Jose Aldo rules his weight class, collecting 13 consecutive triumphs, and he will face the undefeated Chad Mendes at UFC Rio, next Saturday (14th). Former heavyweight champion, Shogun Rua believes Aldo will get the win, reaching Anderson Silva’s level, biggest champion in all UFC history.

“Jose Aldo is the man to be defeated on his division, like Anderson”, highlights Shogun, while talking to TATAME.

After experimenting fighting on the Wonderful City for Ultimate, Mauricio warn that Aldo, like all other Brazilians on the card, will have a wonderful night ahead of them.

“There’s nothing more motivating than fighting for your fans. I was really glad with their support and affection. Fans are good all over the world, but here in Brazil it’s special”, tells Shogun, excited about the show. “There’ll be great fights, great MMA names”, concludes.
