lol quality gaslighting from Campbell. As if the O'malley fan base won't be "introduced" to him when they meet with 2-3 extra months of prep lmao

Man, Aljo is that guy who goes to the Car dealership for that 65k Hellcat. When Aljo leaves, he's yelling about buying a 85k Hellcat with paint protection, nitrogen tires, undercoat rust proofing, extended warranty, and window tint. Just walk away Aljo....

It was apparently much worse under Joe "Angry Elf" Silva

Based on some of the stories that have come out about the way Silva treated fighters, it's surprising that nobody ever punted him like a football.

If you don't want to fight , we're not forcing you to fight
Means...
Sean is fighting for the belt... either against you or someone else

Basically a miracle that neither Joe nor Dana have ever been goozled let alone punched.

Fedor was scared of all the UFC Warriors
It was never a money thing

There was about 3 and a half months between the two fights so Sterling basically had to do back to back camps with no time to recover his minor injuries.

some mediocre management type trying to shovel a bunch of extra work that you don't want or have time to do while calling it "an incredible opportunity" is the most I've ever related to a fighter, ever
3 Months.. what champion fights after 3 months?? You dont got a clue. He went straight into another training camp, that's the tough part. I know it might be shocking to you but training camps is what takes toll on fighters bodies more so than fights and it's why they have to take breaks after fights lol
They did him dirty. When I see stuff like this I gain more and more respect for Ngannou. He didn't let this these guys strong arm him.

Vince earned his shiner and a choke that we at least know of. Feel it's only a matter of time for Dana
Aljo not being able to articulate and get his concerns accross was frustrating.
Tell them I need to fucking recover and it's insane what you're making me do as the champion lol. Maybe he was just trying to get a bigger payout? But yeah he got strong armed.. Shady shit

would be a great documentary or podcast to delve deep into the bullying and corruptness of dana and the ufc. would have to be a brave documentarian to "go there" though
