When the UFC and WEC merged, featherweight champion Jose Aldo was named the new “UFC featherweight champion of the world.” He defends his title at UFC 125 against top contender Josh Grispi and will be looking to make a statement to the world. Aldo is getting the exposure and publicity that he finally deserves, and I cannot wait to see him take the UFC by storm. Below is a picture of our new UFC featherweight champion with his belt. Welcome to the UFC, Jose.
