Conor McGregor has used Jose Aldo’s tendancy to pull-out of fights as his main reason for blowing off a possible rematch with him. According to the statistics here, Aldo has pulled out of 5 out of 22 scheduled fights since 2009.

In total Nova Uniao fighters pulled out of 20 fights in this time period, and their opponents pulled out of 13. The big offender is Aldo, but there are others with poor percentages here. Johnny Eduardo pulling out of 3 of 8 fights could be considered worrying, and Gadelha pulling out twice out of 7 fights isn’t great either.
