In the final few seconds, Aldo backed Mendes against the cage and landed a jab that seemingly stunned Mendes, then the round ended and Aldo landed a jab-cross combination that sent Mendes to the mat.  On TV what fans saw was an incredibly dirty move that left many viewers with a bad taste in their mouth going into the second round.<\/p>\n<p>UFC President Dana White, and UFC featherweight kingpin Jose Aldo both painted a very different, but understandable scenario for the late punches.<\/p>\n<p>White spoke to <a href=\"http:\/\/mmajunkie.com\/2014\/10\/jose-aldo-dana-white-insist-they-didnt-hear-bell-late-shots-werent-deliberate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MMAJunkie<\/a> about the situation.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cAfter that first round, a couple people came over and started saying, \u2018He hit him with two punches after the bell. That was late.&#8217; I didn\u2019t hear anything. It was so loud in that arena, I didn\u2019t hear it. It didn\u2019t look like the referee heard it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI guess on TV, it looked really dirty, like real deliberate punches after the bell.  I was in that arena, and I didn\u2019t hear anything. I didn\u2019t hear the bell. I didn\u2019t hear anything. Maybe some people did, maybe some people didn\u2019t, but I didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think it was deliberate, not to mention that normally the referee is right there when the bell rings to break it up in case that would happen. I don\u2019t think he heard it either. So that\u2019s my two cents.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Aldo spoke at the post-fight press conference when asked about the incident.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cIt was like deja vu.  When it was about to end right there, I thought I had already won the fight. So I landed two punches, and the ref got in front of me, and I thought I had won, but the round was over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI heard the crowd. Everyone was screaming, and I thought I was going to be able to run into the crowd again, but they put me back in, and we had to restart the fight.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After UFC 179&#8217;s main event started quickly, with both fighters trading shots and rocking one another, the first round was coming to a close.
