奥尔多确认UFC301是合同上的最后一战
文章源自武享吧-https://hula8.net/ityx/71419.htmlUFC301的最大看点或许不是作为头条主赛的蝇量级冠军战,而是UFC名人堂成员、2次前UFC羽量级冠军何塞-奥尔多(Jose Aldo)的复出战。几周前,当奥尔多与乔纳森-马丁内兹(Jonathan Martinez)的比赛正式宣布的时候,所有人都颇感意外。文章源自武享吧-https://hula8.net/ityx/71419.html
今年37岁的奥尔多在2020年8月一致判定输给梅拉布-德瓦利什维利(Merab Dvalishvili)后当场宣布退役,之后他转战拳台,进行了两场职业拳击比赛,取得了1胜1负的战绩。奥尔多曾在采访中表示,就体力消耗而言,他感觉拳击训练要比MMA容易得多,但他决定回归八角笼也另有原因,其中之一就是他对于MMA再次燃起了激情。文章源自武享吧-https://hula8.net/ityx/71419.html
“决定退役只是因为我觉得自己的思想和身体都需要休息一下。”奥尔多说道。“在过去的20年MMA生涯中,我都对自己有很高的要求,而现在我找到了另一项可以专注的运动,这就是拳击。我做了一段时间,这让我能够从所有的压力中恢复过来。”文章源自武享吧-https://hula8.net/ityx/71419.html
“要想成为冠军,每一场比赛都很重要,我对自己的要求更是如此。现在我觉得我能达到心中的标准了,所以我回来了。”
奥尔多决定复出的另一个原因是他与UFC之间还有一些没有完成的事情。他确认,自己在UFC301中与马丁内兹的比赛是他与UFC合同上的最后一战。
这一战之后,无论输赢,奥尔多希望看看接下来有哪些机会摆在眼前,然后再对下一步做出决定。去年,曾有传闻称他将与佛洛依德-梅威瑟(Floyd Mayweather)进行一场拳击比赛,尽管这最终未能实现,但奥尔多认为拳台之上仍有一些重大的机遇在等待着自己。
“几个月前我对UFC说,我想要这场比赛,想通过它看看我现在的位置和状态,然后再决定下一步。我寻求在今年晚些时候进行一场重大的拳击比赛,但在与马丁内兹的这一战结束后,我们会和UFC一起来谈谈未来的计划。”
“与佛洛依德-梅威瑟的那场比赛其实基本已经谈妥了,我的经纪人阿里-阿卜杜拉齐兹(Ali Abdelaziz)是负责谈判的人,我真的不知道这其中发生了什么,但最终我们在沙特的比赛没能实现。我知道今年晚些时候Netflix将举办一场大型赛事,头条将是杰克-保罗(Jake Paul) VS 迈克-泰森(Mike Tyson),希望我也能参加那场赛事。但一切都要等等看,这里有很多的机会摆在眼前。”
当然,奥尔多也并不排除与UFC签订一份新合同并冲击雏量级冠军头衔,但这要看自己本周末在与马丁内兹交手时的表现。奥尔多相信自己依然有能力成为UFC冠军,但如果自己在UFC301中输给了马丁内兹的话,这也并不是什么大不了的事情。
奥尔多还确认了另一件事情,自己在UFC301原本的对手是前WEC和UFC雏量级冠军多米尼克-科鲁兹(Dominick Cruz),这是一场被拳迷们期盼了多年的梦幻之战,但从未有机会实现。尽管这场比赛再次搁浅,但奥尔多表示马丁内兹同样是一个很难对付的家伙,对手在多家格斗媒体上都有很不错的排名,因此自己对于MMA的热情并没有因为对手不那么知名而有所动摇。
奥尔多承认,出战马丁内兹对于自己来说是一个很大的风险,这将挑战他多年来所积累的荣誉和遗产。但他也表示,自己把每一场比赛都当做是职业生涯中最大的挑战来对待,这是他永远不会忽视的一点。
“显然,对阵马丁内斯对我来说并不是个好的选择。如果对手是多尼米克,这是所有拳迷和媒体一直以来所期待的对决,我和多米尼克之间有很深的历史渊源。但马丁内兹很难对付,我对每一场比赛的态度都是我在挑战世界上最优秀的对手,在迎接最艰巨的挑战,这一点不会改变。”
José Aldo
英文简介
José Aldo da Silva Oliveira Júnior (Portuguese pronunciation: [ʒoˈzɛ ˈawdu]; born 9 September 1986), known as José Aldo, is a Brazilian professional mixed martial artist and professional boxer who currently competes in the Bantamweight division of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) after previously competing at Featherweight, and was the fourth and final WEC Featherweight Champion. He became the first UFC Featherweight Champion following the UFC/WEC merger.Aldo is often regarded as one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all-time, and is considered to be the greatest featherweight of all time after defending his UFC title seven times and his WEC title twice.
