Honestly the weakest I've ever seen Jones look in an interview -admits Aspinall is the tougher fight -admits he's being selfish -fans hurt his feelings🥺 -calls out a former middleweight Like holy s*** this is just pathetic to watch. This is the "goat"??
Aspinal is the number one contender - I don't know how Jones can talk about him like he's not relevant. If Jones had been fighting twice a year he'd be in a position to complain, but he's been squatting that belt (with a lot of help from Dana) for literally years. It's crazy.
If Tom Aspinall is an asshole, what does beating your wife, shooting guns on the street while drunk, getting popped for steroids multiple times, and being involved in a hit a run to a pregnant lady make Jon?
Yeah because Gustafsson, Glover, Anthony Smith, Reyes, Gane, Thiago, Saint Preux were all 5’11 right? Get outta here man, such a hater. Jones is the GOAT and Tom is a nobody.
@@agentcodybanx8909 Why do you (and all Jon Jones fans) care what it does for his 'legacy'? He should take on and beat the interim champion to build on his legacy. Not duck the guy because he hasn't beaten enough champions. How can he when the champion wont fight him.
You must not be Jon jones fan, this is how it starts. He acts scared and fearful of fighting someone who can possibly beat him and then somehow destroys them in the ring. George st. Pierre was exactly the same.
The reason ; 1.he sees and knows that aspinall is fast and strong 2. Sharp punches 3. Grappler too 4. Good boxer 5. Has a strong kick 6. Fast elbow attack 7. Defensive 8. Big guy too 9. Excelent in choking ,submission 10 a package figther, These are the reason why Jones is scared of aspinall
A champion who doesnt 'want to do business' with the interim champion who defended the interim belt ( which is absurd enough on its own) is retired. The fight is mandatory. Its not up to you jon.
To be fair, if he truly retires after this fight, then thats a w for aspinal. Tom has said he doesnt care if its jon or not, as long as its for the belt
@erich1380 he said he'd fight Alex and is willing to forfeit the HW belt. That is primal fear. Could you imagine Khabib refusing to fight Connor because "he's an A.H.?". He doesn't owe Ankalaev anything, but a man who claims to be the GOAT, allowing another man to walk around (rightfully) claiming the same belt and refusing to unify it, is no GOAT. Fighting Tom may do little for his legacy, but ducking him will cost him everything. No matter what, people will say "you were afraid". If you're not afraid, go finish it quickly and make it a quick day at the office. There is NO rationale that checks out. He *IS* afraid.
@@deepindersingh8781 it isnt, the sport doesnt revolve around him pretending to have a legacy. His legacy is already tarnished with this move and he is gonna leave the division in shambles holding an imaginary belt when everyone eith a brain between his ears knows who the rightful champion is
@@yudodisif you really think that man is afraid of anyone your crazy. I find what he’s saying logical. Tom does absolutely nothing for his legacy. If he only fights one more time after this fight I’d much rather see him in there with the biggest name in the sport right now in Alex
I can’t actually believe I’m hearing Jones say he won’t fight Aspinall because he’s bigger and younger than him. YOUR THE UFC HEAVY WEIGHT CHAMPION. You want every challenger to be the same age or older and also weigh the same as you??? 😂😂😂🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆
Never would lay a hand on a woman. Has a family that would NEVER have to call the cops on their own father. NEVER would do a hit and run on a pregnant woman. Isn't on PEDS. Actually fights anyone, anywhere, anytime. Is actually entertaining, and wins in stunning fashion EVERY time. Great guy and impeccable fighter. Everything Jones wishes he could be, but never has been and never will be.
Shut up dc came down and challenged Jon because Jon joked about being able to take down dc and dc didn’t want to drop it and it became what it became. Jon didn’t go after dc , Dc wanted what Jon had .
Jon Jones of all people calling a humble, well mannered dude like Aspinall an asshole is peak gaslighting. The ducking is insane. If he doesn't fight aspinall first thing after Stipe he needs to be stripped. Enough is enough already.
I guess i can understand his logic. He knows Aspinall is a bad stylistic match up for him and he dosen't want his last fight before he retires to be a loss...
He's the greatest of all time. Of course he's not picking a fight against Tom. A classic nothing to win, lots to lose situation. People going on about it for months have been insufferable. He's not gonna fight Tom and that's fine, all of you need to stop crying about it already
Let's keep hurting his feelings and never let this go. It's obvious that Hon Hones knows Tom is better and Hon Hones wants to keep his pretend GOAT status when in reality Tom would demolish Hon Hones and so would the last 3 fighters Tom has beat. Let's keep this up for years and make Hon Hones regret not fighting Tom. Let's make Dana regret this as well.
Jones - I'm not fighting a younger, bigger, more dangerous fighter rather than guys I want to hand pick to fight. Do you think I have to fight the no 1 ranked and interim champ? Dana - yes you do if you win against Stipe. Jones - I retire. That's the goat right there. LMAO.
Yep good business move for Jon and he will probably get it. UFC will try to make the Aspinall fight but in the end cave because UFC is all about money and it would be good business for them to have one more fight with Jon regardless of the opponent.
@ for Jon jones yes, have you never watched the ufc before??? News flash casual, one of the best wrestlers in the history of the sport would indeed Ragdoll Alex, someone who’s never wrestled in his life. Knocking out pure strikers who refuse to take him down isn’t going to work against Jon jones who’s gonna tackle him as soon as the fight starts, if you’re getting controlled on the ground by Israel adesanya……
Lmao you don't think all those trashier fighters like DP Chandler and Aspinall aren't either??? It's called news they have to act a certain way. If you want to be stroked and feel better go back to Disney
But I don't blame him for not wanting to fight aka do business with tom... He said tom hasn't brought his name into "fame" yet because at the moment alex is a bigger star than him and jones only wants to do business with big names, its easier to do big ppv numbers and make more money from it

