Damn big respect to Cejudo for sitting down with you after the fight to talk about it! 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who has better hair?
lol
@@jingusus bro does have a gorgeous head of hair…pause
Fckin 💀
Big congrats Aljo, these are the fruits of your labor bro. Love to see it champ🦾
He’s got a lot of work to do before he can call himself the bantamweight champ though .
I don’t usually do this but how tf did you really put ‘our’ instead of ‘are’ 😂
@@kam9625 U right bro wtf🤣
@@ReeceClark-rl5gd he is the champ like it or not
@@edwardvazquez8646 he’s the paper champ. In a lot of people’s eyes the champ is Merab right now
Ngl i was rootin for Cejudo but when i watched the fight you really did an amazing job at exposing his weaknesses, you did the Knees like Demetrious Johnson did to him, the leg kicks of Marlon Moraes and the shuffling of side to side somewhat like Dominick Cruz and baited him in perfectly. Congratz champ💪🏾💪🏾💯💯
I was laughing when Cejudo did that stupid head feint thing that he got Cruz with when he saw Aljo shuffle stances
Bait comment
Very interestingly put man 🤔
Bruh, you smart as hell. Aware like I always say, super aware of yourself and your opponents. I was So impressed with your performance and saw that you did in fact reach a new level of asswhoopery. Good job Aljo, I'm proud of you
You can’t hate Aljo if you watch his channel. Dude is so real you can’t help but like him and appreciate the honesty…on everything. Respect.
Yeah, he's great - student of the game.
Him admitting Volk would “beat me up” right now was so dope. Ego and complacency is always the downfall of champions, good to hear he’s still hungry enough to continue on the improvements he’s already made.
Thanks so much for all you do! Really respect the honesty and transparency you approach the game with. As a fan it's sometimes hard because there's so much bullshit in MMA but fighters like you make it worthwhile.
⚡️⚡️🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🔥🔥🔥🔥👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
Aljo is probably the least respected champion, and that’s crazy. Just look at what he’s done in this sport he deserves more respect.
Tbh, after the critism of Izzy, Usman and Aljo (notice the pattern?) Who honestly cares about impressing these idiot brain-dead fans? Alot of them have subconscious bias against certain fighters (pattern) so they'l always find ways to knit-pick and see the glass as half empty! Keep doing you and focus of YOUR fan base rather than trying to gain unworthy fans🤴
he is the all time goat to be honest
@@light-qe3gv all time greatest of all time?
@@light-qe3gv Dominic Cruz bruh. Jon Jones all time but Cruz is the Bantamweight King.
@@shadow_realm47 nigga called jonathan goat 🤣
I’m So Proud of my Caribbean/West Indian brother!!! You did it!!!🤛🏾
🤣🤣🤣 they treat him like he's a white tourist in Jamaica
He's American!
🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
@@nonya8966 Henry is American too is he not a Mexican?
@@barakobama8194 they treat anyone from America like a tourist in the Caribbean. He’s still a West Indian
Appreciate the recap Aljo! Was amazing to see you keep up this journey since I first saw you 5 years ago. Much love from Oakland!
I knew you were going to do it. Congratulations, Aljo. You inspire us.
Im now a fan of you, you’re active as a fighter and you’re extremely skilled good luck on the rest of your journey
And he fights all of the best.
He's the perfect champ, fights twice a year that's good enough for me.
Also fights whoever they put in front of him in The MOST SKILLED Division BW🐐
@@yoaregey7296 exactly he doesn’t make excuses
I love the title and I respect the honesty coming up for this video. Can’t wait. Let’s go champ 🎉✅✅
Congratulations on the win Aljo, I felt you fought a great fight, keep shining champ 🌟 👏👏👏
I do not understand how anyone could honestly legitimately dislike aljo
It's that first Yan fight and the way he "won" the belt that still puts a bad taste in people's mouths.
I like him as a person but I hate his fight style and I like his opponents so it's hard to watch him beat them in the way that he does, but he deserves respect and he seems like a good dude.
@@jwev I wish more people could say it like you just did. I understand people not liking the style he uses. I'm an Aljo fan, but I don't completely love the way he uses the "grounded opponent" rule 😂. Rules are rules though, and like you said, he deserves respect. You're real for saying that 👌💯
If you didn’t watch his KZhead channel it’s very easy
Aljo's Henry impersonation had me ☠ LOL!
Congratulations Champ! I'm glad henry finally pays his respect!
Good talk, real talk, u seem like a cool dude, down to earth.
