Jose Aldo might have had one of the biggest beef of his life with Conor McGregor. But he must have melted when the former UFC double champion praised the Brazilian for his commendable achievement. While Aldo was claimed to be the greatest featherweight fighter of all time by the UFC president, Dana White, his induction into the UFC Hall of Fame was simply a matter of time. The fighter finally got inducted into the Hall of Fame, which was announced during UFC 283. However, it seemed like a chance for the ‘Mystic Man’ to kindle a spark of sportsmanship with his former opponent. The ‘Notorious’ took to Twitter and gave a deserving remark to the featherweight fighter. Without a doubt, the fans of mixed martial arts took over the comments and had a lot to say about McGregor’s tweet.

Although many of the fans have wished for Aldo to have a rematch with McGregor and settle the score, the fighter has subtly denied fighting his former opponent again. However, he didn’t back off from providing a few names who could take on the Irish warrior.

While the fighter was also praised by the public, many were stupefied by the Dubliner’ gesture. Without a doubt, the fans were quick to point the surprise in the comments. However, most of the fans shared the Irish fighter’s feelings and congratulated the Brazilian on his newest achievement. Furthermore, many of the fans wished McGregor the best and hoped to see the Dubliner entering the Hall of Fame as well.

Jose Aldo won’t fight Conor McGregor

Previously, Aldo made his intentions clear that he won’t be fighting McGregor again. He reasoned that his former opponent has entered a completely different category, now.

‘Scarface’ pointed out that Charles Oliveira and Alex Pereira could fight McGregor when he returned to the Octagon. He said, “He [Oliveira] got all that momentum, right? I think my time has passed so like I said ..both Poatan, he is huge and stuff USADA ain’t knocking at his door. He is big, 185 lbs, and Charles with 155 lbs. Up to 170 lbs. I think Charles can take him on.”
