Bautista: "I still don't believe that Aldo agreed to fight me."

American UFC lightweight fighter Mario Bautista shared his thoughts on his upcoming bout with famed Brazilian former featherweight division champion Jose Aldo, which takes place on the night of October 6 at UFC 307 in Salt Lake City, USA.

"I was incredibly excited when I found out I was going to fight Aldo. Jose is a legendary UFC fighter and I still can't believe he agreed to fight me. He has the ability to fight big name fighters like Henry Cejudo, but he is desperate to take risks and go out against young and little known fighters.

A win over Aldo could propel me to the top of the division. I've always dreamed of fighting such a legendary fighter. I know Aldo is nowhere near his peak form, but it makes absolutely no difference," MMA Junkie quoted Bautista as saying.
