Comment: It’s unlikely the Cejduo-Aldo fight takes place as currently constructed in Brazil. The UFC is reportedly looking into other locations considering the ongoing pandemic. Yes, Aldo is 0-2 in his last two fights. He is winless as a bantamweight. However, he held the WEC/UFC featherweight title between 2009 and 2014. So, in 2020, he’s gifted a title fight under the perception that he’s the biggest name for Cejudo.
