What a joke. This dude needs to be stripped now. I don't remember MMA legend Shogun Rua playing these stupid games when Jon was a young contender. He just fought the next man up with no complaints and no excuses. Jon obviously can't bring himself to do that, he needs to go.
I don't think it makes that much of a difference. If Gane trained a ground game he most likely would've beaten Jones and people would just say see, Jones doesn't work at HW. If Stipe could somehow beat Jones, it will be even more like Jones never belonged at HW because while he choked out a guy...
If he gets his L back against Blaydes, I think that will answer any remaining questions. That and a win over Gane will make him the undisputed champ no matter what Jones does but it's still a lot of ifs
Yep, Jon even said Stipe was the toughest fight he could possibly take and I believe him bro. He said Stipe is so tough and dangerous at this point in his retirement that he needs to take care of that business before he can even think about unifying the belt. I know he would never duck anyone...
Exactly. He's a new generation and the only fighters he can make a name off of won't fight. And it's actually closer to three duckers with Jon, Stipe, and Gane.
You can basically say the same thing about Jones. He's old, fat, inactive, ancient in MMA years and lost his last fight (or two) before he retired. He came out of retirement to fight a guy who hates MMA, only does it for the money, and refuses to train a ground game. Jon's no dummy when it comes...
If Aspinall has to defend his interim title TWICE then at that point he is the undisputed. Dana might try to explain why Jon's still the champ but he's going to look really stupid and no one will buy it.
The magic of the UFC was the style vs style aspect that was promoted and existed through the mid 20 teens. When people started training UFC it all became homogenized and to some degree, boring. It takes much more to stand out as a star, or at least original these days
Cyril Gane should have stayed a kickboxer. If you don't want to learn the other half of the sport in a year's time then you don't belong in that sport at the highest level and Jones proved that.
Wait, is that right? Jon grabs HER phone and records himself threatening her and then gives it back and then she takes it to cops? Jon does some stupid shit but if that's true, it might set a new record
