UFC heavyweight Matt Mitrione has been very vocal with his thoughts on the UFC\/Reebok deal and is happy someone else is too.<\/p>\n

UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo recently came out and blasted the deal<\/a>. Mitrione was a guest on The MMA Hour<\/a> and talked about Aldo’s comments, saying that he is grateful a champion finally came forward.<\/p>\n

“I think he\u2019s very accurate, I think he\u2019s highly accurate. I think he\u2019s right and I think he\u2019s got huge stones to say it. He\u2019s the first champion to say it, the first highly paid guy — which, I\u2019m assuming he\u2019s highly paid, because nobody\u2019s beating him. The dude\u2019s a monster.

\n“So I think he has huge stones and he\u2019s doing it for the greater good, and it\u2019s not the same \u2018greater good\u2019 as the Reebok deal. I think it takes huge stones on his part and I respect him a lot for doing it, for sure. Especially because he has a lot to lose, but he also knows that they, I think he feels they really can\u2019t do that much to him because he\u2019s the man. He knows that.” <\/em><\/p>\n

What do you make of all this deal talk, do you see any positives with it?<\/p>\n
