The controversy stems from the fact that Aldo, while widely regarded as the best featherweight of all time, is on a two-fight skid, including a close decision loss to Marlon Moraes in his lone bantamweight fight.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to his incredible accolades, some fans just don&#8217;t feel he&#8217;s deserving of a title shot at this time.<\/p>\n<p>White has no time for that kind of belly-aching.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dana White Talks About Conor McGregor&#039;s Next Fight | TMZ Sports\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l0YICD0IXYQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p id=\"AthSzA\">\u201cThen don\u2019t watch it,\u201d White told\u00a0TMZ Sports when asked about the Cejudo vs. Aldo blowback (via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/2020\/3\/2\/21161921\/dana-white-shuts-down-full-crap-fans-who-dont-want-cejudo-aldo-ufc-250-dont-watch-it-mma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MMA Mania<\/a>). \u201cPeople are full of s**t. It\u2019s going to be an incredible fight. Aldo absolutely deserves this and Cejudo wants it, and Cejudo isn\u2019t a guy who\u2019s running around looking for easy fights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While White is probably right that even the fans who have derided this matchup will probably wind up tuning in for it, there&#8217;s little arguing that there are more deserving bantamweight contenders than Aldo \u2014 at least in the traditional sense.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to bantamweight wins over ranked opponents, both Petr Yan and Aljamain Sterling have done more to warrant bantamweight title shots than Aldo, which is why some fans are frustrated by the matchup. Yan and Sterling are also understandably upset by it, and would no doubt disagree with White when it comes to Cejudo not &#8220;running around looking for easy fights.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of this rebuttal from Dana White?
