He's like if Izzy has better defense, employed more elbows, knees, teep kicks and oblique/side kicks. Jon doesn't have the back dexterity to do the pull back like izzy but he understands range very well he knows where he's in danger and when he can coast

Clearly Reyes beat him

[@Avalanche_Hockey166]

I’m glad someone pointed this out. That specifically stuck out to me in this video as well. It seems like Jones is on some psychopath shit upstairs lol It’s like he has the mindset of wanting to and not just only the skills to do damage in there. Made him an absolute killer in the cage yet in the outside world didn’t seem to mend so well.

[@blackneji1701]

I thought it was illegal, I dont see fighters do this anymore

[@amjadtiseker1481]

Its amazing to see the evolution of his opponents! Frim steamrolled one dimensional old school fighters to real mixed martial artists with kicks and takedowns

[@tomaskovarik7966]

It's so nice adding some clips of Jon Jones to Chael Sonnens, undisputed GOATs, highligh reel.

Dominick Cruz that look in that eyes I can tell that hurt.. Bro that hit me I would be dead

[@mike48931]

I remember watching Jon Jones early on in his insane title run. The resume of this man is probably the most impressive in UFC LHW history. It was clear he was an insanely talented fighter. Then watching him on Ultimate Fighter, he seemed like such a mature and genuinely kind person. He was a great leader to the guys he was coaching. It really seemed for a while like he had it all, save a few blemishes. It’s sad that he made so many poor decisions in the public eye that ruined that reputation. Otherwise, he absolutely would be widely considered the GOAT without question.

[@sahnimus3455]

He’s so good I never realised that he hasn’t finished anyone in a long time

[@mxbblife_mu]

Last one was Gustafsson

[@daveledonio5793]

He was on 3 year hiatus before choking out Cyril Gane

[@oscarmorales-cn3hz]

He is really the G.O.A.T, it's not about numbers it's about huge names, real champions are not a joke to fight to... He did it right there, what a fighter!!!

hows this for numbers? how many times has Jones pissed dirty?

[@oscarmorales-cn3hz]

@@ohiostatebuck33 That's my point!!!

[@ethancntower8850]

It'll be interesting to see if or how his striking has changed in the last 3 years. I have a feeling he's been working on a lot of boxing and trying to improve his punching power to be able to compete with the big boys. Will we see a new improved HW beast JJ or a plus sized rusty old bones jones?

[@actuallyken8874]

Man i love watching *Jon Jones fight. *Jon does great when he is defending his *championships man. Great stuff to watch.

[@poppafunknasty9991]

The only thing I wanna see more of from Jonny is his boxing. He throws amazing kicks, knees, and elbows. His wrestling is obviously elite. I just wanna see more with his hands. He’s got the longest reach ever. If he threw more combinations, and really extended his punches, he could be putting people to sleep.

[@JamesSmith-xk1fb]

his clench work is nasty with the elbows, cranks and chokes. he uses his reach to guide jabs to expose weak points to get into the clinch

[@caspercasper5413]

Lol go coach him then

[@isaackeigwin]

Right, he’s a super creative striker but rarely pieces together combos with that reach. His skill is still enough to dominate all but the very best strikers though.

[@vincentdegroof4336]

U saw the Glover fight right?!

​@Evan Sullivan Since the gus fight he has been pretty good with boxing... His head movement and reaction time is probably the best in the u f c now...His SApM is only 2.22 in 26 fights

At 7:10, the fight that many MMA casuals will never forgive Jones for winning. The mat did more damage to Jones than Chael did

[@geoff3250]

I always wondered if Sonnen had survived the round, what would've happened... Jones still would've found a way to win, I'm pretty sure. His toe/foot looked gnarly, though.

[@executivelifehacks6747]

Props to Chael... took on peak JJ when he was finishing people, before he popped and had to go a bit easier.

[@MaruneThaBabune]

And to think Glover became LHW champ mamy years after this beatdown by Jones ultimately showing how dominant Jones was no matter who he faced.

[@FinnMMA]

Fr almost everyone of his first 7-8 opponents would be the LHW champ if they were fighting nowadays Nobody will ever have a better resume than Bones 🐐

[@bokbok2039]

Gustuffson was so amazing. Fight couldn’t have been closer

[@CliffHuxtableSweater]

I’m not even about to watch this. I just dropped by real quick to leave this comment: JJ, THE GREATEST EVER. Period. I won’t be back to respond to comments that say diff. Good luck w/ your life.

[@johncenafan3161]

when a video on your title defenses is 25 mins your the goat

[@cloud9847]

Gustafson was someone I always wanted to see win the belt but never got there. He had a champs mentality but just never was his turn.

[@normie2716]

Yeah. Sometimes truly incredible, champion-level fighters peak during an era where's there's one dude better than them. In another time, they would have been the champ.

[@FinnMMA]

Would 100% be the LHW champ nowadays if he Was still fighting, his quote about Jon was also crazy "For me beating Jon Jones is bigger than winning a belt' Holy shit man🐐

[@roosevelt_asylum]

Hmm I thought this was a video of all of Bones’ title defenses. Nice of you to throw in the title win for the GOAT Chael Sonnen. Respect!

Just take a second and look at all the people he beat in this compilation, think of all the fights we have watched them shine, I mean people go on about Khabib being undefeated but look at Jones resume, it's insane he beat so many former world champs and beasts in their own right

[@cowboyninja9002]

and alot of them were in they're prime

[@nicolasrose3064]

I agree with Jackson when he says that front kick to the opponents knee should be disallowed, he rightly states that it can just too easily ruin a Fighters knee-joint and end their careers. He went on to talk about risk minimisation being imperative in a sport where literally every strike already has the potential to destroy years of hard work, blood, sweat and tears. It shouldn't be about destroying your opponents body, every Fighter understands that choosing to fight is made with accepting the risks, but to have your leg or arm joints destroyed when a rule could have prevented that from happening, is the same as that choice being taken out of your hands and it then being used to ruin your career.

[@mattthomson3134]

I love boxing and its actually very enjoyable having a Spa with your mates. Landing hits feels super good and taking hits also gives you a good feeling. But man... these elbows are killer .. I practice them and I'd use them if I needed to, but they are so damn dangerous.
