“It's going to be as quick as possible, because that way no one suffers, including me, and we can quickly go home, eat and celebrate (laughs). We're going to suffer a lot less this time... Everyone always asks if I'm going to feel like hitting him more or not. Man, that doesn't matter to me. The important thing for me is to continue being the champion. I don't fall into a heap, whether it's or isn't, to hit or not to hit, I try to focus on my work, focus on being the champion. For me it doesn't matter if I'm going to get in there and finish quickly, if I'm going to punch him and he's going to fall... for me the important thing is that I come out victorious, it doesn't matter what I'm going to get there and do", said the champion, in a chat with fans published on the “Combate” channel website.

Furthermore, Aldo assured that he is completely recovered from the broken rib that removed him from Ultimate's first attempt at promoting combat. “I was a little sad, talking a little about the past. I was supposed to end this whole thing (with McGregor) and, during training, I broke my rib, but thank God the rib is fine, it's great and the training is starting. We still have four months, so we're starting slowly. When there are about nine weeks left, we will intensify and go deeper into the fight. For now, you can rest assured, I am slowly returning to training, making all the necessary adaptations and, in the future, I will be able to speak better”, he assured.
