Nate Landwehr weighs in on Jose Aldo's featherweight GOAT debate

Nate Landwehr recently shared his thoughts on the ongoing debate about the featherweight GOAT in an exclusive interview with SportskeedaMMA.

Specifically, Landwehr weighed in on the legacy of Jose Aldo, who many consider being one of the greatest featherweights of all time. While Aldo's reign as champion came to an end with a TKO loss to Conor McGregor in 2015, he remains a legendary figure in the sport. He boasts an impressive record of 31-8 and seven successful title defenses during his reign as champion.

When asked about Aldo's place in the featherweight GOAT debate, Landwehr said:

"I think he was the first one. I think he did well. He's a legend in Brazil, and I think that everything he did helped the sport. But he's a man like anybody else. The fighter in me with the ego in me, is like, nobody's more than equal, you know what I mean?" [6:09 mark]
