HETAST JUST NU
“I was very surprised; Conor McGregor is a very strange guy, he’s doing well, and he’s a really good fighter,” berättade Dos Santos för MMAjunkie. “The way it happened happened – Jose Aldo, I’m a big fan of him. I know him very well, and when I saw him train, man, that guy is amazing. McGregor is very confident in that fight, and he landed the perfect punch right on the chin. That was good for him. Look at that fight. We were expecting a fight, but we didn’t see a fight.”
Dos Santos tycker att Aldo förtjänar en rematch mer än vad Ronda Rousey (12-1) och Cain Velasquez (13-2) gör för att fansen inte fick se en riktig match mellan Aldo och McGregor.
“In my opinion, we are having a lot of rematches right now: Cain Velasquez and Fabricio Werdum, Ronda Rousey and Holly (Holm),” sa Dos Santos. “I think the rematch between these guys (McGregor and Aldo) makes more sense than all of the other ones because we didn’t see a fight. I was surprised by the fight.”
Dos Santos tror att Aldo förlusten har gjort Aldo mer hungrig och därför tror Dos Santos att Aldo kommer att komma tillbaka bättre.
“Nobody wants to lose in this sport because it’s a very bad thing; I’m sure Jose Aldo is very sad right now because he lost, but he was holding that title for such a long time that it’s a good thing that happened,” sa Dos Santos. “It’s going to give him more. It’s going to drive him to come back better, and he will be better without all that pressure. He will come back to the top, and I have no doubt. He’s one of the best of all time, and in my opinion, it’s not going to take too much to come back to the top of this division. I hope the UFC makes this rematch because I want to see a fight.”
Dos Santos kommer ta sig an Alistair Overeem (39-14) på UFC on FOX 17.
