Jose Aldo is quickly shifting his focus to Conor McGregor after capturing the interim featherweight championship at UFC 200 on Saturday.
Aldo wrapped his post-fight interview by gesticulating at McGregor, who was sitting nearby outside the Octagon.
"I have one goal, and that's to beat this guy," Aldo said while pointing at his rival.
As expected, @JoseAldoJunior & @TheNotoriousMMA go at it! #UFC200 https://t.co/SAcp1ptLSv

Aldo will have to wait to see the result of McGregor's upcoming fight against Nate Diaz before his wish is granted.
