pen trials in professional boxing, he decided that in the end he could make some good money in an exhibition fight against the former world boxing leader Floyd Mayweather.

MMA Fighting: “His side has already agreed, my side too. Now we wait until [промоутеры] make a deal.”
On August 20, 2022, at UFC 278, Aldo was defeated on points by Merab Dvalishvili, after the 36-year-old veteran announced his retirement. The UFC agreed to release the Brazilian, despite the current contract, according to which he had one more fight to fight.
On February 10, Aldo made his boxing debut, defeating
Emmanuel Zambrano by unanimous decision in their home country of Brazil.
He already has his next boxing match scheduled: On April 1, Jose will fight Jeremy Stevens at Gamebred Boxing 4, where the main event will be Roy Jones and former UFC champion Anthony Pettis.
As for Floyd, the American actively travels around the world with “exhibitions”, and on February 25 he will hold another such fight in London (England) – with a local ex-MMA fighter Aaron Chalmers.
