He was never going to miss an opportunity to hit out at the Irishman.

Jose Aldo is back, and the former UFC featherweight champion is very glad not to be seeing Conor McGregor. The first serious press event for UFC 200 takes place on Friday evening, and all the key fighters will be there, including the Brazilian. He is getting ready to fight Frankie Edgar at the July 9th showpiece, which will, as of right now, not be featuring Conor McGregor. The Irishman explained on Thursday why he is in current dispute with the UFC over its seemingly non-stop promotional tours, and how he wants to just fight, and not be in front of camera or microphone all the time. That lengthy Facebook post has allowed the ex-champion to post this cheeky tweet tonight taking aim at the 27-year-old Dubliner in classic Jose Aldo fashion. https://twitter.com/josealdojunior/status/723595403648720896 Would you say his pose was a sneer? We'd say he has a big sneery head on him and is only loving the Irishman’s current woes. Click snap
