Khabib Nurmagomedov is not buying that Jose Aldo has another title run in him. The former UFC lightweight champion was rather dismissive of Aldo’s recent win over Pedro Munhoz at UFC 265 and says the way Aldo lost to Petr Yan in their vacant title fight a little more than a year ago proves he doesn’t have that much fight left in him. Since losing to Yan , Aldo (30-7 MMA, 12-6 UFC) has won back-to-back bouts over Marlon Vera and Munhoz, but Nurmagomedov insists that unless the 34-year-old Brazilian is able to beat the top contenders, no one can claim he’s gotten a second wind.
