Aljo's Reaction To INSANE War Between Pereira And Rountree!!

[@James-712]

Magomed Ankalaev will turn into Mario Bautista when fighting Alex Pereira

[@american1207]

You're really comparing Periera's TDD to Aldos'?

[@James-712]

@american1207 Magomed isn't a wrestler lol. Barely even finishes his takedowns

[@american1207]

​@James-712 and Periera has no grappling. You're comparing him to Jose Aldo? That guy has better TDD than Islam. Izzy got periera on his back. But he's going to defend takedowns against the guy who easily outgrappled Jan who easily outgrappled periera? What are you basing his TDD on? KOing Jiri?

[@american1207]

​@@James-712 30% TD accuracy. That's pretty good for a striker

[@James-712]

@american1207 Every round starts on the feet. Ankalaev will be diving for the legs immediately. Fighting like the pu**y he is. Like a chicken he tapped to paul Craig. Ank only outgrapples bums like Smith and blachowicz, who had trash defensive grappling and got embarrassed by Glover. Pereira is a Phenom athlete he can pick up things faster than the regular person. Pereira by Guillotine choke round 3

[@matheuscmiranda]

How long will they push this story that Ankalaev is a top wrestler? The guy has terrible numbers in attempts and success in takedowns, his stand-up fight is below everyone Alex has faced in the world in the category. Poatan moves up to heavyweight, gets that belt and ends his career as GOAT.

[@american1207]

He is a top wrestler in that division. Who's outgrappling him? More KOs in the ufc than Hill and Jiri, 3x as many ufc wins as Jiri. What are you basing any of your statements off of?

[@matheuscmiranda]

@@american1207 He doesn't have a single win against a top-5 fighter, the most he could do was draw against Jan, and even in that fight he could barely withstand the leg kicks, imagine when he receives Alex's kicks. Another thing to consider is that Alex has been improving his ground game, it won't be as easy to take him down as people think.

[@american1207]

@matheuscmiranda neither did Khalil. Neither did Strickland. Neither did Islam. Ank has more ranked wins than Hill and Khalil combined. Has a 5x longer unbeaten streak in the ufc than Jiri had when he got his title shot. What is your argument? You're just blindly assuming Periera has drastically improved his grappling but can't fathom that Ank can ever improve his stand-up? Yea you don't sound biased at all 😂

Aljo, can we rename this podcast to "with that being said" lol just messing around brother i never miss an episode brother keep doing your thing 💯

[@codyle3709]

This fight proves Alex is way more durable at 205 where he doesn't have to cut 50+ lbs because he just ate Khalil's best shots and didn't even stumble and kept coming forward. The first one he was caught off balanced. Clear contrast to when Izzy actually wobbled him. Not saying he didn't feel it but he clearly was fine enough to keep picking him apart little by little. Khalil is also really fast for a light heavyweight.

[@Blackopme]

@@codyle3709 bro.. Alex got hurt with the body kick and if Khalil have gone to Alex body especially his ribs.. Khalil wins man.. they didn’t spot the hurt, Alex had a poker face

[@codyle3709]

​@@Blackopmeufc really needs to allow the option to mute commentary during live stream lol

[@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071]

​@codyle3709 Alex being a weight bully really helped him against Izzy. Alex had that size advantage. If he didn't have the size advantage which was roughly 30lbs, then Izzy would beat him more easily. You can't have it both ways

[@codyle3709]

@@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071 Duh. Size obviously matters. That's the point I was making in the first place. He's way more durable at 205 compared to 185 where he's weight drained. At 185 they are like 50/50 vs each other. At 205, Alex would probably win 90 percent of the time against Izzy. "LeBron James could not dunk a basketball if he was average height instead of almost 7 foot." What kind of non point is this? lol. If Alex had the same build or frame as Izzy, his fighting style would not nearly be as effective. He tailor made it for his own physical attributes just like any other athlete.

[@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071]

Khalil had a slightly fractured nose going into the fight. His nose was very vulnerable, not surprised it was dripping blood on the octagon interview

I agreed with you about Khalil. That why I travelled to SLC from London. Very cool experience.

Legendary Alex poatan Pereira achieved so much both in Glory kickboxing and now in UFC within short period of time that lots of fighters can only dream About that type of achievements

[@hybrid.catastrophic.impact6071]

Most fighters dream of being on top a division lapping the fighters and having 7 title defenses like Izzy. Only other fighter to do so was Anderson Silva. Incredible

Guys like you and Merab will never make the fans feel like that main event did. Killing the sport with stalling and not wanting to hurt a fly. Nice ass guys.

[@JokerzGallery]

Poatan doesn't put himself in bad situations on the ground by trying to get up. He grabs the wrists and holds on for dear life until the end of the round. So you basically have to take him down in 3 rounds out of 5 to win a decision. Good luck getting him down 3 times without him sending you to the shadow realm on the way in

[@bubbabuttz1629]

Im gonna Buy Bottle

[@yoshiasakura5135]

Nah. There was definitely a skill gap between gap between Pereira and Roundtree. We saw it on full displayed the fourth round in their boxing when Alex start going back to the basics with the jab and slipping all of his shots. And even through out the fight early on, his range and distancing was better too which is why he never came close to being finished. He was always just out of range asides from the two landed in round 2 which still ate for breakfast. Khalil is going to land some stuff because he's fast and athletic. Not really a skill attribute. The head kick was just not the correct strat for Khalil so Alex pulled something else from his toolbox and made adjustments and dominated with it. If you go back and watch the fight, Khalil had big success within small portions of the rounds he won. That being said, Rondtree had tremendous heart.

[@JR-bw3tr]

Wait hold on champ Roundtree did have a good shot at the belt I guarantee you better than any of the top five in Alex's division but that's my opinion as well even though I don't think Roundtree won the first round I'll give him the second but I think the first round I got to give it to Alex but again Roundtree he hung in there this is going to at least move them up from number eight to at least hopefully top five but we'll see much respect to Roundtree he's a dawg

Lot of guys at 170 would just cut more weight to make 165. Same with 195. Also not enough talent to feed more divisions. HW is weak, fans aren't that high on LHW outside of Periera. MW was seen as 1 of the most boring divisions for years prior to Izzy's downfall.

Khalil did great for a #8 guy againsts. World beater, but his strategy was not amazing, he didnt keep enough gas in the tank, and he didnt acrually "rock" alex at all, but people keep saying he did.

Alex got him tired and then dominated from there. Great fight, but alex was never in true danger.
