The man who Jose Aldo brought in to mimic Conor McGregor’s techniques, doesn’t think the Irish have a hope at UFC 189.
Earlier this week, a video surfaced of Jonas Bilharinho mimicking the techniques of Conor McGregor as Jose Aldo studied them up close.
Bilharinho has explained the reason why Aldo recruited him for his camp, and it is just as we suspected.
“[I am there] to emulate Conor McGregor and prepare Aldo for the unexpected. He is talented and got some skills. But I must say that it’s not new, my fighting style is like his.”
Since he reckons they share such a similar style, it is unsurprising that Bilharinho thinks highly of McGregor as a martial artist. However, he doesn’t think much of the Dubliner as a person.
” Conor is a great martial artist, but talks too much. As a person I don’t know him but he seems to be a nice guy (but) I think he is not respectful. Aldo is the number one p4p fighter in the world, Conor shouldn’t say those nonsense stuff.”
Bilharinho then gave his prediction for the main event at UFC 189, before saying that he too would bury Mcgregor if given the chance.
“Aldo thinks he is an asshole and I sign below. Aldo will kill him on July 11 and I will bury (him) when the UFC give me a chance. Aldo never talks about him.”
“Aldo will knock Conor out.”
