed to turn things around and recorded good victories against Marlon Vera, Peter Munhoz and now, Rob font.
