Every Jon "Bones" Jones Title Defense 

Bones took part of his soul

The judges took a part of his soul maybe, then Jiri broke his face with his elbow ko. Nothing to do with jones

Take notice that ONLY ONE of these men EVER fought the same again. Daniel "all about that cake" Cormier is literally the ONLY opponent Jones faced at the top who's career didn't start down falling afterwards. He crushed people's minds. (I realized glover and gus but one took 40 years to get back and the other was only booked because he did well in the first fight)

@@CarloTheImmortal You fail to realize that his career was over after he fought Jones. ONLY DC has come back from a Jones defeat to get to the top of the sport again.

@@lilsavdabest did you forget Glover? but yeah thats true every opponent he fought had a steep decline after that

I think the same, in that fight was amazing, he's veeery fast

Totally agree Gus is a beast. He has virtually the same body type as Jones tho slightly less powerful/explosive and in the first fight he had amazing takedown D which I think it was so close.

He won that fight eye poke goat didn't win that fight if the ufc wasn't about ppv then it would be real

Agreed. Damn, go Sweden from Finland ;)

​@@seandaugherty2033 there is almost no argument that Gustaffson won plus if he was so good why did he get absolutely annihilated by Jones in their second fight stop making excuses

That could be one 5 round fight to hit 25 minutes lol

4:37 Evans was dancing to show off and immediately after that was dancing without wanting 🤣

Just imagin how many minutes will be for khabibs title defence 😂 maybe highlights will be not more than 3mints 🤣

⁠@@free_balloonssure

​@@Oderus.Urungus You stink....lmao

@@_fool_of_a_took_the levels that were found in his system were small enough to be before he even entered the UFC

​@tjboylan20 what? Bro he failed several tests what are you honestly talking about?

​@@tjboylan20your logic is appalling btw...

Yeah that was savage af. Gotta love the dragon tho

It's a guillotine that acts like a rear naked choke is why it puts people to sleep.

I feel like even though it’s a highlight that is seen often is still underrated in the sense of how savage of a sub it was. One do the nastiest submissions ever imo even though more technical or rare subs have been pulled since and before it was just soo fn nasty 🤮

@@chris10878 yep

@@nickgilroy1981 true

I agree. You never knew what his next move was gonna be. A spinning wheel kick, flying knee, takedown, elbow, etc. Just a terrifying man to be standing across from in the octogon.

His lanky limbs and athleticism mixed with his Confidence and defensive IQ made him the perfect fighting machine he did use PEDs but with it without he was made for this

What made him great was PEDs

what really made jon jones the best of all times was his mental mind games that he played with his opponents

It was his height, arm length, elbows and wrestling... whenever he was losing a round against a similarly skilled fighter, his gameplan was spam elbow and takedowns..

If i had splayed fingers in my opponents eyes the whole time without ref intervention id be pretty happy. Great defense .

Demetrius Johnson is as close as they come

@@aliasiskey4434 if demetrius wasnt a whole foot shorter than jon he would have definitely been a jon jones clone

​@@beastaa666you can keep crying around, jealous fool who can never appreciate someone great due to some stupid reason.

Chael Sonnen? He came off two loses and then fought Jones in a division he didn't belong in no? His first 5 defences were against middle weights. You ever wonder why he loses/has a tough time fighting someone his size 🤷‍♂️.

Completely agree

Enjoy while it lasts

I like the eye poke compilation.

Yeah, but the only problem with what you’re saying is you can find these kind of compilations everywhere all the time! So I don’t really understand what you’re talking about because that’s not true 🤔

Man what are u talking about lol every all time great has super long compilations. i see full ppv fights being posted on YT the same night every month lol they ain’t the PGA

During his younger days he really likes to defeat his opponents where they are good at. Like his fight with texeira and sonnen.

