[@medicineman6454]

Can't wait for the Strickland vs Adesanya video. The clips of the press conferences alone are gonna be spectacular. As for this one, I still think it was 3-2 Alex. You'll also notice Jones has a habit in his fights of eye pokes as soon as he really gets hurt. Alex absolutely was the toughest fight Jones ever faced.

[@billj4525]

I have it 3-2 Jon, but I can understand 3-2 Alex since some of the rounds were so insanely close. Alex was the closest to beating Jon at the top of his game. He almost beat a trained Jon who had a game plan to beat Gus. No one has ever come close to that other than Gus.

@@Slamdunkasaurr his legs were still there and he was still moving his head and trying to throw back he clearly wasnt that hurt and he didnt even go down. he even ducked the elbow when he threw it again so clearly his head was there. its not like he has the strongest chin ever either because hes been knocked down before, jones just has no power and cant KO anyone lol. regardless of the fact he "rocked" him that doesnt win you the entire fight. jones clearly lost 3 rounds

[@bars_____]

Two things to take into account here. Gustafson had jones on the ropes for the first 3 and a half rounds. The kicks were most definitely accumulating but he was losing. Secondly, the elbows saved jones. That flurry at the end of the 4th round ultimately won jon the fight.

[@bars_____]

And to clarify it won him the fight bcuz it won him the 4th and it allowed him to edge gus out in the 5th.

[@Goatlikeitornot]

@@nb-rc8nf this one is not debatable at al, Jones was just beating up legends in every single fight before this one, it was so crazy to see someone challenging Jones a bit so people act like Jones lost. He beat Gus 4-1 in this one and destroyed him in the rematch. Reyes is the only one who won 2 rounds vs Jones and it should've been a split decision not unanimus. Jones won that fight with leg kicks and Reyes was basiclly flapping his hands entire fight.

[@jamesw.t.9591]

Round 5 was a decision of the match.

[@hawkeyechambers1868]

What a fight it was close in every round Round 1 was close but I think gus took it because of the takedown and the cut he gave Jones in his right eye, round 2 Jones for sure, round 3 was very very close it should have been a draw, round 4 was gus until the last minute and I think Jones took it from him because of that, round 5 was very close they had the exact same number of significant strikes but Jones edged it by the takedown This fight is the embodiment of the saying "this is a game of inches" because jon beat him by couple of inches and it doesn't matter if someone scored the third for gus because jon would still take 3 rounds that's why I think that the judge who gave 49-46 Jones wasn't out of his mind

[@atshabal]

Jones used to be existing to watch before he became a point fighters in his late fights at lights heavy weigh.

[@117Awesome]

Agreed, he started off that first title fight with a flying knee and became one of my favorite fighters. After that second Gustaffson fight though he just fell apart. Made so many terrible decisions outside of the ring and then became a boring fighter inside of it that was just trying to hold on to the belt. Such a shame, still the most dominant fighter in UFC history but his legacy could have been so much more.

One of only 2 fights where Jones was close to getting beaten. This, and his last light heavyweight fight against Reyes.

[@billj4525]

Yeah, those were the only two fights that were just insanely close at the end that they really could have gone either way.

[@smh02]

He lost both fights and the santos fight, same way o malley lost to yan. UFC is owned by the mafia lol

[@billj4525]

@@smh02 He definitely beat Santos. Reyes should have beat him fair and square. The first Gus fight was close, but Jon seemed to take it 3-2, but I can understand someone going the other way. The Reyes one was the only one that was unfair, but it was still close enough where judges could make mistakes. Reyes should have at least got a rematch. If Jon trained hard I doubt Reyes would have done well a 2nd time, but Reyes still deserved that rematch. There have been really really bad decisions in the UFC, much worse than any Jones fights. I'm talking really obvious decisions. The rounds are all close in all these Jones fights, that's why even the Reyes decision wasn't that horrible, even though he should have won in my eyes. Some decisions are much worse.
