I think he's pretty much the most beloved fighter on Sherdog.

But let's see what the numbers reflect.

He’s the most active champion we had and is absolutely incredible to watch. He’s violence personified and a cool, humble and likeable guy outside of the cage,

He’s literally the champion we all wanted. I don’t know what else you’d want in a fighter tbh.
 
A bit of both, as I like his patient style reading the opponent before landing something bigger. While I don't think it's fair to other fighters how he's been matched. Strickland was a crazy step-up after struggling with Bruno. But I love how he gave Sean a false sense of being the more effective striker, leading to the kill. At LHW he didn't shine at all against Jan, but as Hill thought he could pull off jumping on a basketball court without consequences, Alex as a newcomer in the division still got to fill in for him and fight for a title. Then we all knew Anakalaev should have been next and yet we have to watch a squash match with Rountree ffs. That's why I can't be too positive but at the same time always want to see his fights. So I guess I'm indifferent to him in a sense, that's what I picked.
 
I like him, what's not to like if you're a fan of fighting? He brings the entertainment and he's a two divisional champ.

I don't love him though, I'm not a "fan" as such. I would be rooting for Jones if they got to fight. But that simply comes down to those things that you can't really explain or put a finger on.
 
I like him very much, he is a great champion who defends the belt often against all the contenders, he is violent and so skilled and his fights are so fun to watch, what's not to like. Alex has been a breath of fresh air for UFC, especially in last 5 years.
 
I love my man poatan … he’s my man !
