If Victorious Over Edgar Aldo Contemplating Move To Lightweight Division | UFC NEWS

“It’s a fight between two very explosive guys. Anything can go. I’ve considered going to lightweight. As soon as my trainer decides that I can go up, then I will. This fight with Edgar will be a turning point. If I can win [against] him well, then I can prove that I can go [to lightweight]. He has a very strong reputation thanks to destroying several opponents. That’s the motivation for me to face him and that will be probably my last biggest challenge [at featherweight]… I see as a challenge. Frank already proved that he is a trooper, he will go to fight all five rounds, and he doesn’t give up. This is the fight I wanted.”