After his first MMA defeat in November 2005, Aldo remained undefeated for over a decade, winning 18 straight fights until UFC 194 in December 2015, when he lost to Conor McGregor. He was named Sherdog's 2009 Fighter of the Year. In Sherdog's April 2017 pound-for-pound ranking, Aldo was called "the greatest featherweight in mixed martial arts history."
Background
José Aldo was born on 9 September 1986, in Manaus, Brazil. As an infant, he was dropped onto a barbecue, leaving a permanent scar on the left side of his face. Throughout his teen years, he was keen on football and wanted to become a professional. His aspirations were supported by his father. But Aldo grew tired of getting beaten up in fights on the street, thus starting to train capoeira to learn ways to defend himself better in brawls. Aldo used to train capoeira on the streets after the classes, once gaining attention of a Brazilian jiu-jitsu trainer. He invited Aldo to try one session of jiu-jitsu and after the session, Aldo decided to leave capoeira to start training jiu-jitsu. At the age of 17, Aldo moved from Manaus to Rio de Janeiro having only his clothes with him and determination to train mixed martial arts there until he achieved something in the sport. He is a teammate and training partner of former UFC Bantamweight champion Renan Barão at Nova União.
Mixed martial arts career
Early career
Known by the nickname "Junior", José Aldo da Silva Oliveira Júnior fought his very first professional MMA fight at the age of 17 at EcoFight 1 on 10 August 2004. He fought fellow countryman and newcomer Mário Bigola, whom he defeated by knockout in just 16 seconds into the first round. It would be Bigola's first and only professional fight.
Aldo fought fellow Brazilian Hudson Rocha, in his second fight for Shooto Brazil. The fight was ended by a doctor stoppage at the end of the first round due to a cut over Rocha's left eye, which was caused by a flying knee thrown by Aldo followed by a barrage of punches. Rocha was able to get back to his feet only to be met with more strikes and a knee before Aldo kicked his legs out from under him.
Five months later he fought MMA newcomer Luiz de Paula at Shooto – Brazil 7. Aldo took de Paula down in the clinch early on in the fight. He quickly gained mount, where he rained down punches before transitioning to an arm-triangle choke, forcing de Paula to tap at 1:54 of the first round.
Aldo spent the next several years jumping from organization to organization. He next fought Vale Tudo and Shooto veteran Aritano Silva Barbosa, who had lost four of his last five fights, at Rio MMA Challenge 1 on 12 May 2005. Aldo landed two knees to the chin of Barbosa in the opening seconds of the fight, sending him to the canvas where Aldo swarmed with punches. Barbosa attempted a single-leg takedown, but Aldo pulled away and threw two soccer kicks to the prone Barbosa before the referee stopped the fight at twenty seconds of the first round, awarding Aldo the victory via knockout. Less than two months later Aldo fought newcomer Anderson Silvério at Meca World Vale Tudo 12. He also defeated Silvério with soccer kicks, 8:33 into the first round.
Aldo then traveled to England, where he fought Micky Young at FX3- Battle of Britain on 15 October 2005. He defeated Young just 1:05 into the first round by TKO (punches).
Loss to Azevedo
Only a month later, in November 2005, Aldo went up a weight class to lightweight and fought respected Luta Livre black belt Luciano Azevedo at Jungle Fight 5. Aldo won the first round, winning most of the exchanges with solid combinations and leg kicks and stuffing Azevedo's numerous takedown attempts (he was nearly taken down early in the round, but appeared to purposefully fall out of the ropes to force a restart from the referee), as well as landing a solid knee as Azevedo went for a takedown. Aldo shrugged off Azevedo's first few takedown attempts in the second but was eventually taken down against the ropes by a double leg. Aldo raised his hips up looking for triangles and other submissions, but Azevedo easily defended.
