Roceline Souza was happy enough to see her son’s entrance to the octagon at UFC 194.
Jose Aldo’s mother was then planning on heading home to catch the post-fight interviews and to wait on a phone-call from her son.
She did not get too far, however, as Conor McGregor delivered a 13-second knockout that ended Aldo’s 10-year unbeaten streak.
Surrounded by reporters and TV cameras, she backed her son to the hilt. She declared:
“In the UFC anything can happen but, in the name of Jesus, we will have a rematch.
“Do not be sad. These things happen to warriors. Aldo is a warrior.”
A proud, proud woman.
The video, from Globo Esporte, was released last week but it is certainly worth a watch.
