Jose Aldo has never lost in the WEC or UFC and defended his title ten consecutive times. Now Aldo is focused on keeping that title and hopefully retiring with it around his waist:

“I’m the dominant champion. I’m keeping this title for years, I’m always at the top of the division and at the top of the pound for pound ranking, so that makes it big,” Aldo said. “But I don’t care about it if Dana promotes the other athlete or not. The important thing is that I’m the champion.”

“The promotion doesn’t guarantee nothing, the champion does and it doesn’t matter if they are promoting or not.”

“I’ve seen champions that didn’t do well in their careers in the end. I want to leave at the top, as champion, like Georges St-Pierre did,” Aldo said.

“That’s what I focus on. It doesn’t matter who the opponent is, if I already fought him or not, if I’m going to, when I stop, when I look back, I will see that I fought the best and did pretty well.”
