Aldo Wants Pettis At Lightweight

BJPENN.COM News - October 9, 2013

“Many people talked about moving up (to 155 pounds), and I’ve asked for that. But Andre (Pederneiras, his coach) and Dana (White) said it wasn’t the right moment. Moving up to lightweight is closer and closer. When they think it’s time to move up, I’ll do it no problem.” “I never chose opponents, but I can say one name now, and it’s Pettis, for all the talk that has happened. He would be the right person for me to fight today. It would be even better to fight him at lightweight so I wouldn’t need to cut weight (laughs).”

Michael Bisping Not A Good Used Car Salesman

BJPENN.COM News - October 8, 2013

“I heard that he was having these problems with his eye. And I care about Michael Bisping, a lot. I called him up, and I could just tell by the conversation that he was trying to fast-talk me. I felt like I was talking to a used car salesman, basically telling me that he could fight, that his doctor said he could fight. And I was like, ‘Stop, stop; my doctor is going to talk to your doctor and I’m pretty sure you’re not gonna fight.’ He was flipping out that he wanted this fight so bad. He wanted to fight in Manchester, but no way.” UFC President Dana White recently went over the loss of Michael Bisping in the UFC Manchester main event.

BJPENN.COM News - October 8, 2013

“People can say that I won the fight or that I didn’t win the fight, that I won the scorecards or anything. It’s all up to the judges. I didn’t do enough to win the fight and that’s enough for me. That’s enough for me, I don’t need to know anymore. It will just make me feel worse knowing anything else. But, I learned a lot from this fight, it’s just going to make me stronger. Jon Jones can fight whoever he wants and take on whoever, but I will be around him all the time and I will be ready for another fight with him.” “He can say whatever he wants, but, I’m not done. I’m not happy with the way everything ended and I want that belt. That’s my big goal. I will have my rematch and I will get that belt one day and he knows it, too. So, I can’t wait.”
