“But let's talk about the strengths of José Aldo, boxing, head movement. If you watch his last fight against Martinez, he was able to use all of that, just like he knocked out Moicano. But having takedown defense, closed guard, quick kicks, and movement. I mean, that's what makes José Aldo special”, praised Cejudo.

"He (mario bautista) is a guy who goes forward and mixes punches and kicks very well, along with this pressure. This can make José Aldo to fight in that 'side B' style? You know, there are two ways I see this happening: maybe Bautista uses pressure, moves to get the decision. Or José Aldo can hurt him, kicking his legs and maybe intimidating him,” said 'Triple C'.
