QUICK TWITT | Mendes, Lamas & Swanson Jockey For #1 Contender Slot

There are three viable contenders sitting right behind Jose Aldo waiting for a crack at the UFC’s featherweight champion.

Those men are Chad Mendes, Ricardo Lamas and Cub Swanson.

All three have a legit claim to challenge for the title and as such they took to twitter and discussed their case amongst each other.

Check it:

Alright @josealdojunior it's time for the rematch. I am the #1 contender…… period! Lets do this.
