- We look at behind the scenes footage from the new Roku UFC documentary of Aljamain Sterling being manipulated into accepting the Sean O'Malley fight by the UFC, Hunter Campell & Dana White. They manipulated & gaslit Sterling into accepting a fight at a massive disadvantage at UFC 292 & Aljo's manager did nothing.

The UFC should be ashamed of themselves for essentially trying to rig fights against fighters who don't make them enough money
The UFC tried to do that with DDP, yet again rushing him into a fight with Adesanya.
We all know omalley isn't a draw... idk why aljo took the fight hurt... meanwhile Jon jones can cancel ppvs and he a "goat"... khabib beat a house salesman for his title... aljo got done dirty when he did what they asked while others don't do anythin worth watchin like omalley
Meh, I dont think they feel shame. This is a business of Prize Fighters. I'm assuming they're pussies arnt hurting that much thay they feel shame lol. Imagine a Prize Fighter Business, that wants to book popular Champions over Champions that don't put asses in seats. Lol. It's almost like they WANTED the popular guy to win!! Woah!! 😂😂😂
Starting to feel more like Activism than Fight Commentary.
There is no real evidence UFC did this to give O'Malley an advantage because you missed out some important details.
-If you look back you will see UFC had only ONE main event worthy fight for Boston.There was no other main event worthy fight available,of course UFC tries to make happen the only fight they have .This was to save the Boston ppv and not to give a certain fighter an advantage(or at least this could be the reason as well)
-You didn't mention O'malley was injured too,he had a serious rib injury,here it is POSSIBLE UFC would have tried the same thing to convince him to fight(because this fight was the only hope to have a main event for Boston)as they did with Sterling(in the case it would have been necessary to convince Sean to take the fight).
-Your are acting like the fight Annauncement was a big suprise but keep in mind not the UFC made this fight(o.k maybe they set it up with bringing O'Malley in the Octagon)but the fighters agreed (after Sterling vs Cejudo still in the octagon)both to fight each other and Sterling was the one who said (in the Octagon after his fight) to O'Malley "i want to fight you in septembre" or something like that.He was the one who was willing to have a quick turnaround(o.k Boston was 3 weeks earlier but still)in the first place.
So it wasn't Sterling didn't agree to fight O,Malley and it wasn't Sterling didn't agree to have a quick turnaround and both fighters agreed in the octagon to fight each other so it wasn't the badest thing from the UFC to assume they could announce this fight after both fighters agreed to fight each other soon(of course it would have been better to talk with both fighters before)
I can't see we have 100 percent proof here UFC did this all to give Sean an advantage for his fight with Sterling.
You can't only pick some clips and jump to conclusion you have to consider all important details.
Bro this is not new watch dana s interaction with his fighters when the ufc was ramping up the issue with ortiz brothers and shyts dana s conversation on jones not wanting to fight etc about cyborg this is light jab bro
Aljo has to fight every three months, meanwhile Stipe can wait 3 years and fight for the title…
Now if omalley fighting in December 9-10 months off is crazy
Gotta blame aljo and his camp. I would not have fought he's soft for that..
@@Smithdantzler193
🤡
@@Smithdantzler193 Honestly it worked out for him, He cemented his legacy as an all time great in the Bantamweight division and now he is giving Merab a chance to win the belt. Now hes coming off a win in a new division while he isn't cutting as much weight in featherweight.
@@lilPerc30 yep aljo pressed to fight asap, but our sweetheart omalley, take as much time as you need, fight when youre ready.

Especially Mr. Buttface. (Hunter)

He's defending against Marab in September you casual.
Sean is active stop it
He said in December on MacLife interview a few days ago. @AwareWolfOnWheels
@@krisf4969 Take your word for it, I don't watch shit teir channels named after that twat. It was previously confirmed for September, but Dana gonna Dana when it comes to messing with cards.
@@AwareWolfOnWheelsin december casual😂
This is great journalism, Joey. Dana White loves treating the UFC like the WWE and then gaslighting us into believing that he is running a perfectly fair and legitimate sport. What was done to Aljo has probably been happening for decades.
Look up what they did to Mark Hunt. Hunt threatened to beat the s*^t out of dana on social media and he wasn't in the wrong.
Ufc really did Aljo dirty. This documentary wasn't needed for us fans to realise what they did to him.
