The co-main event for Saturday's UFC 301 pay-per-view features a potential banger at bantamweight between Jonathan Martinez and Jose Aldo.
A living legend in the sport of MMA for Brazil and beyond, Aldo's name carries an incredible amount of respect due to a resume full of title defenses and dominant destructions.
Aldo has been out of the octagon since August 2022 due to a self-imposed retirement, but the UFC Hall of Famer has stayed active with boxing bouts outside of the UFC in said time.
Martinez, on the other hand, is an unheralded talent from Factory X who has quietly been climbing the rankings at 135 pounds.
