Throughout the course of this week, interim UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway revealed that an ankle injury<\/a> will keep him from fighting Jose Aldo for the undisputed featherweight title at UFC 208 in February. Following that, recently promoted UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo revealed that he was in negotiations with the UFC to fight for the interim lightweight title<\/a>. With that being said, Aldo also revealed that Khabib Nurmagomedov had turned down the fight, due to pursuing a fight with Tony Ferguson. <\/p>\n

While there has been no word from the UFC yet on the matter, Jose Aldo’s coach, Andre Pederneieras, is now calling for the UFC to back up Aldo’s claims of moving up and challenging for an interim lightweight title.<\/p>\n

He spoke to Combate<\/a>, saying:<\/p>\n

“I think it\u2019s time for the UFC to say something and back up everything we\u2019re saying,\u201d Pederneiras told Brazilian channel Combate, as reported by Combate.com. \u201cIt sounds like we\u2019re just saying stuff, but throughout all of this I\u2019ve received messages, e-mails with proposals, everything.”<\/p>\n

\u201cOn our end, Aldo is in no way a liar. I think it\u2019s time for people to know the truth, and that\u2019s the truth. You can ask (UFC matchmaker) Sean Shelby if there\u2019s a single lie in everything I\u2019m saying.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur intention was always to defend the belt,\u201d Pederneiras said, before Holloway\u2019s manager posted the graphic explanation behind Holloway\u2019s refusal. \u201cBecause a champion who doesn\u2019t defend at least once doesn\u2019t really stamp his championship belt. (Aldo) himself said it: I won my belt, I\u2019ll defend it now \u2013 this in a conversation between us \u2013 and we\u2019ll go after Conor.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Sean Shelby told me the fight wasn\u2019t happening on Feb. 11, I said, \u2018Sean, we\u2019re now in a complicated situation. Our plans for this year would be this fight, challenging the No. 1 (lightweight) challenger, which would be Khabib \u2013 we want to get the toughest guy in the division, who everyone, say, runs from \u2013 and then, after that, Conor, who\u2019s pregnant and will only fight after that.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Only time will tell if Aldo is given the opportunity to fight for the interim featherweight title, or if the UFC is using the potential fight as a negotiation tactic when dealing with Tony Ferguson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
