the retirement of José Aldo may come to an end shortly after it begins. The Brazilian, who decided to hang up his gloves after not having a rematch against Conor McGregor, seems to have changed his mind.

Last Thursday (20) Aldo met with UFC president Dana White after the meeting celebrated the agreement that he would no longer fight in the octagon. However, in the early hours of Saturday (22), the interim featherweight champion posted on his Twitter account that he was considering competing again.

“Rethinking about retiring from MMA, I talked to my family and seeing the requests from my Fans, good things will come for you…”, wrote Aldo on the microblogging network.

At 30 years old, Aldo is the greatest champion in the history of the featherweight division. After being surprisingly knocked out for Conor McGregor, in November last year, he hit Frankie Edgar at UFC 200, a fight in which he won the interim belt in the 66 kg division.

With triumph. Aldo hoped to have a rematch against McGregor for title unification. However, the UFC promoted the Irishman's fight against Eddie Alvarez, for the lightweight belt, in November, in his Ultimate debut in New York.