Man Aljo I’m so happy for you bro. Can really tell you’re a good person at heart and people just love to hate. You’ve already won in life dawg fr 🤝🏾
Another ruby on that hard earned belt! ♦️
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Great work bro! Excited for your next one.
Good job Aljo! I am happy for your success.
It’s 5:30am in Cali and I saw the thumbnail thinking you and Cejudo were interviewing
Great win Aljooo
Best Bantamweight of all time in the UFC. Cruz was the best in WEC ❤
lovin all the content. def became a fan after all the content around this fight. llookin forward to the suga fight!
Lol when Aljo brings up that kid from Henry's camp. Bro was mean mugging so hard. If they run it back that guy better be there again.
Well done Aljo,good performance great win
Much respect man. I have known about you for a few years now and can say I am truly a fan. Watching this video even makes me respect you more now. It took a very long time for people to even understand they hadn't figured you out yet. Talking about your strengths and game plans shows your wisdom and fighting understanding. Your a beast man, I wish to see them leg kicks, knees and checking kicks versus O'Malley. Your blueprint for success is always a ground game and I love it. For O'Malley if you trade with him, get them legs all night. He won't be prepared and I totally believe you get him in a big ko threat this route. I am a nobody so totally understand not even paying attention to this. Just my thoughts, and ultimately I am routing for you. Do what you do and I will be cheering for you.
Watched this whole video. Awesome job boys!
Yes, please keep the podcasts consistent, loving the content champ.
I’m so proud-of you! Congratulations
Congratulations to you champ!
“Maybe I have to do what henry does” when talking about striking with Sean. Reason you’re so good Aljo, no ego just determination to be great!!
Aljo, got to be honest I didn’t think you’d make it past your first defense couple years back. I either underestimated you or you’ve made massive improvements - or a mix of both. Congrats on an amazing run of defenses the past couple years. In contention for GOAT bantamweight easily.
The scariest thing about Aljo is that he improves his game significantly every fight. Even at this level. Can not wait to see what he will look like agai st Sean. I have a pretty solid feeling that Sean is getting ragdolled and backpacked, but Sean is also an extremely dangerous guy with his hands and feet. Who knows, maybe knowing that he either has Merab, Aljo, or Henry next, Sean has been obsessively drilling takedown defense with some good grapplers. Can't really count either guy completely out, but it I think it should be locked in for Aljo.
Aljo cant go looking to stand with Sean in the later rounds like he did with Henry. That being said, I think Aljo comes out aggressive, Sean makes a mistake and get choked unconscious inside 2 rounds
Aljo we were there in attendance. I'm from NJ There were lots of cheers when you were announced the winner everyone in my section stood up the boos came later cause of butt sore haters not liking the decision. Stay strong, true mma fans now what's going on. All I know we had no voice left cheering for you. Btw loved your walking out mix pretty cool. Keep on winning and staying true to yourself Champ🏆👊✊
I swear the people booing weren’t from NJ 😂
I felt weird bruh how can the home town people boo the homes. One of the worst crowds. It wasn't bad fight. Cejudo never pulled the trigger to making it into a dog fight.
@Sports Entertainer from what I noticed by attending ufc and boxing events in the NY/NJ area many people especially casuals cheer based on ethnicity...they see a Hispanic last name and cheer for them. Last year in Long Island Ortega vs Rodriguez you would've thought you were in Mexico...Burns got the biggest pop whenever they showed him and when he walked out many Brazilians in Newark.
@@MDP673NJ1 That makes sense 😭 so everyone from Ironbound went to the fight
And your bro here on the show with you is hella honest with you but accurate and supportive. Real sh*+
crazy how taxing fighting is on these athletes. respect.
Rest up bro, what a fight! 🔥
So proud of this team, man. And i still stand behind what I always say about you, the day you completely silence the doubts and realize what an absolute fucking animal you are, thats the day you dominate whatever division you choose. FAITH, Belief and the confidence to remember who the fuck you are, and how much shit you've overcome both in and outside that octagon. Man, after that first round, i was convinced you can knock any man out on volume alone without the urge to defensively shoot when the fire comes back. What happened with Moraes was a perfect (for him), freak accident. No man in your division can throw a punch at you and have that happen again. Keep remembering which tf you are. Fuck everyones chitter chatter. You're the greatest UFC Bantamweight champion right here, right now. Remember.
Thanks for the content, I know it's a lot to get it done after being on a worldwide stage.
Hey champ fair play to you ! Your doing amazing !
