At least he has a Pro fight record, unlike 99% of those trying to talk down about a stranger that they all know of, and obviously follow to some extent.. while the man being hated on, has no clue who these people are, nor would he care what they think or say. Then factor in the reality that Usman, Khabib, Edgar, and Cody, amongst others, actually ask Ali to come train with them during fight camp, plus is also being highly respected by Renzo, Cesar and Ralph Gracie, and gyms like CSA, AKA, TAM all have an open door policy with him to come train with the pro team.. says a lot as to who the man is outside of what haters like Helwani say. Not to mention all the successful fighters who allow him and pay him to manage them.
