Crooklyn’s Corner 04: Aljamain Sterling talks Cejudo, taxes, pandemic

June M. Williams

Episode 04 discussion: Interview exclusive with number 2 ranked UFC bantamweight Aljamain Sterling who discusses life during pandemic lockdown, Henry Cejudo, taxes, rent relief and more

Welcome to Crooklyn’s Corner, the podcast that’s basically a hodgepodge of topics focused on the combat sports and entertainment community. The show will feature special interviews, fantasy matchmaking/analysis and whatever else we can come up with to keep our listeners steeped in fresh and engaging content. The show is hosted by Stephie Haynes and airs when needed to fill gaps in our Bloody Elbow Presents podcast network.

Here is a summary of the topics discussed or questions asked. Time stamps won’t always be available as our conversations tend to be very fluid and bounce back & forth frequently. However, when fantasy matchmaking and analysis is the focal point of an episode, we will definitely timestamp when each fight breakdown begins. As always, I hope you enjoy listening to the show as much as I enjoyed recording it.
