McGregor on Aldo: He is naturally a lighter man now

Conor McGregor defended Jose Aldo on his decision to drop to bantamweight. When ESPN reporter Ariel Helwani commented on Aldo’s appearance on Twitter, McGregor voiced support of his former rival’s decision to cut 10 more pounds.

“I disagree here,” McGregor said. “Aldo looks more than on top of it in my experienced opinion. Well trimmed in advance, and naturally a lighter man now. This can only be done over a long length of time and with complete dedication. Respect! I wish him well and am excited to see him in this division.”

Aldo (28-5 MMA, 10-4 UFC) returns to action at UFC 245.

He will fight with UFC bantamweight title challenger Marlon Moraes (22-6-1 MMA, 4-2 UFC). UFC 245 takes place December 15 in Las Vegas.

One month after Aldo fights, McGregor is scheduled to fight for the first time since October 2018. He’ll take on Donald Cerrone in a five-round welterweight main event at UFC 246, which takes place Jan. 18 in Las Vegas.