Azevedo soon passed to half-guard and side control. He then transitioned to full mount. Aldo quickly gave up his back and rolled into the ropes. The referee restarted the fight in the center of the ring, where Azevedo locked his legs around Aldo in a body triangle. Aldo controlled Azevedo's hands for several seconds before falling back into the corner of the ring, where Azevedo was able to secure the fight-ending rear-naked choke 3:37 into round two. The loss was Aldo's first as a professional.
Rebound
Aldo rebounded in his next fight, returning to featherweight against the then-undefeated Thiago "Minu" Meller at Gold Fighters Championship I on 20 May 2006, winning a unanimous decision in a very close fight. Round one could have gone either way, with Aldo getting two takedowns (both times getting into half-guard) and cutting Meller's right eyebrow with a left hand. Meller went for two armbars, nearly hyper-extending Aldo's right arm in the first attempt before Aldo was able to escape. Aldo won a lackluster round two, again taking Meller down and landing some hammer fists. A seemingly exhausted Aldo stalled against the ropes much of the third round, holding Meller in the clinch. Both landed some solid strikes in the few exchanges there were in the round.
Pancrase
In his last bout before joining the WEC, Aldo fought Pancrase veteran Shoji Maruyama in the Pancrase 2007 Neo-Blood Tournament Finals. Aldo won a unanimous decision, dominating Maruyama standing and on the ground. In the first exchange, Aldo landed a front kick to Maruyama's body, sending him to the canvas. He was able to land the cleaner shots in exchanges, where he connected with leg kicks and knees while in the clinch. He took Maruyama down almost at will with trips and body-locks; whereas Maruyama failed in all his attempts to get Aldo to the mat. On the ground, Aldo was able to get side control as well as top and back mount.
World Extreme Cagefighting
Aldo made his debut for mixed martial arts promoter World Extreme Cagefighting on 1 June 2008, at the Arco Arena in Sacramento, California. In his debut with the organization he defeated renowned fighter Alexandre Franca Nogueira at WEC 34. Aldo won his fight on 7 June 2009, at WEC 41 against Cub Swanson via double flying knee eight seconds into the first round.
Aldo won the WEC Featherweight Championship against Mike Brown on November 18, 2009 at WEC 44.[28] He won by TKO in the second round. He was able to get Brown in the back mount, where he landed a barrage of punches, ending the fight at 1:20 of the round. José Aldo was the recipient of Fighter of the Year accolades for 2009 from both MMA Live and Sherdog.com.
Aldo faced former titleholder Urijah Faber on 24 April 2010, at WEC 48. Aldo defeated Faber via unanimous decision (49–45, 49–45, and 50–45).[30] Aldo was able to use effective leg and body kicks (a total of thirty-two[31]) to stifle Faber, sending him to the canvas several times with solid kicks. For the remaining 1:40 of the fourth round, Aldo trapped Faber in the crucifix, peppering him with punches and elbows. Aldo did not engage most of the fifth (although he did land a body shot that nearly crumpled Faber). This was Aldo's first decision win in his WEC career.
Aldo defended his title against Manny Gamburyan by KO at 1:32 of the second round on 30 September 2010 at WEC 51.
Aldo and his camp have often mentioned his desire to eventually make the move up in weight to the lightweight division (155-pound limit). Having rolled through all of his opposition in the WEC featherweight class, the UFC offered Aldo a fight against Kenny Florian, who has challenged for the UFC lightweight title. Aldo and his camp declined the fight, instead deciding to remain at featherweight for the time being to defend his WEC belt.
Ultimate Fighting Championship
On 28 October 2010, World Extreme Cagefighting merged with the Ultimate Fighting Championship. As part of the merger, all WEC fighters were transferred to the UFC.Aldo became the inaugural UFC Featherweight Champion, receiving the first ever UFC featherweight title belt on Saturday, 20 November 2010 at UFC 123.[37] His first defense was set to take place at UFC 125 against Josh Grispi. Aldo was forced to withdraw from UFC 125 after suffering a neck injury.