Dana, Bruce Campbell and the rest of the UFC matchmakers give me bully vibes.
Come on, this ain't nothing new to the UFC, it dates back to the days when the Fertitta brothers ran things. Or you want a more recent example, look how the situation degenerated between the UFC brass and Francis back in 2021. Same tactics.
Karma for Oscar night. Y’all just thought that was never gonna go unpunished is hilarious
@@Issacandjacob weird take
that’s what u get when u fake an injury to win a belt and hold up the division with your boyfriend
I can see why Ngannou represented himself. Who needs a manager taking 10% and not fighting for you?
Don’t strip jones for a year and a half and have aspinal defend an interim belt but put up an interim belt right after aljo defends wild favoritism
It also explains why they didn't give him the rematch
On a full camp it's very possible that Aljo could beat Sean but they can't give him that opportunity
Why are people surprised Dana and UFC value money above fairness?
Seems about normal to me.
It’s weird when people say this..just because it’s expected horrible behavior doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be pointed out.
@@beckyg.9087 I concur. If i understood correctly. Just not surprised in the slightest
What's funny is Aljo said this after the fight and everyone just laughed at him and said he was coping.
Thank you like omally didn't just rest from December-aug lol
This man went on a 3-4 fight win streak as the Bantamweight champ, defended against 3 former champions and didn’t get an immediate rematch against Sean. It’s all a popularity contest nowadays and business. They have ZERO integrity.
I blame his manager. Aljo should finish with him and get a manager that puts him first. You sign on the dotted line that's it, you gotta show up. His manager should've been like Aljo F it, don't take the fight, let them do there interim at least you can recover properly. That fight was coming either way.
There appears to be something of a closed shop. You go with a UFC approved manager or you don't get a contract. And what makes a manager UFC approved? Well... we just saw it. Then if you got a contract and managed to get a new manager (let's pretend), they probably will run your contract down on badly paid prelims and then see ya.
Tim Simpson is an interesting player, here. Leon, Max and Jiri's manager. Moved from a big agency to his own set up, with a deliberately small client list. He seems to do right by his fighters... be curious, if that is fully true, why he would be allowed. Though they were all in the UFC before he started his own management company.
Yes his manager should have advised him to not take the fight if he's injured. But Aljo signed on the bottom line too. Let them do their Interim Candy belts who cares
Go Joey, keep exposing them. One of the best mma channels.
It's par for the course in the world of deception/domination/winning, which anyone watching these fights is agreeing to. Nothing is really being exposed, except the incredulity of people like you because you're either in denial or you don't know the bigger picture at play with this stuff.
Complaining about deception and unfairness taking place on the world stage (such as big UFC events) is like complaining about the chameleon hiding from the insect, or complaining about the snake hiding in the grass.
The monster doesn't care that you complain about how it operates, as long as you still engage with it by participating in what it offers. In this case, o malley being used to push certain things onto a niche of the younger generation who otherwise wouldn't have been as directly exposed to it, in order to accelerate the agenda
Yeah Joey was 💯 speaking facts .
The way the UFC treats some of the fighter so different than others is shady
This is going to be a fucking heater
On a positive note Aljo looked like a beast at 145..I think he might’ve been cutting too much weight to get down to 135
his walk around weight is 176.
hugging a journeyman for 3 rounds, wow what a "beast" 🤣🤣
@@ColdDrink25 Wrestling isn't easy....
@@ColdDrink25That fight was complete domination. He only got hit like one time. You are clearly a hater.
@@mr.morris_8502 you are correct, i absolutely hate him and everything he stands for
love aljo
only heard good things about the dude behind the scenes. Dana and co. are treacherous!
The UFC is slowly morphing into the WWE smh
It’s been the WWE for some time now
Always has been
who cares it’s all entertainment
@@mosthatedhunterReal combat sports fans. Leave the wwe shit in elementary school
agree
MMA fans have treated Aljo so wrong for so long so the masses won’t even care but he deserves better than this smh.
Letting Sean skip an entire division after poking pedro in the eyes is the only OPPORTUNITY givin by UFC. UFC took all Aljos opportunities away on this fight.
Facts
Aljo won a belt by oscar worthy acting so it's just fair
@gyp3871 an ILLEGAL knee is worse than being dramatic. It's 100% Yans fault he lost that belt. Crazy how yall skip over the the details and regurgitate narratives.
