Twitter reacts to McGregor vs. Mendes
Jose Aldo is unable to compete and McGregor will now fight Chad Mendes for the interim featherweight title fight. Twitter reacted with excitement for the new title fight.
Earlier tonight Dana White officially announced that Jose Aldo would be unable to compete and Conor McGregor would instead fight Chad Mendes for the interim featherweight title fight. Twitter reacted with excitement for the new title fight:
Dana White: Aldo has pulled out of numerous title fights. That's why it's for the belt. We've spent a lot of money, it's disappointing.

Jose Aldo out of UFC 189. Honestly, I'd rather see the plan B fight of McGregor vs. Mendes then see an injured man pressured into fighting.

When @chadmendes wins will Dana even put the belt on him or will he be too pissed to do it?

Well honestly @chadmendes is an even worse matchup for The Irishmen.

Mende$ is a way different fight for the Irishman. Much tougher to game plan for. Just as Killashaw did, Mendes takes home Gold. #UFC189
