    I agree with Karyn. It was one of Alan's best performances. When Jessica Andrade vs Tecia Torres, I was nervous for Alan. That fight tore the roof off the building. Should have been 5 rounds. Hopefully this performance by Alan is in Sean and Micks minds cause whenever they match him up next time, it should be against someone like Donald Cerrone. I agreed with Mike, I thought that is a good matchup cause Donald is ranked #11. If Alan can be Cerrone, that should get him with a number next to his name. Hopefully that can be the main event of a FS1 fight night, Alan has done so much for the UFC that he deserves to get that main event treatment.

    I'm so proud and happy for my guy Alan! In my picks I picked Jouban to win by 2nd round ko and when he did I was even more pumped. And the fact he had an emphatic EA UFC type knockout, just a taste of what's to come this year. Alan is gonna be in the top 10 by the end of the year, trust me. Respect to Ben, but Alan is another level. Also shout out Cage! lol

    Man was I so relieved when Alan won. That post fight speech was so very touching too. I know Covington wouldn't sign for the fight but I'd pay money to see Alan vs. Colby. I hope the UFC will put together Emil Meek vs. Alan next. I know it doesn't make sense record wise but would be fun.