Jon Jones said it himself in the interview: Tom Aspinall is 30 pounds heavier and 7 years younger. Imo this is the proof why he is ducking the INTERIM CHAMP(Who has every right to face the champ). And he admitted that he is a real Challenge... so it's pretty clear.. In addition: he said the fans are ignoring all logic, what a bullshit😂 the fans know what it means if somebody is the interim champ and the interim champ fights the real Champion. This is how it always goes...
@@NOT-A-Monolith 1.) Jon jones complaining about size and age difference… when he had a bigger age and size advantage over DC (10inch reach advantage) 2. Just because DC got fat to make Heavyweight doesn’t mean DC was effectively bigger, Jon was bigger.
He basically just admitted to ducking Tom, then tried to backtrack with some nonsensical logic, then at the end of it comes out with "if you can't understand that...."
Don't forget he cried while bashing his head off the cop car...lost to Reyes, but got a robbery W. Only beat Gus and DC because of heavy roids, with the positive tests to go with it. He's not even close to Goat status. Tom would merk him.
@Dustinpool87 What would Tom do to Reyes or Santos?? Finish them in a round or less. Jon struggled to win a Dec and lost to Reyes. He would get smoked & it wouldnt be close.
How is that, he hasn't even been offered to fight Tom and is under contract to fight stipe. All Jones is saying is Tom needs to keep fighting and winning
never that. you cant take away 2 decades of Jones legacy for a guy that just showed up on the radar. he wasnt even in question before when this fight was supposed to happen. jones doesnt owe him anything, let alone a title shot
Man Jones saying “what’s in it for me” and “Toms not on my Radar” you’re the fucking Heavyweight champ, you don’t decide who to fight. You defend your title or vacate that’s how it goes.
Jon isn't the HW champ. He's the #2 interim champ. He never beat a champ to become a champ. Just like Aspinall. Both are interim champs. Except Aspinall wants to fight, jon is avoiding it at all costs. He's scared and that is what everyone will remember about him as a heavyweight if he refuses to fight Aspinall.
This whole heavyweight move has been a power move by Jones. It’s about his legacy. And so, you can’t blame him for trying to pick the best fights that would add to, and solidify, his legacy
Jon..."I don't want to tarnish my legacy" Funny cause he's single handedly tarnished his legacy outside the cage way more then any loss in it could do.
😂 I mean fighting on peds and looking trash off them is very telling. I question heavily how good is Jon considering under the unified rules he would've lost 4-1 to Gustaffson. All of his best tape is him on peds other than that he is pretty mediocre. For context Wanderlei Silva at 205lbs in pride had a 16 fight win streak a champion, no getting stripped or cheating required. There is also Vovanchyn who at 5'7 and 210lbs was KOing literal giants in heavyweight. And this ignores Fedor, Stipe, Werdum, and Overeem. When it comes to mma Jones's record is really not that great at all.
Calling stipe Joe Biden and all that trolling and sneak dissing, showing up to Jon's event to get a face off for a thumbnail, Jon is right Aspinall is an asshole went about it the wrong way I think if he had just shut his mouth like Perreira Jon would have thought about it. At this point after 17 title fights his right what's in it for him he deserves to call some shots and the Perreira fight is a much bigger payday!
Embarassing. If he doesn't want to fight Aspinall because he is too heavy, then why is he fighting in the HEAVYweight division? Go back to light heavyweight if you want to fight Pereira
Tom Aspinall: Weighed 251 3mo ago against Blaydes Jon Jones: Weighed 248 against Ciryl Gane in 2023 Jon Jones today: Tom outweighs me by 30-35lbs. I'm at around 235 251- 235 is 16lbs so where tf did he get 35lbs from? Either Jon Jones walks around 215lbs which is absolutely BS or Aspinall walks around 275-280 which is Brock Lesnar range and also cuts 15lbs more than he needs to at 265 which no HW fighter would do. Gtfoh Jones, greatest DUCK lof all timen( Dodging thereal Undisputed Champion King)
@@artofmartialcinemaamc5334 We know Jones is already make dumb excuses and is looking like a fool every time he talks about Tom. Jones not knowing math isn't a surprise either. LMAO.
35 pounds bigger? What did John weigh in against Gane? 245ish? That's 10-15 pounds, not 35. Dude fought his entire career with a size advantage... not even worth getting into. Just say you don't want to fight someone you won't have an advantage over. Good lord
He's making the same excuses now as he did for Stipe back when Jon wanted to fight Lesnar instead. "oh he's too big, nobody knows him" etc. Now all of a sudden Stipe gets KO'd by Ngannou and is at the end of his career, Stipe is his Lesnar and Tom is the Stipe...
Thank you Jon Jones, you single handedly killed the entire UFC Heavyweight Division. Anyone who's a fan of you absolutely hates the sport of mma, like how you hated that cop who arrested you before you headbutted his car.
He ducked Stipe for years too and wanted Lesnar instead, saying that "Stipe isn't a draw and nobody knows him" while Stipe was the active champ. He waited for father time to kick in and for him to get flatlined by Ngannou before he plucked up the courage to fight Stipe.
Made a career from fighting 5"10 oversized middleweights, Ducked Chael, took Drugs to beat a 7 years older and shorter DC, lost 3-2 to Reyes, Took Anthony smith to descision, Claims to be a solid human being after all the shit he's done.....Wife beating infront of your own kids, Hit and runs, multiple failed tests, avoiding the interim champ in your division to fight an ancient Stipe..... Not the goat people.