@@snaglord9997then wins the rematch lol
@@snaglord9997doesn’t change the fact aljo faked being too hurt to continue and is a coward in most people’s eyes
Aljo has been getting this disrespect since the Yan rematch. Hes proved hes a champ meanwhile the ufc is taking every opportunity to give PED sean a layup
UFC tried to do the same thing with Dricus Du Plessis after he beat Robert Whittaker, they wanted to force a 8 week turn around against Isreal Adesanya.
Glad Strickland beat him
If ddp was really that guy he would have fought izzy. And actually beat strickland
@@weskoas if izzy was that guy he wouldn't have been dog walked by strickland
@@ChimpRevolution that's the problem with people like u who suffer from recency bias. Yall forget izzy is that guy. One of the most active champions we've had in years. Now look at the champions. Fight once a year if that.
@weskoas mackachev literally has been fairly active strickland fought literally months after he won the title. Izzy was handed a lot of close decisions because UFC likes him let's not pretend that he didn't lose to Whitaker in the rematch. Not to mention his boring fights like with Jared cannoineer where there was memes about them just standing there not throwing a punch. If hw was that guy like you claim he would of engaged and show levels to cannoneer but he can't do anything besides counter.
Yet they wanted us to believe Aljo was the bad guy in all of this *smh*
This is what ufc do jus look at the end of tyron woodley ufc run
@@jonnycarter46he killed his own career
Reminiscent of how they treated DJ, another dominant champ. History repeats itself
Reaching
Sterling wasn't dominant. Lol. Got gifted a belt, hugged his way through a rematch, fought a disabled guy with one arm, fought a semi-retired 3' tall guy coming off a 2+ year layoff. Where's the dominance?
@@ImLaughingAtYou exactly
@@ImLaughingAtYou to be fair most of that wasn't his fault
The fact aljo did not receive a immediate rematch after being a long reigning champion like 99% of all champions do when they lose the title tells you everything you need to know about the ufc feelings towards aljo
Idk if it's the fact that they dislike Aljo?! You think it's personal? I mean it's business imo. The dude doesn't put asses in seats. He isn't super popular, he has always had issues connecting with the fans. Does it not stand to reason that they are in the business of making money?! And that it may not be personal? Serious question..
Because Aljo wasn't a long reigning champ lol 2 and half title defenses isn't long reiging you clown. Even if you count the second Yan fight as a defense that still means Aljo only defended 3 times in Yan, TJ and Cejudo...and Aljo waited a fucking year after the dq win to defend the belt but nobody mentions that.
thats exactly what it is because if he made them big money they wouldn't treat him like a nobody
I agree, but that's why you have to fight 2x the fights if you just dont speak English 😅
Doesnt make them right for doing it@@marksutherlandjr.2121
i mean oliveria didnt get one either tbf. its more that immediate title shots are just given to the ufcs favorites like izzy
I Stand With Aljo. That was actually my old username after he got the DQ win. I Still Stand With him. This game is dirty.
Coping race fan.
Bro, thank you for making this video. The mob style manipulation was so heavy-handed. Basically it was “it would be a shame if something were to happen to your UFC roster spot.“
When I said the UFC broke Jose Aldo Mentally for 6 straight months before the McGregor fight, everyone was calling me crazy. This shit is what they do when they don't want some fighters to be champions.
That's why I respect a lot fighters like Dricus, DJ or Woodley in his time, when they don't let themselves being forced into fights
Facts man this literally happens to everyone who doesn’t play by their rules it’s almost comical at this point. Fighter doesn’t play by their rules and incoming Dana says they are scared to fight narrative lol over and over again. Dana praises Jon Jones but remember how quick he turned on him when Jon didn’t want to take that quick replacement fight against Chael Sonnen when Dan Henderson was out of the bout. Even when Jon vs Ngannou was being talked about and Jon simply wanted to be paid fairly, Dana immediately went to the “he’s scared” narrative and then ironically did the same thing to Ngannou lol smh I miss Ngannou but I’m glad he left them the way he did. I’ll still never forget how bad Cris Cyborg was treated as well during her time in the UFC it was almost heartbreaking.
