A white guy in his exact shoes would just get a 'meh' from these same stans-not-fans

theyre trying to get yan out of the picture because sterling is more marketable
Just mob mentality.
He wasn't loved or hated before the Yan fight. It's also like people forget that YAN THREW A DISGUSTINGLY ILLEGAL BLOW AND KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING.
They had a weird fight with a weird ending, Aljo got the belt on a technicality, and people hate him for feeding his family that championship money.
I would have done the same thing to feed my family, regardless of what anyone thinks.
What? You think the UFC is going to shit on their own rules? It's only been 6 months, if Aljo hasn't fought in a year then strip him then.Creating an interim belt to hold off for the guy, that won the belt by DQ with no title defenses....ya that seems a little off.
They're trying to get him out of the way by giving him an interim title.
Makes sense.
Well technically grip strength would have little to do with the levels they operated on in his c spine. We are also trained pretty well to sniff out malingerers. But your last statement is accurate that erring on the side of caution, especially in the cervical spine where the ramifications are pretty dang important, is the smart play. No doubtits pretty easy to go to a doctor and play up all your symptoms, cry, and get an excuse.
especially true with injuries like his. doc asked him to make a fist to test hand grip strength. Aljo probably gave 50% effort and acted like he was in pain.
for a doc with his license on the line, he's going to be on the side off caution rather than let a fighter who doesn't want to fight back in there.
I think this makes sense.Yan shouldn’t have to fight someone else to get his rematch for the belt
strip Aljo, and he can have an immediate title shot when he’s ready
I mean that's pure speculation, but ok.Aljo: ''Hey Doc my neck is still messed up and I can't train. I won't be able to fight with this pain.''
Doctor: ''Ok no problem''
1. Non-white people can be racist too.
2. What exactly is he milking? What is the benefit here?
He will get a career high payday by defending as the champion.
As it stands now, he's just getting a bunch of hate for sitting out with the belt.
Also, the fact that he failed his medicals means that he accepted the fight injured (to get paid).

They generally schedule title fights a few months out. They obviously did so with the assumption that Sterling would be good to go by 267.Suuuuuure,
why schedule the fight if he was’t cleared? On top of light sparring with Merab, this is all just a bad look.
You're being an idiot. Aljo's knee was on the ground, not lifted in the air. Yan's knee was 100% illegal.It was not a legit foul.
Fucking cuck bitch Aljo was playing the turtle game, and Yan lifted him off the ground before the knee.
Even if you lift the fighter's knee off the ground by 1 inch, it's still a legal knee. Aljo should be banned from ever fighting again for playing the chicken turtle game and then being burned, and rolling around like a goof afterwards.
they hate him because he faked an injury to win a fight he was losing, which is expressly against the rules. he is a cheater. aljo is a filthy cheater, and a malingering fight dodging drama queen. and the fact that his whole act revolves around calling yan a cheater doesn’t help. if anything, it should have been a point deduction, a no contest at worst. crowning aljo champion is like a slap in the face to every champion who ever earned a victory. so yeah, of course everyone hates him. he did it to himself.
and no, he’s never going to beat yan. yan is a superior fighter.
