Jose Aldo will need time to adjust to his life as a mere mortal once again.
The former featherweight champion lost out in sensational fashion to Conor McGregor last night in Las Vegas, as his proud record of being the only UFC featherweight champion ever came crashing down.
The 29-year-old will need some time and support from friends and family to recover form the loss, and one of those who has reached out to him is current UFC heavyweight championship Fabricio Werdum.
Aldo is as close as possible to a national hero in his native land, and the heavyweight champion has put his arm around the shoulder of the defeated featherweight in this emotional tribute to his friend, and man, whom he calls ‘brother on Instagram.
The translation of the post states:
“Your successful history was already written and nothing will ever override your legacy. You’re still the people’s champion who represents the passion of all Brazilians. We’re with you, brother”
