MMA legend Jose Aldo returns at UFC 315 to face rising bantamweight contender Aiemann Zahabi in a high-stakes showdown. With Aldo aiming for another title run and Zahabi seeking the biggest win of his career, this fight is a must-watch.
MMA legend Jose Aldo is set to return to the Octagon at UFC 315 on May 8 at the Bell Centre in Montreal, where he will take on surging Canadian bantamweight Aiemann Zahabi (12-2) in a highly anticipated showdown.
Aldo’s Quest for Another Title Run
Aldo (32-9), a 2023 UFC Hall of Fame inductee, remains a dangerous force in the bantamweight division. The former two-time UFC featherweight champion holds the record for most consecutive title defenses (7) in the division’s history and boasts victories over elite names like Frankie Edgar (twice), Urijah Faber, Chad Mendes (twice), Marlon Vera, and Rob Font.
The Brazilian veteran last fought at UFC 307, where he dropped a razor-thin split decision to rising contender Mario Bautista. Now ranked No. 8 in the global bantamweight rankings, Aldo is determined to make another run for UFC gold.
Zahabi Looks for Career-Defining Victory
For Canada’s Aiemann Zahabi, this fight represents the biggest opportunity of his career. Riding a five-fight win streak, Zahabi secured a dominant unanimous decision victory over Pedro Munhoz in November, proving he belongs among the division’s best. A win over a legend like Aldo would instantly elevate his status in the 135-pound rankings.