I loveeee how honest u are!!! Hearibg the “gameplan” is sick because we dont hear it often, especially from a champ
NEW YORK STAND UP!!! 🗽🗽🗽 Proud of you Aljo, keep making the city proud!!! We all behind you brodie 🔥🔥🔥
You the man, Aljo!
You did what you needed to do and got the W. To the victor go the spoils💯 Congrats Champ! You earned it!
I knew you could get it done Aljo! Your the bantamweight goat in my eyes.. Great fight!!!
Keep doing your thing famo👏🏿
Came in half way and thought for a moment Henry was sitting next to you lol Best KZhead channel Champ 👏🏻
Huge respect and Love from Georgia brother! ✊🏼🇬🇪 I’m proud like Merab! 🖤 You and Steamrolla helped me to rob Bank! 😂🏦💸💵 But Merab is Real OG 🦾😂
Peace! Congratulations champ. Fantastic win. Excited for the o'mally fight. And still again. Respect from the UK.
Great and smart take on the fight
When Aljo married his wife he said "With that being said, I do"
smashed it mate, well done And congratulations
Thanks brother!
Congrats champ!!!
CONGRATS CHAMP
Funkmaster does it again 🎉
41:56 this is one of the reasons that makes Aljo great, brutally honest and objective assessment of himself. A lot of these fighters, like Henry (his whole team in fact), either cope so hard or are just delusional, thinkin they won, etc, will just plateau and never improve.
Well done my man never in doubt. You have fast became my favourite in the ufc as your humble love from scotland ❤
Me too lol, Scotland loves aljo
Congratulations man
Welcome back champ
I’m enjoying this back and forth even with KZhead videos 😂
Nuff respect champ!!
Intelligent savage bless ya bro
Congrats sir,i like your win
You did it man
Congrats on the win champ. I would've went in on Jersey though.
It's one thing to know what you are doing it's another thing to stop you from doing it. Great break down great attitude great champion.
Congrats man.
It was a damn good fight. Much respect to Sterling for winning. Would love to see a rematch one day. Henry needs to fight merab for that to happen though.
Promise I’ll try to be funny next time champ. Just wanted to chime in and subscribe to your channel as a sign of support. Saw your JRE podcast after the fight and I have to say you totally won me over. Your intelligent, humble and honest. Not much to not like about you. Congrats on your big win. Hope you shut Sugar up once and for all and I would really look forward to you challenging Volk. Stylistically that should be a classic.
Love you man
Great job AJS
Great job Aljo!
Great win..Well deserved..🥊🥋✌️
Great fight champ 💪🏼✅
Great defense, champ! Big support from Texas.
Subscribed... should've done this forever ago...as a fellow Long Islander... RESPECT! Ive meet your boy Al in Patchogue last year...chill dude.
You did A great job Sterling.
Aljamain brother!! the funk is a problem for the bantamweight division. The resume is out of this world as you continue to rack up these dubs. God bless you, Merab, Al and the whole strong island team🙏❤️ What you got going on over there is special and can’t wait to see more success coming your way!
Congratulations
I'm a cejudo fan but aljo gained a new fan here very tough and high iq fighter long reign champ
Champ... and still 🔥💯🏆
let's go Aljo the champ stay's unstoppable, us long time supporters knew cedodo was easy work for you!!!!
Congrats champ.
And still... I'm not surprised 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 . Congrats bro
It doesn't matter if it looks good, as long as it works. You def won and congrats on it!
Domination
Great promo great fight
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ congratulations Champ.
Huge fan of you aljo brother. I was in the prudential center for this. And the treatment 90% of the fans gave you was disrespectful. I wasn’t one of those booing you. I’ve been team aljo since day 1 before you were even ranked in the ufc! Continue to be great and chase greatness brother
sweet win bro humble sean for us
Pumped for the Rum Aljo!
Right when I heard the walk out I switched my pick, energy was next level. CHAMP
That's why Aljo is champ, to be able to step back and realize where he needs to evolve and change at is very mature and shows why he is where he is. Congrats champ
He's the champion because he gets on his hands and knees and abuses the no knees to the grounded opponent rule. He won the belt on his hands and knees and he defends it the same way
Congrats sterling i was hoping Henry would win. But al respect to you and what you accomplished.
love from Saint lucia 🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨, i hope to see you the feather weight champion in the future my caribbean brother 💙
THANK YOU FOR THOSE ELBOW JABS!!! 💯
You definitely put that Funk on Henry😅
And still so happy for u buddy! Merab Vs Henry next?
