Jose Aldo isn’t too concerned about not being able to train for his bantamweight title fight against Henry Cejudo.<\/p>\n

In the main event of UFC 250 on May 9 in Brazil<\/a>, Cejudo is looking for his first bantamweight title defense when he battles Aldo. The fight being made was heavily criticized given the fact the Brazilian is 0-1 at the weight class<\/a> and on a two-fight losing skid.<\/p>\n

Although it is a massive opportunity for Aldo to fight for the belt, training has become difficult. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Brazilian has had to limit who he trains with.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll separate a group of athletes, no more than five fighters that have been in quarantine as well, and I know they don\u2019t have it, so they can train with me,\u201d Jose Aldo told MMA Fighting<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve proven I don\u2019t have it [by staying at home for two weeks]. If they don\u2019t have it either, we can train and have contact. I\u2019ll train exclusively with that group.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re all isolated. We\u2019re in quarantine, so, when it\u2019s over, we\u2019ll take all the precaution needed and be able to train jiu-jitsu and spar. We\u2019ll be able to do out normal training. The gym is closed, so we\u2019ll open it just for us and train without risking getting contaminated or contaminating others.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Aldo not having a full set of training partners, he isn’t too worried about it. He says the only worry is making weight. Besides that he believes he’ll beat Cejudo easily.<\/p>\n

\u201cF***, I only need a week of training to beat Cejudo,\u201d Aldo said. \u201cI\u2019m more worried about making weight than fighting him. I can be off camp, on vacation, but if you put me in the Octagon with him, I beat him with an eye closed. So, for me, it\u2019s not about sparring, if I only have a month or a week to train, I beat him even if I\u2019m not training. The only problem is the weight, so that\u2019s why I\u2019m eating well. I\u2019m cool about the fight though, don\u2019t worry about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Why he’s so confident is simple. Jose Aldo believes he’s better everywhere than Cejudo and is confident he’ll finish him.<\/p>\n

\u201cI beat him wherever the fights goes. Easy,\u201d Aldo said. \u201cI\u2019ll knock him out fast, no doubt about it. It won\u2019t go five rounds, brother. It won\u2019t. No doubt. If he tries to take me down, he won\u2019t succeed because I\u2019ve fought better wrestlers than him. I respect his history in the Olympics, he was an Olympic champion, congratulations, hats off to him, but it\u2019s a whole other sport. It\u2019s completely different. He won the Olympics at 55kg (121.25 pounds) and it\u2019s completely different from MMA.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not worried about it. I have way more jiu-jitsu than him. If he takes me to the ground, I\u2019ll submit him even if I\u2019m not training for a year, and if we stay on the feet, I\u2019ll knock him out. Don\u2019t worry, wherever the fight goes I\u2019ll knock him out.\u201d<\/p>\n

What do you make of Jose Aldo saying he only needs one week to beat Henry Cejudo?<\/p>\n