Bro out boxes boxers and out wrestles wrestlers 😭

@@quakeplug5562 I mean, he didn't try to out box Rampage More like out kick him When he out wrestles the wrestlers tho 💀 And battered Glover in the clinch I believe Jones if he wanted could still beat the current champs with a finish

@@remyhavoc4463yeah well those wrestlers are not his size or weight

he’s the tape goat. Guy studies more than anyone in the organization

He’s got an 8 fight deal and I hope he wins all of them tbh

he lost to reyes bs rigging put your money on jones

Man and now look at dom

Man I want to see Jones vs someone like sergie pavlovich or Curtis blaydes. Like I know Cyril is good but I sense something crazy could come out of those matchups.

@@Smithy250 no shot ahahahahah

He'd been complaining about those kicks all night. He even questioned their legality in later interviews.

Yep lol

You could tell it f*cking hurt like hell for Rampage he literally stopped walked back before realizing he's still gotta fight

@@scarletcrusade77He kicked his knee back Rampage recently said in an interview that his knee is still in pain from that kick

@@__Ace___ shit should be illegal ufc has some retarded rules

Yeah, every time he caught Jon with those massive punches Jon felt them. The thing was that Santos had the chance of a knockout, but Jones was using all kinds of different techniques.

Well Said

he was one of the best title challengers, his first fight with Jones man, you can see his chin was made out of carbide. Its sad to see him go out like that

@@davintjandra4226 You think Alexander vs Dom would have made a good matchup?

@@fearlessfrank409 wouldnt say so man, its different, dom lost because he fought beasts and i think he can easily take out some of the top 10 contender, but alex has just lost it, i dont think he got what it takes to compete at the elite level anymore especially since he is a striker he need to trade punches but his chin just gave up

Till he got TKO by Anthony Johnson lol 😆

Krylov hold my beer

harder even cos those guy can wrestle

while being on steroid* .... you forgot to add that part

@@syedabdulhaq1994 don't forget also while running women over , coming back for his coke and beating his wife

@@syedabdulhaq1994 yea because everyone Else was clean back then. God Damn.

Except khabib never took steroids and is actually the same height and weight as most his division Jon’s early career sure he was a legit 205er blessed with the frame to use his height and reach but cmon eventually he shoulda been fighting heavyweights a long ass time ago he’s been walking round at 240 for years same weight the best heavyweight champions ever fought at.. Cain and stipe both fought at 240 and didn’t cut shit cause they were legit the best regardless of size Jon is 6 foot 4 with an 84 inch reach the longest in the entire sport and cause he’s got chicken legs he can cut to 205 and dominate smaller men ... he will never be the goat till he wins that heavyweight belt and does it clean then i will admit it not until then💯

You're right and haters can't see that, they always looking for fault

​@kennyjoeljefa5391 you must think eye pokes are ok

fr dudes 6’4 and has gotten some of the fastest & flashiest kicks and moves that i thought only smaller dudes could do

USADA introduction

With drugs

@Shattered no you can't lol

@Shattered you gotta start rewatching fights. The heat of the moment viewing will always lie to you.

@Shattered only if your a casual

yeah what a hero battling his demons using his car to smash into a pregnant womans car and running away like the little thug bitch he is. Truly the greatest fighter of all time, thats why he needed to grab ears, poke eyes, knee on the ground, kick on the ground, and do T 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No, he was fighting his wife outside of the ring

Thiago got his ass kicked by unmotivated Jones. Reyes came in in the shape of his life and by the end of the fight was getting walked down by Jones gasping for air. Reyes didn't deserve to win

@@lachlanm7149 reyes beat jones 3-2. Just because he lost the championship rounds doesn't mean he shoudn't have won. That's not how fights are scored

@@azadog1233 I gave Jon one of the earlier rounds based on pressure, more effective attacks and Reyes missing

@@lachlanm7149 missing and accuracy is not a scoring criteria. The criteria is based on the damage of those strikes. Pressure is only accounted for if the person is outstriking or grappling their opponent, otherwise they are just walking into shots.