I remember seeing a clip of O’Malley saying that fighting every 4 months is how it should work for a champion to justify his short notice fight against Aljo only for him to fight 2 times a year as champ and one of those times was against a cherry picked opponent we’d all knew he’d beat.
MMA media could be replaced with middle schoolers.
Why not make O’Malley fight Merab on a quick turnaround then? They are giving Sean every opportunity to recover and prepare for Merab. It is blatant at this point the UFC has their agenda and who they want to be their “superstars”. They are chasing another mcgregor so bad they are tainting the sport.
That manager is Tiki Ghosn. He actually has a pretty decent track record as a manager among happy clients. The fact that he's staring at the floor during this does not mean he doesn't care. I've been in business my entire life and when doing negotiations and someone else is talking, I tend to look at the floor and listen because it allows me to hear everything clearer and not be distracted, and it allows everyone else to have the floor and express both sides. Once everything is said and done and everyone has said their piece, I'd advise my clients in private and see what they'd like to do before I begin negotiating for someone and fighting a battle that they may not want to be fought. We don't know the entire situation here so we can't make such blatant, unfair assumptions. Some meetings are about manager negotiations and some meetings are not. No contracts had to be signed on the spot in that meeting, and typically there's a lot of talking and mulling things over before they send you a contract. I don't disagree with the gaslighting or methods used to coerce fighters into taking fights at a disadvantage, but it would be unfair to sling mud in the direction of someone undeserving without all of the facts and information. Aljo has never come out and said that his manager wronged him. His gripe is only with the ufc.
He literally said his teammates and manager were putting pressure on him to fight
Not a good look on Dana and Hunter
so how long before the not good look will effect them you think ?
@@ckennedy109637never hahaha these dudes can get away with murder lol
These two have been dirtbags for years this is nothing new
What ever is? But they have enough power and sycophants behind them the likelihood of anything changing is nil.
Hunter Campbell is a sociopath
Dana mad at Aljo for saying he doesn't wanna fight injured but no comments for Suga giving his title shot to Henry before him because HE DIDNT WANNA FIGHT!
So if John Jones is so good then he should’ve fought stipe with that pec injury
What ??? He was literally told by the doctor he couldn’t fight. You realize fighters have to be cleared to fight right ?
the ufc did aljo dirty.. if sean was or had any type of man in him he would allowed aljo to recover properly and allow aljo to be 100 percent fit..... i hate that they didnt give aljo a proper chance... i like this video, which is unusual for me to like your videos because we have diff political views but glad someone had to say it.. thanks
he need to fire his manager
but omalley isnt a draw, because his fan base steal the fights anyways. aljo was about to become the greatest bantamweight in history, with another title defence. but the ufc had to stack the deck against him. he should have really had fair chance to win the fight... sean will never be a star... he hasnt got any stage presence.. ok he has a social media following but he isnt someone your gonna want to spend 90 dollars on a ppv... never will he be a draw, never
UFC needs superstars, that's all. Sterling is not superstar material, but O'Malley is.
can’t believe no one else is talking about this…
Because aljo is a complainer
Imagine this happened to sean strickland. You will never hear the end of it by his fan base. They still hounding ddp every day. Will they have that same energy for aljo ? Nope!
it did happen to strickland though. Dude fought izzy in Australia 2 months after having to fight someone unranked
@@shrekshrek8307which is why he has fans that push for him to get the title fight…
@@shrekshrek8307 thats a title fight vs top 2 middleweight of all time lol.... its a win win fight nothing to lose. He didn't even earn that fight. Stop the dumb comparison.
@shrekshrek8307 that's not what in saying. My point is when it comes to strickland his fans gwy outraged. But when it comes to aljo it's all crickets.
They're all gay for Sean Strickland that is why.
