Jose Aldo has fired a warning to Conor McGregor ahead of their proposed rematch after he pulled off an impressive victory for the interim featherweight belt at UFC 200.

Frankie Edgar proved no match for Aldo as he claimed a unanimous decision from the judges and the new champion is desperate to avenge his defeat to McGregor and become the undisputed champion once again.

McGregor’s emphatic 13-second knockout of Aldo in December ended the 29-year-old’s unbeaten record in the UFC and he was quick to turn to the watching Irishman cageside and let him know he was coming for him.




McGregor attended the game ahead of his own rematch bout at welterweight with Nate Diaz on August 20.

The 28-year-old has become obsessed with settling his dispute with the only man ever to beat him in the UFC, but has already assured Aldo that he will be back to defend his featherweight title.

Speaking to BT Sport after his title win, Aldo delivered a message to McGregor straight to camera.

With Aldo needing to fight McGregor to unify the division belts, rumours have been circulating that the rematch could take place at Madison Square Garden in New York on November 12.