@@azadog1233 I gave Jones round 2. Reyes lands a couple of glancing shots to start the round, then has the big flurry but only 3 shots connected. They reset and Jones walks forward hitting Reyes with about 12 single strikes until about 1:25 on the clock where Reyes throws back and hits jon a couple times. Jones hits Reyes with a big side kick and Reyes gets a good uppercut on jon right after, then a kick. The round ends. Jon looked more composed throughout and landed the more effective shots throughout aside from the uppercut. Jon's round

That Reyes fight could’ve gone either way. Had Reyes done a little more he would’ve won.

@@AndrewCooperr nah even if reyes done more damage he would still lose because jon is one of the cash cow of the UFC he must be protected

just like conor a fighter could have jones by his foot leaning backwards and jones could still punch him flush....and that happened many time the first Gus fight he clearly lost then the second fight jones was roided up 100% and jones lost to Reyes also Reyes fought the fight of his life and the judges took it away edit...Kennedy stomped jones and was robbed

Yeah I know right, his fingers were so big he couldn't help blinding everyone he fought. "You can't fight what you cant see" -Jon Jones

what abt his fight wit Gane ?? what’s ur opinion on that one ?

Yeah but I don't find it funny. I cringe when I see it.

That head literally dropped at freefall speed. In the end even accelerates.

He deserve that. Should of tap instead of trying to be a badass

@@Charles-yf5bk maybe he was out before he could tap

@@MK-we9sw that's what I believed happened exactly.

its just crazy what more he could of accomplished if he could of stayed out of trouble, likely would be near 20 title wins tbh

I think everyone agrees no matter what tbh 😂😂from what I’ve seen after his most recent fight

He won’t run through me like that tho 😂

​@@Thomson07 still is at 16 title fights 16 title wins which is absolutely crazy considering he fought TRT Vitor, Rampage Jackson and all these others who were on probably way more juice than he Was he never looked like some Vitor or Kamaru Usman lol, out of 16 like 10 hall of famers and soo many former Champs and every Single one of them would beat the LHW champ nowadays its fucking insane nobody will ever have a resume that even comes close to BONES resume he Literally beat champ after champ and legend after legend at their own game and the LHW division was soo much better and deeper back than it is nowadays Jon Jones is by far the GOAT of MMA no one will ever get his resume or win as many titles as him he is a once of a lifetime fighter who was just born to do this, He made it into the UFC with only 4 months of MMA Training that fact alone is so fucking insane and teils you everything you need to know theres a reason Khabibs father said Jon Jones is a gift from god and Khabib picked Jon as his MMA GOAT

@@FinnMMA I agree he is the goat. But the sport is very young and I think someone will come around that will be better and surpass him

But did have at least 2 controversal wins and did a loot of steroids . Not that impressiv tbh

@@KhalilBalti-vv2imyou’re a bot . “Not that impressive “ is bullshit lmao stfu

@@KhalilBalti-vv2im *1 controversial win. So 10 straight clear title defenses, 1 controversial title defense (11 straight total) and current heavyweight champion is "not that impressive" to you?? Yeah your a hater 🤦🤦😂and an idiot

Its really interesting that there were alot of close call moments in all of Jones' title run. For example in the Sonnen fight, he broke his big toe and nearly snapped it off of him. If that fight made it to the end of the round, ref wouldve probably stopped it and Chael wouldve been champ. If Anthony Smith made an Aljo when he got kneed he wouldve been champ too. And of course the other controversial wins

​@@KhalilBalti-vv2im😂 if it's that easy why don't everyone do it

The best at poking out his opponents eyes.

even himself lol

Not until he meets a kung fu grand master.

The best at cheating and getting away with it you mean?

outside the octagon he still one of the worst people in mma history, what you think people will remember more ? his 10 title defenses with 3 of them being robbed or all the 400 times that he was arrested or caught on drugs

And Neeew🎉

he wasnt really athletic until he started doing roids. Honestly Jones is extremely overrated

Was the guy never fights RETIRE THEN

probably just surprised the hell out of every opponent

Will get Gane by flying triangle - you read it here first 😂

Literally every fighter uses PEDs, I guess it’s really good for body recovery Jones just got very unlucky with the timing of his tests. Anyone who brings up his failed tests is just a hater imo.