Aljo should've sat on the title for two years like Jones.
he can't as u see in the docu they were literally forcing him
He wouldn't have income
@@HonestFred he already got payed at that he can just sit back he already fed and the belt it's hunter and Dana they just want their feminist fans to come around to ufc all about money
@@thangsuut3176 What I mean is they would do to him similar how they did to Nygano. Have him to a year or so without a fight. These guys only get paid when they fight and this is how the USA use their leverage
He would've been stripped. He didn't have the Dana privilege likes Jones has
Jesse on Fire should take notes on how to present MMA content and not self aggrandize the whole time
He really does do that doesn't he 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
yeah these/those 2 guys are basically oil & water. Jesse defo wants to be the oil guy cause he's so on fire and works w/ the dude who invented fire
Ufc is an entertainment business masquerading as a serious sport. And they alternate between the two depending on whats more convenient at the moment. Thats where all of this bs stems from. Fans expect meritocracy, ufc wants to make the most amount of money. So they make all these moves like bmf belts, giving their favorite fighters huge jumps up the rankings etc and just spin it during press conferences talking to their lap dog journalists. Dana has contradicted himself more times than I can count. It is what it is I guess, but frankly after 6+ years of watching every ufc event I am now becoming less and less invested.
Not to mention horrific judging and refing mistakes, that somehow often seem to benefit the ufc.
Well said. I'd have a lot more respect for Dana and Hunter if they just said our job is to make the most amount of money possible for our owners and to do it we screw over our ighters
@@mtg1470 Yeah thats the thing, they say "its a business" and "its a sport" depending on their agenda. Can you imagine NBA scheming to put on whatever match they feel will be watched the most? That's not how a sport should operate. And I get it to a point, its their responsibility to the shareholders, they may feel its whats the best for the company's growth blablabla. Just be a little more subtle about it. It feels like recently they really don't care anymore if they insult fans' intelligence with some of these moves, not to mention the fighters.
I was never a big Aljo fan, but this is clear manipulation from the UFC specifically Dana White and Hunter Campbell to prop up their next cash cow. I agree with your analysis Joey, it’s spot on.
I needed this right now
I think Joey actually cried when aljo lost and was the real life meme of the woman crying and pointing at the cat 😂
There is something that the ufc doesn't like about Aljo and I don't know what it is. Omalley eye pokes and kicks Pedro's minos balls and gets a no contest and immediately gets a contender fight against Yan. Loses and they rob Yan and give it to Sean and just immediately decide Sean gets a title shot. Coming off of CAUSING a no contest, and a robbery of a win. Clear favoritism. Sean has defended the belt once since he got it. Aljo defended the belt 3 times by now.
Totally agree Joey, and let's not forget the fight stoppage was super suspect. Look at the difference between the Izzy stoppage and the Aljo stoppage.... The UFC is totally suspect
Yeah he wasn’t finished he was still moving and coherent he wasn’t out on his feet or knocked out at all. Had he went out it would be different but it wasn’t over on the ground.
Worse than suspect. Downright grimy.
Yeah, totally suspect. 11 unanswered significant strikes stoppage, calm down Mario.
MARC GODDARD was the referee for both fights!
@@AwareWolfOnWheelsplease stop! 11 unanswered strikes!? Aljamain was still moving, Marc had assignment.
This was a wholesome take from Joey.
Great video. Much appreciated for shining light on this.
Did you just say Petr Yan was robbed in the O'Malley fight? Real journalism doesn't pick sides.
The ufc fans did aljo dirty hating on him which gave the ufc the opportunity to do this
So that’s why aljo never got a rematch also, honestly I don’t care how much I enjoy mma. Once all these guys are gone and it’s just the Sean o mally types going 50k buys, I’m done with the sport. hopefully it’ll die off and then maybe we can go back to it being a sport, not wwe
Love you break down what others can’t see. Warms my heart sincerely.
It's like why pay some one to be a manager if they just sit there and you do all the work yourself
They did Aljo so dirty and many other fighters
I despise when people reach for racism, but at this point ALJO could literally cry racism. and I would not mind it one bit. BAHAHAHHA They honestly take his KINDNESS FOR WEAKNESS (or dumbness, Hunter was legit abusing him in that convo, felt like some SLAVE shit. Very uncomfortable to witness).
The truth is, GOOD.NICE GUYS FINISH LAST..... Or however the quote goes... Aljo, is genuinely a nice guy, and that can come off as boring/ uninteresting to his haters .Haters gonna hate though... and as far as the internet goes, let's just say it[s not a place to look for EMPATHY. I feel that hating on Aljo, just became hype, and majority of people are just trolling at this point. The given fan bases of his opponents obviously play a big factor as well.
I always loved Aljo, as he was always sincere and a mfn BACK PACK.
