We’re going to need a little more reassurance than that Dana.
UFC fans are still coming to terms with news of the possible cancellation of the Conor McGregor v Jose Aldo fight next month.
Word on the street in Brazil is that Jose Aldo has suffered a fractured rib in training that would put his participation in UFC 189 on July 11 in serious jeopardy.
Well-placed UFC sources have since moved to downplay concerns and have suggested the fight is still on for now…
Here's the facts: Aldo did get hurt (first reported by @anahissa), he has also not pulled out of the fight. As of right now, it's still on.

…and a tweet from UFC head honcho Dana White this evening would appear to suggest that we might be over-reacting just a little bit.
Relax everyone

We’d prefer a little more reassurance than that Dana, but hopefully the situation, whatever it is, will become a lot clearer really soon.
Fingers crossed McGregor v Aldo will still go ahead on July 11.
