“He caught me with some clean shots that I didn't see and it was hard to see them with my eye all swollen. But the guy is a legend, he's tough. I feel like I can beat him, but it just wasn't my night. I take my hat off to him,” said Font.
After seeing his four-fight winning streak interrupted, the bantamweight promised to learn lessons from the defeat and return to the Octagon even better.
"I'll be right back. I know this will make me better. I just did five rounds with one of the legends of the sport and I'm going to get more out of this fight, for sure”, concluded Rob.
Even though he was defeated by Aldo, Font is still considered one of the best fighters in the bantamweight division. Number four in the category, Rob has suffered just one defeat in his last five fights. The fighter has a record of 19 victories and five defeats.
