The alley clip is thirteen seconds long and has one running joke: two people square up with great seriousness, the fight turns into slaps and a tote bag, and somebody ends up on the asphalt. Which two people you put in it, and what you write underneath, is most of the result. This is a list of casting ideas and captions, with a few post formats for fight nights. For the mechanics start with how to make a McGregor vs Aldo AI video, and for the real event behind the clip see McGregor vs Aldo AI video: the 13-second KO, from two photos.
Cast your 13-second KO
Add the Winner and the Loser photos and make the 13-second McGregor vs Aldo-style AI video with the clip's own music.
First, the one rule of the template
The Winner, photo one, does everything: the slaps, the tote-bag swing, the shove and the last shot standing over the other. The Loser, photo two, squares up, takes it and falls. That does not change with the photos, so casting is deciding who takes the fall. Everyone pictured must have agreed and must know which role they have. Photos of fighters, other public figures, strangers and children are out.
Six pairings
1. The friend who always wins the argument
Put the friend who never concedes in the Winner's place. The Loser is whoever has lost that argument most often. Photos in everyday clothes work, as long as the two people look clearly different. Caption: "The argument is settled (AI-made)."
2. Two coworkers after the meeting that should have been an email
Ask first and only use people who are in on it. The person who volunteers takes the fall. Keep the caption about the meeting, not a person: "Item four on the agenda (AI-made)."
3. Siblings
Both agree, the photos are on the family phone and the history gives the joke a shape. Pick one lighter and one darker outfit so the two stay readable in the close shots. Whoever lost the last game takes the Loser slot.
4. A couple
The joke is in who gets the tote bag. Send them the video privately before it goes anywhere, because it is their face on the ground and some people would rather not.
5. You against yourself
Two photos of you in clearly different clothes or hair, one in your work outfit as the Winner and one in your weekend clothes as the Loser. Do not use a photo of a person whose age or looks are the joke. The punchline is the bag.
6. A fight-night group chat
Cast two members who both like the sport and know they are in it. This is the format where the 13-second angle fits, and it needs the most care: see the caption section below.
A note on grandparents
The reference clip shows two elderly people, so a video of your own grandparents is the obvious idea. Do it only if they have seen what the video shows, slaps, a bag swing and a fall, and clearly said yes, and think twice about posting it publicly. Never use photos of an older relative who has not agreed, and never post it in a way that suggests elder abuse or a real injury. The safer version is two adult friends of any age who are in on the joke.
Caption lines
Keep each line short, and keep the AI label in the caption itself, not only in a hashtag.
- "Family dinner got out of hand (AI-made)."
- "The tote bag has opinions (AI-made)."
- "Thirteen seconds, one bag, zero medical advice (AI-made)."
- "He said he'd carry the bag. (AI-made, staged)"
- "Rematch at the corner shop (AI-made)."
Avoid captions that call the clip footage, leaked video, a real incident or a real street. Avoid captions that name a real person who is not in on it.
Fight-night post formats
A 13-second clip suits a sports night, because people are already thinking about knockouts. Three formats that keep it honest:
- The reaction post. After a card, post the video with a caption such as "My group chat's version of tonight's finish (AI-made)." Do not name the fighters or the event unless your point is the real result, and never imply the clip is from the event.
- The record-line post. McGregor knocked out Aldo in 13 seconds at UFC 194 on 12 December 2015, the fastest finish in UFC title-fight history in the sources we checked (ESPN and NBC News). A caption can say: "AI-made, styled after the 13-second McGregor vs Aldo KO at UFC 194. Same length, much sillier." That gives the real fact, the AI label and the honest difference in one line. Check the current record first, and remember your video is not a record.
- The swap post. Make two versions with the roles reversed, post them together and ask who wore it better. It doubles the comments and avoids anyone being the permanent loser. The cost is two videos, so check the quote in the tool for each one.
What to leave out
- No UFC logos, branding or fighter names in the video, and no tagging of the UFC, a promotion or a fighter. Oakgen is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of them.
- No betting, odds, prize or pick talk.
- No claim that the clip shows the real fight, a real injury or a real street.
- No real addresses, neighbourhoods or shop names in the hashtags.
- No photos of fighters or other public figures, ever.
Making the post work
The video is 3:4, so it fits a feed post and a Reel with the picture centred. On a full vertical screen it sits in the middle with space above and below, which you can fill with a plain background. Check any crop keeps both fighters in view, especially in the wide stand-off at the start. Choose 720p or 1080p; both cost the same flat rate, and 1080p is the better choice if you plan to crop. The clip has a music bed and no speech, and the song is not identified, so replace it with licensed music if a platform flags it.
Watch it once with sound and once muted before posting. Step through the bag swing and the fall for swapped faces or extra limbs, which are the places this kind of video goes wrong, and regenerate rather than post a beat that fails. More on the checks is on the UFC 194 AI Video: 13 Seconds Beat by Beat, the casting and consent side is on Conor McGregor vs Jose Aldo AI Video With a Friend, and further wording is on the McGregor vs Aldo AI Video Captions and Posting Guide.

Frequently asked questions
Who falls in the McGregor vs Aldo-style template?
The Loser, who is photo two. The Winner, photo one, slaps, swings the tote bag, shoves and ends standing over the Loser.
Can I put a real fighter's photo in it?
No. Do not upload photos of fighters or other public figures. Use photos of adults who agreed to appear.
Can I mention the 13-second KO in my caption?
You can, if you tie it to the real 2015 fight, say your video is AI-made and styled after it, and check the current record first. McGregor knocked out Aldo in 13 seconds at UFC 194, the fastest finish in UFC title-fight history in the sources we checked. Your 13-second video is not a record.
Should I tag the UFC or a fighter?
No. Oakgen is not affiliated with or endorsed by the UFC, any promotion or any fighter, and tagging them suggests your video is something it is not.
What shape is the video?
3:4 and 13 seconds long, at 720p or 1080p. On a full vertical screen it sits in the middle with space above and below.
