LAS VEGAS – Jonathan Brookins believes he’ll never
shake the tag of “the guy that fought Jose Aldo,” but two years removed
from that fateful day, the 25-year-old now has another title for life:
“The Ultimate Fighter 12” winner.

Of course, despite a come-from-behind performance that will forever lay

credit for his efforts at Saturday’s The Ultimate Fighter 12 Finale
event.

Instead, the 25-year-old believes his journey as a mixed martial artist has only just begun.