UFC Featherweight Champion
Aldo made his first title defense against Mark Hominick on 30 April 2011, at UFC 129 by defeating the Canadian by a unanimous decision in a bout that earned Fight of the Night honors.
Aldo had his second title defense against Kenny Florian on 8 October 2011, at UFC 136, where he won by unanimous decision.
Aldo next faced Chad Mendes on 14 January 2012, at UFC 142, Aldo won via KO in the final second of the first round. His post-fight celebration, where he sprinted out of the cage and into the crowd at the HSBC Arena in Rio, is regarded as one of his most iconic moments as champion.
After a series of injuries and opponent change-ups, Aldo faced former UFC Lightweight Champion Frankie Edgar at UFC 156. Aldo retained his belt via unanimous decision (49–46, 49–46, and 48–47).The performance earned both participants Fight of the Night honors. This performance resulted in Aldo setting the record for most championship bouts, including his original title plus three defences.
Aldo was expected to face Anthony Pettis on 3 August 2013, at UFC 163. However, in mid-June Pettis pulled out of the bout citing a knee injury and was replaced by Chan Sung Jung. Aldo defeated Jung via fourth-round TKO, finishing Jung with a flurry of strikes after Jung suffered a dislocated shoulder while throwing an overhand right.
On 1 February 2014, at UFC 169 Aldo defended his title by defeating Ricardo Lamas by unanimous decision (49–46, 49–46, and 49–46).
Aldo again was in talks to fight Pettis after defending his title against Lamas. At the post-fight press conference, Aldo expressed interest to move up and fight Pettis at 155 lbs. However, those plans were quickly refuted as Pettis was selected to serve as a coach on The Ultimate Fighter 20.
A rematch with Chad Mendes was expected to take place on 2 August 2014, in the event headliner at UFC 176.[55] However, in early July, Aldo pulled out of the bout with an injury.[56] The rematch with Mendes was subsequently rescheduled and took place for 25 October 2014 at UFC 179.[57] Despite getting dropped in the first round and being rocked in the third, Aldo scored two knockdowns of his own, one in the first and the other in the third and also rocked Mendes throughout the fight, winning four of the five rounds in the eyes of the judges thus taking the fight by unanimous decision (49–46, 49–46, and 49–46). The win also earned him his third Fight of the Night bonus award,and was selected Fight of the Year by multiple MMA outlets.
Losing the belt and further title fights
Aldo was scheduled to face Conor McGregor on 11 July 2015, at UFC 189.[59] On 30 June, Aldo pulled out of the fight, citing a rib injury which makes him unable to fight.[60][61][62][63] Chad Mendes took his place and was defeated by McGregor for an interim title. Aldo faced McGregor in a title unification match on 12 December 2015, at UFC 194.[64] He lost the fight via knockout 13 seconds into the first round, resulting in his first defeat in over ten years and his first ever loss at featherweight, ending a 15 fight win streak in the division.
Aldo faced Frankie Edgar in a rematch on 9 July 2016, at UFC 200 for the interim UFC Featherweight Championship.[66] Aldo won the fight by unanimous decision (49–46, 49–46, and 48–47). On 26 November 2016, reigning UFC Featherweight Champion Conor McGregor was stripped of the title after winning the UFC Lightweight Championship, having never defended the Featherweight belt since he won it in December 2015. As a result, Aldo was promoted to Featherweight Champion.
Aldo faced interim featherweight champion Max Holloway in a title unification bout on 3 June 2017, in the main event at UFC 212.[69] After winning the first two rounds on all three judges scorecards, he lost the fight by TKO in the third round.[70] Despite the loss, the fight earned Aldo his fourth Fight of the Night bonus award. This was Aldo's 3rd loss in his 29 fight career.
Aldo was scheduled to face Ricardo Lamas on 16 December 2017, at UFC on Fox: Lawler vs. dos Anjos.[72] However, Aldo was pulled from the bout in favour of a rematch with Holloway two weeks earlier at UFC 218, replacing an injured Frankie Edgar.[73] Similarly to the first fight, Aldo found success in the opening rounds before slowing down and losing the fight via TKO in the third round.
