After great moments, José Aldo decided to hang up his gloves and it didn’t take long to receive the affection of many fighters and important characters
Last weekend, the fighter Jose Aldo made the complicated decision to hang up the gloves and say goodbye to the UFC. After being champion of the organization of the world of fights, the Brazilian thought a lot about the moment of retirement and entered into an agreement with the entity to break the contract and enjoy the phase of ex-athlete with his family.

“The King of Rio closed a chapter of his career. Congratulations on the trajectory and thanks for the moments“, wrote the official UFC profile on social media. “Jose Aldo!!! Stronger than the world. His story made me believe that it would be possible to be a champion !!! Thank you for everything friend“, also published Deiveson Figueiredo on your page.
Jose Aldo you already have all the details of your career very well defined! At 36 years old, one of the greatest fighters of all time, considered by many to be the greatest featherweight in MMA history, would have much more ground ahead of him, but the time to retire his gloves came for the champion, who had already defined how this will happen.
In an exclusive interview with the website “Combate”, the fighter revealed that he had the objective of fulfilling the prediction that was made by him to his coach, Dede Pederneirasa few years ago, that he would only retire from the fighting world when he reached the age of 35 and had managed to win at least two UFC belts.
For José Aldo, the way he hung up his gloves made him dedicate himself even more to training and sought to train and prepare in modalities that he was not used to doing before, such as boxing, for example. The former featherweight champion said that the maximum dedication was for the sole objective of being champion before retiring.