Just horrible, hope he gets a new manager/ teammates ( Prob won't matter. :[) ?! Like WTF yall don;t give a shit about him and it is CLEAR as day... He needs to have a "GET OUT" moment!!
@MMAJOEYC Just know that I too empathize with him and that I agree with your sentiment,
PS YALL: NICE GUYS DON'T ACTUALLY FIN. last IRL. Stay nice out there boys!
@@jesuslettuce lol stoppp it!!

@@billyin4c514 nah you are reaching. YOU COULD SEE HIS ACTUAL FEELING ABOUT THAT IN AND OUT OF THE RING THAT NIGHT. SO TRY AGAIN. haah
Yeah this has nothing to do with racism since Jon Jones is the most protected fighter in the UFC. My going theory is Dana hated how he won the title by DQ and his style and personalitt aren't that entertaining.
I do bjj and have a rib strain and I barely train at all I can’t imagine what Aljo has to deal with
Hunter Campbell is going to ruin the UFC. I have always said this .
O’Malley was supposed to be the big cash cow, but instead is careful about picking fights he knows he can win. He isn’t a real champ, fighting the number 6 or 7 as his first and only title defense because he didn’t want to be a one and done. He is good, but he can be beat and he knows it. His personality is super cringe cause all he cares about is trying to look cool. He is the epitome of what is wrong with Dana and UFC.
Should of just called the video "I'm a salty O'Malley hater"
Just say you didn’t actually watch the video
Facts! He held in his tears well
Very nice journalism Joe...
90% of these comments basically say, I have no clue but feelings.
This is the best video you have ever done! Bravo! Great research
Been saying this about this specific situation since the beginning. The doc only further solidified my thoughts

good topic and coverage.
Excellent video, takes us behind the scenes to see how the sausage is made. I also agree that if this is what they are willing to show us, what the hell is going on that they don’t want us to know about???😬
Tremendous work Joey! You have quickly become my most favorite and most trusted news source for all things UFC.
this channel deserves more subscribers than guru, weasle and kiiyon combined. joey actually stands for something in this space, while other channels just try to pander to braindead mma fans.
Well said 💯
*Didnt aljo in 2020/21 multiple times say he was injured then post hard training footage and didnt he pull out over and over doing the same thing too, thats why Dana was done with his bullshit, come on guys why are we acting like this did not happen*
Plus the Oscar nominee performance against Yan. Dudes exhibits the condition of perpetual victim complex .
@@JesusSavesandRomeEnslaves Yes like context was needed to understand this situation, now funny enough Aljo on his own channel said this injury would not have affected the outcome of the fight and i was shocked when i heard that. So i give him full props for owning up to that cause 99.9% of coping fans won't admit a injury does not make up for being open and getting caught with a punch.
And has he even had surgery to remedy these injuries since the loss? Can't find any info stating he has.
@@Superkwaji mightve been something that did not require surgery just pt.
@@erikbritz8095 not bad enough to need surgery not bad enough to pull out of the fight. No sympathy for aljo. A man should take responsibility for his decisions.
Great lighting, Joey!
Thank you Joey for making this video ❤️
So widdle pwecious Aljo was TOO injured to accept a fight 3 months after his last one, but he wasnt so injured that he couldn't take 8 months to recover before signing a contract to then take a fight in 3 months?
AWWWWW !!!
Poor Aljo & Joey aren't living in an IDEAL WORLD !!!
AWWWW !!!
Sounds like Sterling was trying to hold the title hostage on his terms & the UFC showed him that they have played that game before.
Aljo shot himself on the foot.
I just can't understand why he had to change the game plan and strike with the best striker in UFC just to please a bunch of fans who were all cheering against him???
He gave away his belt cheaply.
Meanwhile they are giving O'Malley 14 months off for maybe fighting Merab. I doubt O'Malley even takes the Merab fight.
And after all that, they didnt give him the rematch
OMallet vs Yan was 100% robbery
LMAO smoke more copium
Bro MMA Joey first vid im seeing of u. I want to say that when you pause and point out undeniable facts about people and analyze the nuance, body posture, expression… brilliant bro great insight
He chose to fight. They told him he didn’t have to. He’s a grown ass man.