if you built a career out of fighting and earned the ability to make that choice I don’t think it makes you a coward to just skate the rest of the way. It’s so incredibly hard to even have that option, it’s what’s best for him, just not us.
When Jon Jones was Tom Aspinall's age now, he fought a 38 year old, smaller than him Daniel Cormier for the belt on steroids and won. Jon Jones is refusing to fight Tom Aspinall because he is bigger than him, and younger than him - he may as well publicly say that he accepts Aspinall would beat him
When he did refuse to fight him? Fight was never offered. Jon is focused on the man in front of him. Tom is just chasing the dream and has to wait in line.
He wouldn't want to fight a BJJ black belt with good boxing and power that's bigger than him because then he'll expose Jon again (like Dom Reyes did) for only being good against people he has age and height advantage over. It's insulting to people like DC and Pereira (who's the same age as Jon btw) to be put in the same "GOAT" list as this duck that needs PED to beat old men.
THIS IS THE GOAT??? MULTIPLE DRUG TEST FAILURES FOR MULTIPLE DIFFERENT DRUGS, BEATS HIS WIFE TO A BLOODY MESS IN FRONT OF THEIR KIDS, CRASHES INTO A PREGNANT WOMAN ON A DRUG BINGE AND FLEES THE SCENE. If you’ve any respect for this sport, he shouldn’t even be in the conversation
Nevada decided (a week before) to not _sanction_ Jon because word leaked about him failing a test, so UFC moved the card to California. UFC has all of the fighters under contract, chooses the rules/referees/judges and actively participates in the business of gambling on the fights. _This sport is_ -starting to look like a big joke- _a fraud._
Says the man that knocked over a pregnant woman. Beat the mother of his kids. And has cheated the sport. Yeah you’re in no position to call other an asshole
man... i can really appreciate Jons' candor in this press conference... he's approaching middle age and seems be giving less of a fuck about things and is doing what he wants... he deserves it, he's the drawing card of the whole division at this point... a fight with Perreira is what the fans want to see, a true legacy fight where neither man really comes out the loser at the end....
How is fighting Perreira even a thing though? Will he drop to light heavyweight to challenge Perreira or does he expect Perreira to change his routine, training, diet and lifestyle and move up to heavyweight for him?
Only Jones and Jones meat riders want to see a fight with Pereira. Pereira is a good fighter but it would not be a legacy fight. Pereira doesn't have a legacy yet. No real MMA fans wants it. Real MMA fans want to see the real champ fight the interim champ to unify the belt which it is suppose to be. Not even Dana wants the Pereira fight. Yeah, I think I'll go with Dana instead of a casual like you. LMAO.
Key takeaways from this conversation: 1. Jon wants absolutely no part in entertaining a fight with someone who threatens his curated legacy. He would rather vacate his Mickey Mouse heavyweight belt than fight Tom, who clearly has no intention on being paid off to throw like Gane did. 2. He repeatedly mentions Tom being 7 years younger and heavier than him, weird how Jones capitalized on beating Machida, Sonnen, etc. Middleweight contenders that were 10 years older than him, but doesn't want to afford Tom the same opportunity. "The fans have finally found someone they're confident can beat me" "If you're a person who really wants to see me challenged, then I get it." Yes Jon, that's the point. The fans want to see you challenged, not cherry picking fights against a retired fighter in his 40's. 3. Jon must not realize the "heavyweight" cap is 265, as he no longer wants to fight anyone heavier than 235? 4. Jon was distraught that he couldn't straighten his fingers and eye poke with the new gloves, so Dana will allow him to use the old gloves, at Jon's request. It was great to see him demonstrate this motion. Keep an "eye" out for that in the Stipe fight. 5. Jon is Dana's poster child. Him losing after the multi-yeal glaze tour would make Dana a meme, and Dana hates being embarrassed. He wants to protect Jon as much as Jon wants to protect his record. 6. He is undoubtedly an incredible fighter, and is probably the greatest ever, but going out like this will hurt his legacy more than the rigged Reyes decision. He won some real battles against guys like DC, Gustaffson, etc. But this send-off is almost as tacky as SlapFest. Really hope he reconsiders his final chapter, and goes out respectably. Even if he loses against Tom, his legacy would be stronger than if he ducks him.
Only thing I'd add is greatest so far. His past few fights have been underwhelming. His legacy is already secured even if he lost to Tom. It's all just a bit disappointing. It has put a big damper on this event (the main fight anyway the rest will be great). I'm bored of him in the media now. Maybe Stipe got some Glover magic coming that would make my year.
Yup...To sit back the last few years after he actually lost to Reyes but with judges helping him maintain his record we now get to see him go out fighting an older retired fighter and he will never be able to say he went out offering the best fighter a chance to win his belt
I ve said this many times : at 37 y/o with a stellar career, beating the shit out of who's and who's of Mma there's nothing left to prove, Just a big A$$ bag to make and Aspinal doesn't sell ppv he needs Jon more than Jones need him , while with Alex its a different story ppv would be massive.

