[@youngclueless7364]

I like Belal, He’s a nice dude who gets unnecessary hate. I support him, but he manages to make almost every fight a chore to get through.

How is DC not on this list? Sure he gets the love now. But at the time when his rivalry with Jon was on, people hated on him. Jon was coked out, had charges on him, had ped stuff and yet we as fans choose to boo on a guy who had overcome nothing but adversities and still choose to be a great human being. Losing a daughter, not making it into Olympics because of a kidney failure. Every bad thing happened to him. And yet we choose to cheer on the exact opposite of a good human. 😅

Rhonda is the most warranted one on this list. In my opinion it's because she did so much, because she accomplished so much, which in turn made her represent so much of this so often misrepresented sport that we all love so much. And at the first sign of resistance she snapped like a twig. She knowingly and willingly became an ambassador of our sport and when the time came, she let us all down.

People shouldn’t go out of their way to express hatred towards Belal, but he certainly doesn’t do himself any favors in or out of the cage. If we just look at his most recent fight in the presser he mocked the crowd and state he was fighting in and then in the cage took an overworked and injured fan-favorite Burns five full rounds of abuse without a hint of a finish. Tbh I think he’s somewhat trying to be a heel nowadays which is probably his best option given the opinion on him already.

[@CelticWolfsBane]

It was because of UFC 259 when Aljo turned heel after he won the belt via DQ. At first, he said he didn't want to win the belt that way but then embraced a heel of sorts, and now everyone hates him because of the TJ and Yan win. Aljo is overhated because he's kept winning. I understand the wins over TJ and Yan and the cringe villain role he's doing it to keep his name in the fight business sure it can be a bit of a nuisance to deal with but I genuinely don't think he deserves the hate. But at the end of the day, Aljo is still the champion, and no one else can change the result, and we will have to see what happens after UFC 292.

Then his bodyguard Merab beats all the possible contenders. He’s a victim of circumstance but he doesn’t help himself.

I just don’t get the hate for him, and especially with the teasing him that made him cry after practice. Sucks to see him doing slap fighting for crumbs, hope he has stuff going on the side

[@tylergrammer5022]

its the facial hair i think

[@MistaTofMaine]

He is like an average rural guy from Maine, he likes hunting and fishing, just he was like 6'8 and 265+ pounds. That may be why media never liked him as far as the mic he just a normal guy. From what I can figure he is a great guy but not the best with money. I say this because I've never heard anything bad about him but the idea he couldn't muster up $10k for his arm surgery makes me think he either didn't save money or had bad advice he followed.

[@tylergrammer5022]

@@MistaTofMaine his size is probably part of it because he could rely on it and not be technically good. man wasnt even shredded or anything, just large. and still got beat up by little ass Randy Couture. I feel like hes generally more mocked and disregarded, than hated and disrespected.

[@rayburnsonier3458]

I think Sam Alvey is a legend for sticking around as long as he did. Anderson Silva and BJ Penn had long losing streaks but they were former LEGENDS. What has Alvey done? He is a master of negotiations.

[@Werdumed]

Aljo is the exception, he deserves everything he gets and I wouldn't feel bad about it. I also don't think Sam was getting hate, it was a running joke for us, none of that was real

[@PotentSenzu]

Why does aljo deserve the hate?

This expression, with its vivid image of a baby being tossed out with a stream of dirty water, is probably translated from a German proverb, Das Kind mit dem Bade ausschütten (“Pour the baby out with the bath”). It was first recorded in English in 1853 by Thomas Carlyle, who translated many works from German.

[@ls1dk]

First 😂 Never remember rockhold showing class the first fight, good call. And Belal gets hate cause he acts like he’s destroying people left and right with K.O’s, when in reality, he’s dry humping them to decision.

[@benedictbae9689]

belal a cool guy man, he's very technical like leon edwards. he doesn't deserve the hate

[@JuanSanchez-fq7kl]

Honestly I just think belal hate is just xenophobia. That guy yelling usa in the crowd when commentary were like belal is from Chicago is certified example of just hating someone from where they are

[@robertmccabe1919]

Not even close, nobody brings his race into talking shit about him. He just a wack fighter with a wack personality

[@jonnysmith5998]

I think the mythical fighter of Job Secuirtt Sam Alvey was just more of a meme than anything, I don’t recall seeing much if any hate on the guy.

[@sbrammer131]

Colby Covington is a nice guy in person. He’s honestly one of the coolest fighters I’ve seen in person, and probably one of the only ones. When I seen him at the gym, he will take pictures of fans in a middle of his workouts. Like that’s a definition of a kind guy. Colby even admits that all that persona is for TV because he was once called a boring fighter.

[@RoscoePro]

My biggest issue with Aljo, and maybe I'm wrong and/or misremembering, when he won the belt from Yan- he looked like he was recovering from the knee fairly well and possibly would've been able to continue the fight. Then, I'm fairly certain he asked one of the doctors "If I'm unable to continue, do I win the belt?" to which the answer was yes, and then shortly after, the fight was called off. Again, maybe I misheard or am misremembering, but I recall something along those lines happening, along with everyone I watched the fight with.

[@JaddiRooGaming]

That's what Sanchez said when he took an illegal knee. Aljo was accused of milking the knee when it "didn't do damage".

[@Captain_Insano_nomercy]

Aljo was one of the guys who really earned it tbh

[@Hache.98]

Belal saying he would beat Leon easily when he was getting 10-8’d is what made me dislike him, apart from being so cringe

[@huntermoreno7805]

Belal shoots himself in the foot every time he speaks. He’s also said racist, controversial things in the past.

[@loismylane]

the luke rockhold story was complete bias. Mike shook his hand after the KO, but then luke disrespected him and refused to shake his hand a second time after that

[@joshdudeguy2830]

Origin of the baby with the bathwater saying: In medieval times, baths were more of a once a year kind of thing. The man of the house went first, then the oldest son, and so on until the woman and the baby of the family. By the time it got to the baby's turn, the water was likely no longer water. It was more like mud soup. So don't accidentally throw the baby out with the bathwater that you can't see through.

[@Dreas_Diaz88]

Weak list brotha man . Come on now 🥴

[@malchelo-7627]

Aljo is treated the way he deserves. He threw the belt down and then picked it back up.

[@moneymarc7708]

So we’re not going to talk about the REAL reason mma fans disrespect Woodley, Francis, Aljo, Usman

[@tylerrobbins8311]

😂 if you're trying to make it about race explain the universal love and respect of Lewis, DJ, Silva, DC, Johnson.

[@estebanlopez3207]

Woodley is cool. Francis hurt the sport for greed. Aljo is circumstance. Usman cheated a bunch I his fights and fakes fouls. Don't be a victim.

[@trevor1169]

I think its good MMA on point didnt bring up that reason in this video, but that they hopefully talk about it fully in a dedicated video for the subject. Even though MMA is one of the least racist sports, its still there. Just a too heavy subject for a video like this

Ngannou kinda epitomizes the expression "The difference between genius and insanity is measured only by success" He took an objectively massive risk. Had it not worked out then hes a forever punchline... but it did work out, so hes a mastermind. Funny how that works.

[@jjenk911]

Colby might be hated on, but I feel he'll be Welterweight Champion by the end of the year or sometime next year.

Throwing the baby out with the bath water refers to the fact that before running water was commonplace you filled a bathtub (like a wooden tub) with water and everyone would take turns using it. Generally this would go dad first, then mom, then the kids oldest to youngest. The baby would be bathed last, after which you throw out the water, so make sure to take the baby out of the tub first...

[@MrTrueCaller619]

Luke is a great person who just happens to lose his confort when in a crowded place .