@@jackpackage4278lmao what😂

@@danielphinnemore3454 look up the interview when Chael talks about it. This is a known thing look it up.

no, not at all.

@@danielphinnemore3454he said almost every fighter is using PEDS, and that the timing of the tests were not in his favor compared to other fighters, then he said people bring it up to discredit him, not that hard to follow along bud

Jones cheated multiple times in the past, both with PEDs and eye-pokes. Permanent asterisks on his legacy, his last fights showed he is not that guy anymore. Considering how shitty of a person he is, and the fact he's an unrepentant cheat, I hope he loses at Heavyweight to Gane who is 10 times the person Jones is, and is far more deserving of that belt and greatness. Jones is scum who belongs in a jail cell.

He’s by for the best Peekaboo fighter of all time

@@spikenomoon Jon Jones isn't a Peekaboo fighter lol. Not sure you know what that means.

He probably will because Daddy Dana cleared Francis out for him

Naw never after hearing what he does to his wife the steriods the coke he lost alot of respect

hahhahaha

He’s never fighting heavyweight unless it’s Curtis blaydes for the interim title lol he’s posturing like he wants that francis fight right now cause francis and the ufc can’t agree on a contract but he turned that fight down twice already making up some bs about money but he’s not hurting for money that bad if he can take 3 years off to lift weights 🤷‍♂️😅 I mean for real the dude is acting like he needed to gain 50 lbs he walks around at 235 same Weight stipe fought at for years give or take a few pounds .. Cain Velasquez was 6 foot flat and 240 and was a monster ... Jon has always been big enough to fight heavyweight he just never wanted to because his height reach and weight advantage at 205 was part of what made him so dominating... well that and pictograms😅 but against men his size that hit like a truck he knows one mistake and it’s night night and that’s his biggest fear ... he will find a way out of that francis fight mark my words if the ufc and francis get a deal done that dude will end up in prison for beating a homeless person to death or some shit lol anything to avoid that fight cause he knows

@@michaelzeigler3733 get a girlfriend bro or find a better job

@@austinbatton4849 CLAP his CHEEKS!!

@@michaelzeigler3733 CLAP his CHEEKS!!

It’s a brutal move to pull off as well. Can destroy an arm easily

Dan's face reaction to it just shows how brutal it is too.

Clearly Reyes beat him

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.

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

Last one was Gustafsson

He was on 3 year hiatus before choking out Cyril Gane

his number fucking matter if its title defences

He also fought most of them in their primes

but he has the best numbers?

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

@@ohiostatebuck33 That's my point!!!

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

Lol go coach him then

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.

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

"Literally" every beast the UFC? Even lightweights and heavyweights? Or just in his weight class? You should Google the definition of literally

@@yeahright2449 you know what he meant

he was using steroids his whole career. irrelevantř

@@_youucantstopme_9922 jews knocked down the twin towers and now we are their slaves. Irrelevant

@@AngeloWyza I took his comment literally lol

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.

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

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 🐐

They ain't gonna show the highlights from that fight in when he returns lol

ngl I love Jon, But he straight up lost that fight

I would’ve said its a draw cause they both looked ready to go even after the fight.

Oh, we got a salty Reyes fan over here! We got one!

@@TheAntManChannel Reyes doesn't have fans anymore. Dude is not even that great to begin with and he's washed. How come Jones lost to that guy?

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.

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🐐

go check "shogun greatest year" video from ufc channel...then watch how jon did rua in their fight. Then you realize what a monster he is

Looks like the goat is returning bro

Watch a full match then you know why jones wins

​@@mysticmac4244you clearly didn't watch it.

Yea Reyes didn’t win

@@austinbatton4849 statistically, according to how the fights are scored, reyes should have won 3-2

@@azadog1233 idk was close, i think its a draw or jones takes it since he is the champ

@@zabban draw could have happened, but secondly what is that logic. Where in the rulebook does it say that the challenger has to perform even better than just a win over the champ

and alot of them were in they're prime
