Default Stars $500+30 AJs in a SB vs BB

Villain had been one of the more active players at the table attacking the blinds often. During the previous blind level at 1500/3000 the same situation occured. It folded around to me in the SB and I raised it up to 7500 with AKo. He minraised it to 15000, I push, he folded. Hand converter not working for me.

PokerStars Game #5083980346: Tournament #24665512, $500+$30 Hold'em No
Limit - Level XVIII (2000/4000) - 2006/05/28 - 22:56:43 (ET)

*** HOLE CARDS ***

pologuy64: folds
muirspud: folds

Maria1975: folds
Zizz: raises 6000 to 10000
astromech: raises 57271 to 67271 and is all-in
Zizz: ?

I'm curious what everyones decision would be how I played it. I'm also curious on what people think about completing the SB and taking a flop if he checks or moving in on him if he raises.

Thanks.

I wouldn't fold, ever.
You are getting good odds, and I think you are ahead of his range here.

He can be restealing with any ace, a bunch of hands you are well ahead of.

My thoughts were that the majority would say this is a call. But I'm more interested in everyones opinion on playing these type of situations different with a limp against an aggressive player.
