“The King of Rio” is headed to Montreal.
Jose Aldo returns to battle May 10 at UFC 315 as he takes on Aiemann Zahabi in a three-round bantamweight bout at Bell Centre, the promotion announced Tuesday.
The bout is the most recent addition to a card headlined by a welterweight title fight between Belal Muhammad and Jack Della Maddalena and co-headlined by a Valentina Shevchenko vs. Manon Fiorot women’s flyweight title fight.
Aldo (32-9 MMA, 14-8 UFC) most recently competed in October when he lost a lackluster split decision to Mario Bautista. The loss was his first since he returned from a year-plus-long retirement in early 2024. Aldo is 1-1 since his career break, having defeated Jonathan Martinez prior to the Bautista bout.
Zahabi (12-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC) appears to be a late bloomer of sorts. After a 1-2 start to his UFC tenure, Zahabi has won five fights in a row. He most recently competed in November when he defeated Pedro Munhoz by unanimous decision.
With the addition, the UFC 315 lineup includes:
Champion Belal Muhammad vs. Jack Della Maddalenna – for welterweight title Champion Valentina Shevchenko vs. Manon Fiorot – for women’s flyweight title Jose Aldo vs. Aiemann Zahabi Gilbert Burns vs. Michael Morales Alexa Grasso vs. Natalia Silva Marc-Andre Barriault vs. Bruno Silva Bekzat Almakhan vs. Brad Katona Nora Cornolle vs. Hailey Cowan Joel Alvarez vs. Benoit Saint Denis Mike Malott vs. Charlie Radtke Jessica Andrade vs. Jasmine JasudaviciusFor more on the card, visit MMA Junkie’s event hub for UFC 315.