Saying the interim champion doesn’t deserve to fight the champ from a “business” standpoint is the most outlandish, and downright incorrect thing you can say as a champion in the sport of MMA. It’s either pure delusion, a facade, or straight up stupidity.
It's not Goat behavior that is for sure. Imagine GSP or DJ trying to avoid title challengers/an interim champion in their division when they were active champions
I will not fight Aspinal - Jones. But he's the no 1 ranked and interim champ and you suppose to fight him - real MMA fans. I will not fight a nobody - Jones. If you win against Stipe, you have to fight Aspinal next - Dana. What are you talking about? I'm retiring - Jones. LMAO.

“Why fight Tom who would beat me, when i can fight Pereira, who i can 100% beat by taking him down, get paid big time and ‘defend my belt’” i.e. I’m ducking Tom Aspinall
Translation: I’m only willing to fight guys that don’t have a strong take down defense. The same way that he fought Ciryl Gane ONLY AFTER he was exposed by Nganou to not have any take down defense!!!
Also, Ciryl's complete lack of grappling skills was made worse by the fact that he's also one of the most pillow fisted heavyweights ever. At least a guy with heavy hands can still be a threat to a wrestler. Someone like Derrick Lewis or Anthony Johnson or Jiri Prochazka is always dangerous, even if they're not great grapplers. But Gane? Dude needs 150 consecutive headshots to standing TKO someone. He's not like Tom or Ngannou who can just touch your chin and have you flip flopping around like you're having a seizure. Which is why it's even crazier that people are comparing Tom and Gane. Not only is Tom statistically a better grappler than Jon, but he's also an extremely heavy handed guy with one touch KO power. The literal only thing Tom and Gane have in common is that they move very fast, but Tom moves even faster, and his handspeed is also much better.
@@oscar278 We need to campaign to tell Alex to start saying the same things about Jon that Jon says about Aspinall. He's too heavy and he's an arsehole, so he's not earned his shot to fight him.