Justin vs khabib , strickland vs costa , Charles vs islam , Harrison vs holm just to name a few
Also Izzy vs Dricus, Dricus was supposed fight Izzy after beating Whittaker whilst Izzy was supposed to get a easy win off Sean but Strickland won and took the belt then Dricus took it and now they fight again
I dont have roku, anyone has a website i could watch it on?
good video JOEY maMan ❤️
You're not wrong, but I have little sympathy for Aljo for two reasons:
1) Three months isn't a totally unreasonable turnaround, it's not as though they asked him to fight two weeks later. One month to rest and heal, two months to train. If that's not enough time to make weight then you're either not living the lifestyle of a professional athlete or you're in the wrong weight class.
2) He didn't deserve to become champion in the first place. And what was the first thing he did after being gifted the belt? Take a year off to get surgery, further holding up the division. If he's not in the UFC's good books it's not hard to see why.
He def deserved champ status. He beat yam in a rematch. The real question is how tf did Sean get the win over yan!!!
To answer the question above^ damage. Yan was split open and beat up. Sean won 2 rounds by damage. If he didn't split him open he would have lost 2 1 but he won 2 1 bc of damage
@@sarka11594 idk…I felt the takedowns and ground control was enough to edge it out.
Dnn86 your not taking into consideration a champ who has to cut a lot a weight and go through a grueling training camp.. and mind u he has to spend that 1st month to heal and recover. So he not even training for omalley style.. that's a complete disadvantage.. the mental drain on a fighter through a regular training camp is tough imagine having to do that back to back.. every fighter talks about how weight cutting sucks... You saying u have little sympathy is disrespectful.... They set aljo up because they wanted Yan champ.. he beat him in the rematch fair. And let's be honest that 2nd Rd was a 10-8.. mind u omally fought Yan in December and got to prepare for aljo all the way until August
After he fought a one armed TJ and took no damage they tried to get him to fight Henry in March and then April before finally May. He ended up with 15 weeks for Sean but that was extra time he lost they weren't going to miss an opportunity to have an Irish last name headline Boston.
Thank you MMA JOEY for revealing this type coersment and favoritism that goes on in these back room deals. I’ve always suspected that this was going on but had no proof.
Dana gave Woodley the same treatment. Despite Woodley continuously winning fights, his aggression towards Woodley grew. And when Woodley said something about it, nobody believed him and called him a crybaby.
Casuals and fanboys always call anything that these athletes say is a "cope", it's spoken like a true geek who has never done anything athletic in their life. They call injuries cope, family deaths cope, being coerced by the ufc a cope. Not every thing is an excuse of "cOpE" and that is what these keyboard warrior nerds need to get thru their numbskulls
Started popping up on my feed, now I'm subbed good content bro
You’ve come a long way burn your videos are good
Great video Joey👍
Great video Joey...best on the net for mma discussion...hands down
When I first started the video, I thought your mouth had a bowtie.
Looks like Aljo needs a new manager
Where can I watch this documentary?
It’s on Roku TV. I linked it in the description
Like the new camera angle set up🔥👊💯
Same org that is making Aspinall defend an interim belt to protect Jon Jones lmao. mma is sick but ufc is a joke sometimes.
Good reporting Joey!
If Aljo came out and flatlined O’Malley he damn sure would have ingratiated himself with the MMA community and silenced a lot of his critics.
This cat is spitting. Followed. Subscribed. Liked. Shared.
Shows you how strong khabib was in his conviction. These people mustve tried their absolute best to try to get him to fight conor, and he still said F your money.
Fact is, people with the belt have a habit of taking layoffs, swerving guys, etc. so the ufc has to apply some pressure to keep the devisions moving. 2) 3 months is a perfectly legitimate time frame between fights. Youre acting like they put a gun to his head and forced him to fight in a week. 3) im sure he was adequately paid to take that fight. End of the day the UFC is a business- of course its going to have wants and needs. So long as everyones adequately compensated, they can make virtually anything they want, happen. 4) a longer layoff doesn't play to Seans favor. Active fighters do better. So that whole point there falls apart. Not to even mention that training camps are grueling and typically last about 3 months at the high end, regardless of how long a certain fighters layoff is. Assuming seans been not only in camp, but also specifically actively training for aljo for some 8 straight months is wildly uneducated.
Youre acting like they held him at gunpoint and forced him into the cage with a broken leg and 0 pay lol. Sorry but this video was pretty diabolical. Respecfully.
