MONTREAL – Aiemann Zahabi sought help from a UFC Hall of Famer to prep for Jose Aldo.
Zahabi (12-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC) takes on ex-champ Aldo (32-9 MMA, 14-8 UFC) in a bantamweight bout on Saturday's UFC 315 (pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+) main card at Bell Centre in Montreal.
In his corner will be former UFC double champ Georges St-Pierre, who has sold out arenas and conquered the welterweight division for years. As Zahabi faces his biggest-career moment, St-Pierre gave him some sage advice.
"He just told me not to over-respect him," Zahabi told MMA Junkie and other reporters during Wednesday's media day.
