Aljo's Reaction To DDP's Win Over Israel Adesanya | Full Breakdown

[@FunkMasterUFC]

I used the wrong word. It was apartheid I was referring too. I’m just getting back from training and was very confused by the comments below. The words slavery and apartheid are and have been used interchangeably in my private conversations. So by definition, the term I used was incorrect. Hope that clears it up for everyone.

[@FedorEmelianenko452]

because 30 years ago there was Apartheid in South Africa, you understand a guy from Nigeria, being frustrated and calling DDP racial slurs? You guys make up anything to make Izzy look better.

[@emmanuelyarbrough9821]

Slavery and apartheid aren’t words that are “interchangeable”. Apartheid had nothing to do with this build up.

[@lb2017bl]

Thanks for clearing it up Aljo. Izzy calling DDP pink pig, the n-word and more is very understandable now, considering Apartheid was in South Africa 30 years ago. Izzy suffered a lot from Apartheid in South Africa. At this point I doubt Aljo knows that South Africa 🇿🇦 is a country and not just the southern part of Africa.

[@moeketsitrevortsibolane1647]

@@FunkMasterUFC the problem is not about you using the wrong word,it's you guys trying to excuse the behavior of Izzy. He is the one that called DDP and N*** word and you guys hardly talk about it. DDP is the only champ that stays and trains in Africa,it's a fact that gets you guys angry for nothing. Izzy is one of my favorite fighters but let's not excuse his loss please,he lost to a great South African fighter...

Then, Izzy was the one who kept calling DDP racist terms like nigga and cracker just because DDP said he'd be the first real, RESIDING, African champion. As in, taking the belt to his current HOME in Africa unlike Usman who lives in America and Izzy who lives in New Zealand.

You are attempting to educate and encouraging your viewers to learn about the history of a country and topic which you have a severe lack of knowledge about. 1. Slavery and apartheid are vastly different things, and your incorrect personal use of the word is no excuse for it being wrong. 2. How would this even relate to Nigerian Israel Adesanya anyway? Slavery was abolished in South Africa 100 years before Nigeria. 3. The topic of skin color and apartheid were never factors in the buildup to this fight.

Listen me and aljo went Uniondale high school it’s not his fault

[@cjbane7547]

I do t think he looked particularly slow maybe a little bit due to age but even he said this was the best he’d ever felt and I’m glad he’s not trying to make excuses again

12 title fights.. Izzy needs to fight a tune up fight. Take on a scary but lower ranked guy. Then it either gives a lower rank a chance or the guy gets starched and we all get reminded how good actually is. He needs a 3 rounder

[@FredrickHoxinville]

I thought Izzy looked amazing compared to both Alex fights and Strickland

[@dilochetty9332]

Problem is, his not gona tak a paycut for that

[@FredrickHoxinville]

I thought Izzy looked amazing compared to his last 4 fights

Aljo you're so humble and wise for your age. Its always a pleasure to listen to you. Keep up the grind man!

[@nnsoedo]

Gosh so interesting how " Alleged people/humans" behave on the internet. So Aljo is not human and cant make a mistake!? A simple correction with kindness is impossible for supposed humans. Its clear he wasnt saying slavery on purpose, and if you do know better - can you not act better and simply take mistakes as an opportunity to kindly educate someone, and leave it at that!?? Or is that too much to ask from Alleged human beings. Dont let this negativity inducing antisocial media platforms program your humanity away. You are still humans and so are the people you are watching and being unkind to!! Great content Aljo..look forward to your fight and build up to a title shot. Hope they dont make you fight all the killers again before getting a shot in this weight

The Problem isn't that he said slavery, the problem is that he was straight up just making shit up that isn't even remotely close to factually correct. If he wanted to misuse and abuse such a sensitive topic of another Country that Izzy isn't even remotely close to being from to try and Defend his racism towards DDP, then he should have at least spoken correctly about the history and not talk about slavery which was abolished in the 1830's in South Africa, 30 years before the USA and without a civil war like the USA needed, or like Nigeria who only banned slavery in the 1940s and to this day has several MILLION slaves in their country. South Africans are rightfully pissed about this.

​@@thenomad47 Your response does not directly deal with the point I am making, but just a diversion away to the point you wish to focus on instead. Which is a shame. My point is :- Be human - people make mistakes - and you can tell it wasn't intentional. To address your diversion :- 1. You mention its a sensitive topic - true but for whom exactly? Whether its slavery, colonialism, apartheid...its all terrible for the GROUPS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO ENDURE IT. Getting mad about the semantics of which type of human monstrosity is just a bit odd to me - as if that somehow more important and causes more pain than the suffering of those peoples who live under it. 2. Also the big issue here that people are weak-spined and lack courage/fortitude (especially MEN) to focus on is that the champion DDP living in South Africa as a white Dutch descendant with the very recent history of apartheid should NOT have used that kind of rhetoric/language (REAL AFRICAN!!!) toward a black indigenous African, knowing full well that apartheid, like racism and other atrocities have MOSTLY morphed from physical and overt (in your face) to covert and psychological and via economic/governmental and discriminatory methods policies. i.e. in South Africa there is still discrimination and economic apartheid - unless you are saying the below are fairy tales:- A. Julius Malema and the EFF party and their resistance to this B. A simple ride on Cape Town Red and Blue tourist bus tours will clearly show you the segregation and how all the most beautiful coastlines and rich farmlands and properties in the hill are owned by whites with brown and black workers working on their land/plantations. Also international white celebrities own many of those seafront apartments, and mainly whites are in those areas. Then you see the shanty towns right next to the luxurious mountain apartments as a stark contrast (and not inhabited by whites), and only there because of the resistance of the blacks despite efforts to remove them C.

@nnsoedo So DDP makes a mistake by using the wrong words, and he is now a racist? Your comment stated that we should be caring and kind towards each other. Do you know the saying practice what you preach?

[@nnsoedo]

​@@phileep4435 Nice try. Im ending the comms as it seems its not fruitful if you cannot stay with the reality of what I type in black and white text, and you and @thenomad47 keep insisting to change topics and focus elsewhere (now making things up like about racist, and that DDP made a mistake - and somehow comparing it to what Aljo said). Even when i address his diversion its still not fruitful. Wishing you the best.

Aljo gonna do Movsar like Belal did Brady