Ive never seen Jones so scared to fight someone before 😮😮
You must not be Jon jones fan, this is how it starts. He acts scared and fearful of fighting someone who can possibly beat him and then somehow destroys them in the ring. George st. Pierre was exactly the same.
The reason ;
1.he sees and knows that aspinall is fast and strong
2. Sharp punches
3. Grappler too
4. Good boxer
5. Has a strong kick
6. Fast elbow attack
7. Defensive
8. Big guy too
9. Excelent in choking ,submission
10 a package figther,
These are the reason why Jones is scared of aspinall

@@sammy-ecommerce Guru was right... Everyone still defending this guy is black, LMAO! Fragility.
A champion who doesnt 'want to do business' with the interim champion who defended the interim belt ( which is absurd enough on its own) is retired. The fight is mandatory. Its not up to you jon.
To be fair, if he truly retires after this fight, then thats a w for aspinal. Tom has said he doesnt care if its jon or not, as long as its for the belt
@erich1380 he said he'd fight Alex and is willing to forfeit the HW belt. That is primal fear. Could you imagine Khabib refusing to fight Connor because "he's an A.H.?". He doesn't owe Ankalaev anything, but a man who claims to be the GOAT, allowing another man to walk around (rightfully) claiming the same belt and refusing to unify it, is no GOAT. Fighting Tom may do little for his legacy, but ducking him will cost him everything. No matter what, people will say "you were afraid". If you're not afraid, go finish it quickly and make it a quick day at the office. There is NO rationale that checks out. He *IS* afraid.
Actually, it is up to Jon. You’ll see lol. The man has earned it.
@@deepindersingh8781 it isnt, the sport doesnt revolve around him pretending to have a legacy. His legacy is already tarnished with this move and he is gonna leave the division in shambles holding an imaginary belt when everyone eith a brain between his ears knows who the rightful champion is

Let's keep this up for years and make Hon Hones regret not fighting Tom. Let's make Dana regret this as well.
he didn't fight a champion to get the belt and there is a interim champion (that he wont fight) I think that's definitely disputed
Jones - I'm not fighting a younger, bigger, more dangerous fighter rather than guys I want to hand pick to fight. Do you think I have to fight the no 1 ranked and interim champ? Dana - yes you do if you win against Stipe. Jones - I retire. That's the goat right there. LMAO.

