Anyone actually rooting for Ankalaev?

Nah. Ankalaev is too boring. I also want Pereira to win because there would be some juicy fights waiting down the line.

Aspinall vs Pereira, for example.
I think Tom murks him, but still want to see it. No way Tom will stand and bang with him, and he'll fight heavy on top of Alex.
 
I’m fully convinced that Alex is the most liked fighter in the history of the sport. Does anyone really not like him? At this point it’s almost like not liking dogs or The Sopranos.

I don't dislike dogs at all, but I certainly hate a lot of shitty dog owners. Poatan has developed the most embarrassing fanbase of fluffers who have adopted him as their pet fighter, so I would like to see him lose for their collective meltdown, even though I have nothing against him.

The Sopranos is also overrated. It became a rather uninteresting show when Nancy Marchand died and basically just another generic mob war story - the psychological aspect was ultimately unsatisfying. It had some good characters, episodes and standout scenes though, so I'm hardly saying it sucks.

But the fact everything else David Chase did is a pile of goat shit, including the movie version of the Sopranos, should give you a hint that it's not as brilliant as you think it is.
 
Do you guys want to see the best guy as champion or just the more exciting guy?

Don't need to boil it down to "rooting" for either guy. Let's see them both step in there and see who is the best, simple as that.
 
I want Alex to win cause hopefully we then get to see Khamzat vs Alex

If Ankalaev wins Khamzat might not fight him... because "my brudah" and all that

I think tom would stand and ko him like he had every other guy. I don't think anyone wants to stand with Tom it's a ko.

I have to disagree. The Sopranos is the best show. Season One of the worst season by far. S2 was amazing, and it only gets better from there (after Nancy died).

Alex Pereira is gonna kick Ank's ass worse than Tony did to Dominick Tedesco in the Pizza World parking lot.
