My main issue with Jon Jones fight career, is he thought a lot when it suited him. As soon as he was established he barely fights and refuses the same opportunities he was afforded. Beating Gane and an old Stipe just isn’t as impressive as beating Francis and Aspinall in their prime

[@tjwinsdawgs]

[@chiquita683]

When did Jones not fight the #1 contender when he was at Light Heavyweight? Name 3 fighters while he was active in the division that he denied the fight to? Show me you're not a casual with your knowledge of Jons career

[@Shane.Dennnis]

Tom aspinall lost to his first top ranked opponent. Blew out his knee in the first round. Then he beat a guy who was ranked #10. Then got an interim title shot cause Gane just fought a month prior and and the UFC wants Stipe vs Jones. He was a backup fighter not even ranked in the top5. Stipe has beaten Francis and also Beat Jons biggest rival twice. Please explain why Tom is a bigger legacy fight? Tom needs to fight Blaydes and avenge that loss or call out Gane.

[@justenzo7666]

Gane was more established and ranked higher than Aspinall with more notable wins when Jon beat him, so I’m confused…y’all just like to hear yourselves talk. Where is the energy when Khabib is brought up? 😂Damn

The legacy of one Jon ‘Bones’ Jones is one of crashing his Bentley into a pregnant woman’s car at an intersection and busting her up, running away on foot from the crash, then seconds later running back to the Bentley to retrieve drugs & a handgun, only to run away again. Or perhaps Jones’ legacy is one of sparring in the cage at the gym, noticing a USADA official walking into the gym, and quickly diving headlong to hide under the cage until the USADA official left. Or perhaps Jones’ legacy is one of stumbling to explain ‘picograms’ to the public, or what transpired to bring the term to the public’s attention. Or perhaps Jones’s legacy is one of driving around ABQ while quite intoxicated and firing a handgun into the air while driving.

[@mrmolloy]

Jon should have come out of retirement and fought Francis as soon as Francis KO'd Stipe. He didn't. He sat out and let Francis fight Gane, feud with the UFC, finish his contract and exit. That mistake was on Jon because he was concerned about his size. Then he decides to come back and fight a 41-year-old Stipe who has sat out for coming up to four years and another man Francis stopped... inside two rounds. He looks like he is doing everything he can to discredit and avoid Tom because he literally sees a complete fighter with KO power and an incredible ground game. He is not taking Tom Down easily, keeping him down long and he certainly isn't KOing Tom or winning that long 25 min game. His actions are not that of a GOAT. I wish they were but they are not.

There are still questions about Jon at HW. I think his GOAT status refers specifically to his insane run at LHW. He's a headline showman now looking for a few bucks, picking his opponents - standard combat sport business.

[@chiquita683]

Islam abd Khabib did and do the same thing. When Khabib had a bad weight cut he refused to fight. He also refused to fight if his opponent got injured and wouldnt take a replacement. Islam does the same, hes fought the same 145 lber over and over and only took the quick replacement because he knew Volk just had surgery. They tried to book him for a quick match against Justin and he magically got injured and wont fight until maybe the summer or Fall.

Great advice from Chael. And I understand where Tom is coming from, shit if I were him I would want that fight too, just the CHANCE to even maybe beat Jon jones is so much bigger than any belt. And I’m obviously in the camp that truly believes jon should fight Tom even if his hands were clean and he was going to make a clean exit. But if Jon never makes that public knowledge to the rest of his fans, then this narrative won’t stop even after he retires. At least for the short term, in the long run I don’t think it will matter at all, the internet has a short memory there’s no way they will remember that Tom was an interim champion at one point because Jon just so happened to get hurt.

[@BioRaz]

Who says Jon had agreed to fight Pavlovich if Stipe pulled out though...? The UFC assigns the backup fighters it's not a guarantee they will get to compete for the undisputed title if something happens, there are multiple examples of this and also multiple times that Jon had spoken of how methodical he is in his fight preparations and has spoken on not taking short notice fights

[@Cr0wsMurd3r]

Essentially Stipe created the problem we now have by not fighting Sergei "Colossus" Pavlovich, even though he had agreed to due to Sergei being the backup fighter. I thought Tom had the potential to be THE guy at heavyweight from the first time I saw him fight in the UFC, and now he is that guy. Sure, he lost to Blaydes... but Blaydes did not "beat" him in any way. So Tom is the guy, and the most compelling fight to make right now is Jon v Tom... or Tom v Stipe. Had it been any other guys than Jones and Stipe the UFC would have "made em" fight Tom since he is the legit number one guy is the division.

[@jamesmorrow706]

As a big Jones fan, the Aspinall fight is the first time I’ve really been worried. He’s younger, quicker and bigger. With gane, I wasn’t too worried because of the ground game, but Tom has a legit ground game. And in the stand up he just ko’d pavlovich. There’s no flaws that I can see. As a Jones fan, I wouldn’t be upset if he didn’t fight Tom. He’s older and it would be an unnecessary risk to his legacy. But as a MMA fan, I’d sure be disappointed. If he wins It would be the perfect way to display what it means to be greatest

[@jakeedwards1668]

He’s holding up a division that he will never be the true champion of. He waited for Ngannou to leave, Stipe to get old, had an easy matchup vs Gane, and now wants no piece of Tom.