He wouldn't want to fight a BJJ black belt with good boxing and power that's bigger than him because then he'll expose Jon again (like Dom Reyes did) for only being good against people he has age and height advantage over.
It's insulting to people like DC and Pereira (who's the same age as Jon btw) to be put in the same "GOAT" list as this duck that needs PED to beat old men.
THIS IS THE GOAT??? MULTIPLE DRUG TEST FAILURES FOR MULTIPLE DIFFERENT DRUGS, BEATS HIS WIFE TO A BLOODY MESS IN FRONT OF THEIR KIDS, CRASHES INTO A PREGNANT WOMAN ON A DRUG BINGE AND FLEES THE SCENE. If you’ve any respect for this sport, he shouldn’t even be in the conversation
Amen brother 🙏 the Jon Jones glazers are completely blind for some reason
Separate the art from the artist
@@spadeace613 separate his fist from his wife’s chin hb that
@@sbmuss7118hes not. Only a casual would put him as goat or a black/gay person
funny part is that his brother Arthur popped for PEDs in NFL, and his other brother Chandler was arrested two times, this family has strong legacy
Them switching the gloves back to the old ones for him is absolutely ridiculous. This sport is starting to look like a big joke.
Are you kidding me? They did that so he can eye poke? Omfg
Jones wants to win by eye poke stoppage 😂
Remember the UFC moved a PPV to another state because Mr. Jones failed a drug test.
Nevada decided (a week before) to not _sanction_ Jon because word leaked about him failing a test, so UFC moved the card to California.
UFC has all of the fighters under contract, chooses the rules/referees/judges and actively participates in the business of gambling on the fights.
_This sport is_ -starting to look like a big joke- _a fraud._
jones legacy grants him certain priviliges, as it should be. not everyone should get the same treatment.
I really hope he gives up the belt and retires
The Irony of John refusing to fight Tom as he's 6 years younger and heavier, while he fights Stipe who is 5 years older and lighter is quite comical.
Good point.
You all miss the point 😂but keep crying I wonder what Tom have done tell me top 5 ranking he beat
Says the man that knocked over a pregnant woman. Beat the mother of his kids. And has cheated the sport. Yeah you’re in no position to call other an asshole
Yes toms an a hole cope and he's goofy
Jones wants Pereira so bad because he knows he can outwrestle him
Easy work for jonny
And he loves wrestling men
It would be funny as hell if Pereira slept him LMAO
He wants the golden goose energy back.
@@kofttehe’s outstruck your favourite fighters, trust me
man... i can really appreciate Jons' candor in this press conference... he's approaching middle age and seems be giving less of a fuck about things and is doing what he wants... he deserves it, he's the drawing card of the whole division at this point... a fight with Perreira is what the fans want to see, a true legacy fight where neither man really comes out the loser at the end....
How is fighting Perreira even a thing though? Will he drop to light heavyweight to challenge Perreira or does he expect Perreira to change his routine, training, diet and lifestyle and move up to heavyweight for him?
Only Jones and Jones meat riders want to see a fight with Pereira. Pereira is a good fighter but it would not be a legacy fight. Pereira doesn't have a legacy yet. No real MMA fans wants it. Real MMA fans want to see the real champ fight the interim champ to unify the belt which it is suppose to be. Not even Dana wants the Pereira fight. Yeah, I think I'll go with Dana instead of a casual like you. LMAO.
“Im proud of the man I am today , a team player, a neighbor…….”

Does he have any kids?

You forgot the eye poking
Absolute clown never seen someone duck someone so bad in UFC history 🦆 🦆
Then you don’t know mma history. Did you forget Gsp ducking Whittaker? Ducked Whittaker & then vacated the belt in hopes of fighting Khabib
@@theefamgod yes I do thanks
The most blatant in recent UFC history if not the worst case ever.
@@theefamgod he won the belt then retired it’s hardly the same
Says the nobody 😂
The mental gymnastics to say "I don't want to fight him" and "I'm not ducking him" is insane.
Jones hates the new gloves because they curve his hand … 👁️
That whole quote made me cry for stipe. Bro was stressing he wouldn’t be able to eye poke if things got dicey😭mf sped dialed Dana
Key takeaways from this conversation:
1. Jon wants absolutely no part in entertaining a fight with someone who threatens his curated legacy. He would rather vacate his Mickey Mouse heavyweight belt than fight Tom, who clearly has no intention on being paid off to throw like Gane did.
2. He repeatedly mentions Tom being 7 years younger and heavier than him, weird how Jones capitalized on beating Machida, Sonnen, etc. Middleweight contenders that were 10 years older than him, but doesn't want to afford Tom the same opportunity. "The fans have finally found someone they're confident can beat me" "If you're a person who really wants to see me challenged, then I get it." Yes Jon, that's the point. The fans want to see you challenged, not cherry picking fights against a retired fighter in his 40's.
3. Jon must not realize the "heavyweight" cap is 265, as he no longer wants to fight anyone heavier than 235?
4. Jon was distraught that he couldn't straighten his fingers and eye poke with the new gloves, so Dana will allow him to use the old gloves, at Jon's request. It was great to see him demonstrate this motion. Keep an "eye" out for that in the Stipe fight.
5. Jon is Dana's poster child. Him losing after the multi-yeal glaze tour would make Dana a meme, and Dana hates being embarrassed. He wants to protect Jon as much as Jon wants to protect his record.
6. He is undoubtedly an incredible fighter, and is probably the greatest ever, but going out like this will hurt his legacy more than the rigged Reyes decision. He won some real battles against guys like DC, Gustaffson, etc. But this send-off is almost as tacky as SlapFest. Really hope he reconsiders his final chapter, and goes out respectably. Even if he loses against Tom, his legacy would be stronger than if he ducks him.
Only thing I'd add is greatest so far. His past few fights have been underwhelming. His legacy is already secured even if he lost to Tom. It's all just a bit disappointing. It has put a big damper on this event (the main fight anyway the rest will be great). I'm bored of him in the media now. Maybe Stipe got some Glover magic coming that would make my year.
7, you arent a real MMA fan, shut up, go watch boxing.
Yup...To sit back the last few years after he actually lost to Reyes but with judges helping him maintain his record we now get to see him go out fighting an older retired fighter and he will never be able to say he went out offering the best fighter a chance to win his belt
@@time2chill121and gustaffson
I truly don’t think he’s the greatest ever, and is 4. Actually real????
23 minutes of copium is insane
This is Jones' retirement fight. Absolutely no way he fights Aspinall at this stage
Can’t believe he could become even more unlikable. But here we are
His own kids don't even like him. Called the cops on him
Deal with it. That's the GOAT, he gets to call his own shots

