Good fight, dominant win. Aljo black and winning, while haters are punching the air
trust me aljo, it felt like that for all of us...
Same dudes booing Aljo will say Bo Nickal is a beast, same type of fight. P.S Charles vs Arman was a snoozefest but fans continued to cheer in that fight. We know the truth UFC fans can continue to act like the elephant in the room doesn’t exist. And it’s hilarious because i have followed the sport for 12 years and i constantly see these fake manufactured “I don’t like him because” insert some dumb reason and it’s usually a certain demographic of people… take a guess who?

I wish Aljo would've kept it on the feet more. He looked solid with his striking vs a vet striker who is top 10. But impressive and dominant performance regardless. Looking forward to his next outing when he isn't excessively nervous.

Slow motion was how I'd describe it as well. I decided to make a bowl of cereal.

Aljo is great.

Aljo you are the man . a real man. No fluff. may you win every fight in your career. Also may you bless the people around you. Aljo seems to be the man to build and create strong communities .He,s the underdog in every fight .You loose to win some times, Hes Luke funking sky walker. If you know you Know.Lets go Champ.
He did what he had to do to win, but he isn't going to get a lot of new fans with that approach. Played it way too safe and was complacent of just making it to a decision.

Slow mo against a guy doin' nothin and ya still couldn't manage to do anything? That mighta been the worst fight of the night. Ain't gotta be a slugfest but if ya ain't gonna hit him, gotta try and submit him. This push a guy against the cage and win with nothing but 15 minutes of control sucks.

Hopefully ufc doesn’t renew his contract even if he’s winning. His fights are bad. Keep him on fight nights. Don’t waste a spot on a good card with his fights.

Neither did Bo Nickle and Kayla Harrison… Aljo is an Ex Champion who beat Cody Sandhagan, Petr Yan, and Henry a double champ! He has the best name in his division that he has beat. Up until the mistake against Sean in the second round he arguably won the first round. There is a reason why Sean didn’t want him to get a rematch.
