When Jose Aldo went to Dublin for the final stop on the UFC 189 World Tour, he brought along WSOF lightweight Saul Almeida as his translator.
Things nearly came to a head when Conor McGregor reacted to Aldo calling himself the "King of Dublin," snatching Aldo's belt from in front of him in the most talked about moment of the eight-city tour. Almeida, who picked up a win on the undercard of WSOF 20 last week, says it was actually his influence that led to Aldo's comment in the first place.