Either Jon faces Tom or he should be stripped of the title and I would feel the same if Tom refused to fight Jon for whatever reason. If Jon Jones wants to fight Stipe, I don't care, but he can do it without holding a belt. Dana holding up the division for Jon Jones and Stipe is ridiculous, especially when both guys are most likely to retire after the fight win or lose.

[@yourmomshouse8355]

NGL nobody was thinking about Tom fighting jones at all until they booked the IC

[@DonnysDilemma]

People seem to sleep on the fact that Stipe has the most HW defences in UFC and really was messed around by not getting an instant rematch with Francis. If you compare both Tom and Stipe's record and think what makes more sense for legacy. Im sure it has to be Stipe. If only Jon could fight both.

[@Z33Nwa]

imagine a parallel universe where khabib comes back tomorrow, but he decides to fight at WW leon decides that's a bad match up and announces he's going up to MW to fight strickland. gets injured, vacates the belt as hes staying at MW. khabib wins the vacant WW belt vs usman via first round KO. lines up 'big money/legacy' fight vs conor (who just beat by first round KO vs chandler and then first round sub vs nate diaz) as no.1 contender shavkat was booked khabib gets injured a week out from the fight so they cancel the fight, leon decides to come back to fight shavkat who starches him in the 1st khabib comes back, and while shavkat is interim, decides to fight conor for the WW belt. sounds almost ridiculous doesn't it?

[@nicholasdonin1465]

Chael you're missing it. It's not about the injury or the original fight. It's about him not fighting Tom, now that Tom is interim.

[@D1RT_THERAPY]

Less words, more action. The puzzle is solved in the ring.

[@johnsecheverell7824]

Even if Jon fought Tom, and even if he won, there would still be some other, younger fighter who everyone is going to say he has to fight to really have a legacy or be the goat. At some point, you retire, or you lose that's life.

[@brandonshaw2120]

Sir-gee Pavlich WAS the one!

[@donttrendonme]

The same could be said for Francis, but Chael wants to give that credit to Tom

[@Aqua_Holic_Fishing]

Uncle Chael, do you realize Jon is one and done at this point? He putting the gloves in the cage after Stipe, guaranteed.

[@nycmaverick]

Chael's just a bitter man.

[@joaomendes147]

​@nycmaverick better*

[@landin1181]

Chael keep yapping fr!

[@sleepingiantino]

The way Chael talks about the UFC like a multiverse is so interesting

[@annna6553]

Its too bad other top fighters arent in the ufc. Theres quite a few that should be.

[@lorenzoloviselli1900]

​@@annna6553names? Christian lee, moraes, andrade

[@brusombear3823]

Chael never heard of this guy Tom Brady.

[@wendelangus1086]

Shaddup

[@MrSappergav]

Sorry but you can’t say about Jones’s injury bringing us to the story we are at now, that he’d be gone for not that injury when Tom had a bad injury that cost him his only defeat, that kept him out the octagon and kept him off a path that would of been his name mentioned to fight jones

[@DarkLight-Ascending]

"Yes, what Chael said".

[@shadbaumgartner4307]

How crazy would it be if stipe retired or got a bad injury and Jon has no choice but to fight Tom lol

[@Ringmaster101]

Oh hell ya ! Tom Time 🕰️

[@EdgyDabs47]

Jones is still shook from the BEATDOWN his toe recieved from the undefeated, undisputed, American gangster, bad guy CHAEL SONNEN.

[@garethparrish5777]

Is joe martinez and Joe Montana the same person? I'm confused

[@arturkoriakin1766]

No one takes Bones legacy…Bones is something Chael never been but always dreamed about🤣🤣🤣l

[@maxweller6257]

Rare chael F bomb! 4:45

[@orngdrnk]

He said bucked me up, like helped cheer him up

[@dmcgee4646]

Pavlich 🤣

[@doeing510]

I used to be an aspinall fan. He keeps asking for a fight he was told he wasnt going to get before fighting for the interim. He is whats wrong with people today. Agree to one thing but then all of a sudden is over taken with this feeling of entitlement.

[@ProjectN64]

I still feel robbed we never got the Reyes immediate rematch...

[@joshbuckby6086]

Imho jones Vs Aspinall.would be a replay of Reyes. Jones walks away. The only difference Aspinall reigns dominantly

[@benmcreynolds8581]

It's so clear that Jones does not want to fight Tom. He wants his legacy fight after holding up the division then walk away into the sunset. Tom has a valid point to claim his status in this HW division. The LHW division handled this perfectly. Jones has way too big of an Ego to allow the right thing to occur..

[@saqib_999]

Your telling me the GOAT of a sport has ego? Everyone has a ego some are better at hiding it but Jones clearly isn't and doesn't care about hiding it

[@benmcreynolds8581]

@@saqib_999 it's natural to have an ego. It takes skill to be balanced with your ego. We see the most successful people with the most fragile egos. Which proves it's a special thing when we see talented people with a good understanding of their own Ego.
