Aljo cuts weird promo, looking LEAN

[Natural Order]

These guys can barely even watch a fight while high on coke, let alone cut a promo like Randy could.

None of these guys can take blow like the champions from the golden era of pro-wrestling and cut an insane, over-the-top promo.

Randy, Piper, Flair. None of these fighters could do a promo like these guys

I'm close to leaving MMA and just watching 80's WWF on reruns the remainder of my adult life.

He had SOME success with his constant pressure and awkward striking, his gas tank just faded quickly and you could tell by the 3rd he was fucked for the long haul. He has to be working hard on his cardio to try and keep that pressure for 5 rounds straight, otherwise I don't see a path for victory especially when Aljo was losing the grappling exchanges.

I mean that's what Yan has been able to do against everybody especially in these 5 round fights. Guys can hang with him for a round or two but by the 3rd the tide always turns in his favor and it snowballs from there. Aljo saw it in the first fight and I think he knows it's coming in this one too.

I respect that he’s trying to be a heel. Still war Yan though.

 

[Joshuaace]

I respect him as a fighter, but the show he out on in the cage was deplorable sir.

Was the blatant illegal knee deplorable also? Or just Aljo's reaction to it?

If you read this whole thread you'd see that I said Yan was in the wrong for that.

They could use a guy like Dusty Rhodes or Razor Ramon in mma.

But you only lost respect for the victim!

 

[StonedLemur]

You're trolling me here right?

I lost respect for him, due to his hollywood act in the cage.
Acting like he was massively hurt when he was fine.

My brother used to do that when we were kids to get me in trouble...Aljo did it at 30 years old...like a child.

It would be one of MMAs greatest moments if he KOs Petr Yan.

I'd unironically be happy for him.

Note: CTE can be suspected, but not diagnosed until you are dead. Post-mortum brain biopsy is the only way to conclusively determine that.

"So doc, what do I have ?"
-"I'm sorry, you were diagnosed with death. But hey, the good news is, we're gonna be able to run tests to see if you got that nasty CTE. It ruins lives you know ?"

So....... he's looking lean, huh?







Desperate attempt to stop the derail

More mid to late 90s for me

Being in shape has never been his problem.

The problem is how skilled he is. Or rather isn't (compared to Yan).

 

[Holli]

man ive talked so much shit about Aljo leading up to this fight. If he wins i'm going to look so stupid.

 

[dragovic]

The worst thing about this is that Aljo really believes that this is the best way to sell the fight and get some fans. Lol. Can’t wait until he’s irrelevant again. Lame dork

 

[ExxA]

He definitely did sir.
Cool av btw, funny stuff.

Thanks!

Always had a soft spot for Baroni, thought he was an exciting/fun fighter. Even though his record isnt that great.

Facts are facts. Sorry they shatter your paradigm, there, buddy.

 

[pudgelarson36]

It’s so strange that the fighter who gets fouled is always cast as the villain. He probably could have continued, but why should he?

 

[jeff7b9]

It's kind of ironic that MMA fans are the whiniest most trigger sensitive group of sports fans on the planet.

You guys made him do this. I genuinely believe that if Aljo wasn't immediately crucified by the keyboard warriors for not getting up after a vicious illegal knee, he wouldn't have said fuck it and gone with this shtick.

Fans didn't make him flop around the cage faking drama and fans didn't make him act like a corny fucktard.

He could have taken a classy path but chose not to, hence all that comes with his decision is on him.

"I came in to beat him in a fair fight and he broke the rules. I was compromised by the illegal knee and I knew I might not get another chance to fight for the title. I just want the fair fight I earned so we can run it back and may the best man win, and I plan to keep the title."

He could have said something like that. Instead he chose to be an asshole. If the fans have "crucified him" them he brought the cross and the nails.
