Aljamain Sterling has responded to Jose Aldo after he tells him to ‘sign the contract’.<\/p>\n

It was Sterling (21-3 MMA) who defeated Petr Yan (16-3 MMA) at UFC 273, defending his bantamweight title.<\/p>\n

Following the victory, Sterling initially showed an interest in TJ Dillashaw, (18-4 MMA) but has since moved on to calling out Jose Aldo (31-7 MMA) for his next fight.<\/p>\n

\"Aljamain<\/p>\n

Aldo has won his last 3 fights in a row, the latest defeating Rob Font (19-5 MMA) in December of 2021.<\/p>\n

The Brazilian took to ‘Twitter’ telling the champ to sign the contract:<\/p>\n

“Aljamain,<\/em><\/p>\n

I am waiting for you to sign the contract for our fight. There is no doubt that the fans want to watch this fight. We are currently the 2 best bantamweights in the UFC.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Well actually according to the UFC Bantamweight Rankings, Aldo is listed at number 4.<\/p>\n

Aldo went on to explain why he deserved a shot ahead of TJ Dillashaw and Henry Cejudo<\/a> saying via ‘Twitter<\/a>‘:<\/p>\n

\u201cLet the rest of the boys fighting each other and exchanging insults on the internet. In my opinion it does not make any sense to let a guy who got suspended for 2 years for cheating to come back and fight for the belt after winning a split decision in a fight I think he lost.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Continuing Aldo said:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cThe other one is a clown who faked his retirement just to try to raise his purse \u2013 as that did not work now he wants to fight for the title after spending 2 years out of the game (and out of the USADA\u2019s pool).\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

In response Aljamain Sterling had this to say via ‘Twitter’:<\/p>\n

“@danawhite @seanshelby Hunter, when is our next War room meeting? Lots of money to be made!”<\/em><\/p>\n

It seems like Sterling and Aldo are both very interested in making the fight happen.<\/p>\n
