For everything I\u2019ve done, all the years as champion, I deserved a rematch, but what can I do? I had to accept. We\u2019re not the ones making the call. We\u2019ll go there and win. I respect Frankie Edgar, but it\u2019s our first step towards the belt.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s a bit frustrating, of course, because we expected the title fight, but it\u2019s kind of what they said they would do, that we would fight Frankie Edgar for the belt, but it\u2019s not the undisputed belt. But what can I do? We\u2019re hired to go there and fight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It means nothing,&#8221; Aldo said. &#8220;I want the victory so I get the belt next. That\u2019s the first step we\u2019re taking. Interim belt is made for media and fans, not for me. I want the undisputed belt. I respect Frankie Edgar, but I\u2019ll get there and win.
