"I do think that Jose Aldo, who is one of my favourite fighters ever, is the 145lbs champion because McGregor hasn't defended it.

"I'm not here to talk about what's fair and what's not fair. Life isn't fucking fair.
"I would like to see my boy (Max) Holloway get a shot at that belt personally. That's the homie and I think he's one of the baddest motherfuckers in the world so I'd like to see him get a little bit of shine finally.

"Jose Aldo is the 145lbs champion and give my boy Holloway some shine!"