I ve said this many times : at 37 y/o with a stellar career, beating the shit out of who's and who's of Mma there's nothing left to prove, Just a big A$$ bag to make and Aspinal doesn't sell ppv he needs Jon more than Jones need him , while with Alex its a different story ppv would be massive.

"Tom Aspinall is an asshole"
Truly the most honest we've seen Jon
Saying the interim champion doesn’t deserve to fight the champ from a “business” standpoint is the most outlandish, and downright incorrect thing you can say as a champion in the sport of MMA. It’s either pure delusion, a facade, or straight up stupidity.
It's not Goat behavior that is for sure. Imagine GSP or DJ trying to avoid title challengers/an interim champion in their division when they were active champions
I will not fight Aspinal - Jones. But he's the no 1 ranked and interim champ and you suppose to fight him - real MMA fans. I will not fight a nobody - Jones. If you win against Stipe, you have to fight Aspinal next - Dana. What are you talking about? I'm retiring - Jones. LMAO.
Bro came up with 73 different excuses why he doesn’t wanna fight Tom but cannot admit that he’s scared shitless.
Scared🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ You're a 🤡
No, you just are incapable of rationalizing somebody else’s position. You would do exactly what he said why take a younger fighter who outweighs you significantly with very little reward.

“Why fight Tom who would beat me, when i can fight Pereira, who i can 100% beat by taking him down, get paid big time and ‘defend my belt’” i.e. I’m ducking Tom Aspinall
Love jones, he’s like the devil. Charismatic, a killer, secret genius, the bad guy who always wins
Translation: I’m only willing to fight guys that don’t have a strong take down defense.
The same way that he fought Ciryl Gane ONLY AFTER he was exposed by Nganou to not have any take down defense!!!
Also, Ciryl's complete lack of grappling skills was made worse by the fact that he's also one of the most pillow fisted heavyweights ever. At least a guy with heavy hands can still be a threat to a wrestler. Someone like Derrick Lewis or Anthony Johnson or Jiri Prochazka is always dangerous, even if they're not great grapplers. But Gane? Dude needs 150 consecutive headshots to standing TKO someone. He's not like Tom or Ngannou who can just touch your chin and have you flip flopping around like you're having a seizure.
Which is why it's even crazier that people are comparing Tom and Gane. Not only is Tom statistically a better grappler than Jon, but he's also an extremely heavy handed guy with one touch KO power. The literal only thing Tom and Gane have in common is that they move very fast, but Tom moves even faster, and his handspeed is also much better.
Stipe has strong takedown defense

Why would he want to fight for an interim instead of undisputed belt lol
@@oscar278 We need to campaign to tell Alex to start saying the same things about Jon that Jon says about Aspinall. He's too heavy and he's an arsehole, so he's not earned his shot to fight him. Especially if he wants to vacate the heavyweight title to avoid Tom he's actually worthless. He wants the "BMF" title, even though it is widely understood that the heavyweight champion is always the "BADDEST MAN ON THE PLANET"... Hahahahahahah. Come on Alex, avoid this bum and ruin his legacy!!!
if that's the case then you should hate him for saying ''CHAMA Jones, let's make them wait''. Another duck joining Jones
@@leonthepros952My brother in christ, how is he a duck? Because he wanted to fight the guy with a grappling game as good as jones instead of Tom?