Aldo faced Jeremy Stephens at UFC on Fox 30 on 28 July 2018. The fight was Aldo's first non-title (three round) fight in over nine years.[75] Aldo won the fight by TKO after a left hook to the body dropped Stephens, and the fight was stopped due to subsequent strikes from Aldo.[76] This win earned him the Performance of the Night award.
Aldo faced Renato Moicano on 2 February 2019 in the co-main event at UFC Fight Night 144.[78] He won the fight via TKO in the second round.[79] This win earned him the Performance of the Night award.[80]
Aldo faced Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 237 on 11 May 2019, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[81] Aldo lost the fight via unanimous decision.
On 24 June 2019, it was announced that Aldo had signed a new exclusive eight-fight contract with the UFC prior to his bout with Volkanovski. This marked a major deviation from Aldo's previous firm stance on retiring by the end of 2019, in which he stated "I had already planned to stop when I was 30 years old and begin something else. I'm at a point where I have to make a decision, and nothing is going to change my mind. Martial arts is always going to be a part of my life, but everything has a beginning, a middle, and an end. And I see this coming to an end."
Move to Bantamweight
On 23 October 2019, it was announced that Aldo would be moving down to the Bantamweight division. He faced Marlon Moraes at UFC 245 on 14 December 2019.[2] He lost the largely contested bout via split decision.
Aldo was expected to face UFC Bantamweight Champion Henry Cejudo on 9 May 2020 at then UFC 250.[86] However, Aldo pulled out on 8 April due to visa issues as the event was expected to be moved to the United States due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[87] Following Cejudo's title defense against Dominick Cruz at UFC 249, Cejudo announced he would be retiring from active mixed martial arts competition and he vacated the UFC bantamweight championship. The UFC then announced that Aldo would be facing Petr Yan at UFC 251 on 12 July 2020, for the vacant bantamweight title. Aldo lost the bout via technical knockout in round five.
Aldo faced Marlon Vera on 19 December 2020 at UFC Fight Night 183. He won the fight via unanimous decision.

Return from retirement
Aldo, coming out of his retirement, is scheduled to face Jonathan Martinez on May 4, 2024, at UFC 301.
Professional boxing career
After many years of publicly voicing his will to box, Aldo fought Emmanuel Zambrano in an exhibition bout on February 10, 2023 at the Nova Uniano Upper Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.Aldo defeated Zambrano via unanimous decision.[102] After the bout, it was reported that Aldo was in talks to have an exhibition bout with American professional boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Aldo vs. Stephens
On April 1, 2023, Aldo made his professional boxing debut against American mixed martial artist Jeremy Stephens on the undercard of Roy Jones Jr. vs. Anthony Pettis at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The bout ended via majority draw.
On July 2, 2023, Aldo faced Brazilian professional boxer Esteban Gabriel Espindola at the Nova Uniano Upper Arena in Rio de Janeiro. Aldo won via unanimous decision.

Aldo is known primarily for his Muay Thai style striking and leg kicks, coupled with defensive wrestling. Aldo also holds a black belt in Brazilian native Catch wrestling style Luta livre and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. He has also trained Muay Thai with Dutch shootboxer Andy Souwer since his fight with Mark Hominick.
On 28 September 2014, at Nova União, under the tutelage of Mestre Roberto Leitão (10th Dan), Daniel F. A. Malvino "Pirata" (1st Dan), Marco Ruas (7th Dan) and Daniel D'dane (4th Dan), Aldo was awarded his black belt in Luta Livre.His Luta Livre instructor lineage is as follows: Roberto Leitão Sr. → João Ricardo N. de Almeida → Marco Ruas → José Aldo.
Personal life
Aldo was poor growing up and often went on days with little to no food. WEC general manager Reed Harris states, "They were telling me that Wagnney Fabiano would be at the gym, and José would show up, and Wagnney would say, 'Have you eaten today or yesterday?' If not, they would go get him some food. That's how poor he was." When asked in an interview with WEC what his motivation is, Aldo replied, "My personal desires. My dream, my goal is to own my own house. This dream motivates me more and more as I get closer to fulfilling it."[109] The Brazilian film Mais Forte que o Mundo was based on his early life.
Aldo is married to Vivianne Perreira, who has a purple belt in jiu-jitsu and has fought twice professionally in Muay Thai. Their daughter was born in 2012. On September 18, 2022, Vivianne gave birth to the couple's first son.
