    The way Machida slumps to the ground while Jon walks away will always be iconic and symbolic of how dominant of a fighter he was. And it’s crazy how anytime he took someone down, whether it was a traditional wrestling single/double leg takedown or even just pulling guard, his opponent was going for a ride. Dude has freak strength.

My favorite fight here is probably the thiago santos fight because it was an elite display of jon's kickboxing and mauy thai. 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

    Seeing prime Jones versus guys like Machida, Evans, Vitor and even a previously HW Cormier really reminds you what a massive advantage he had in size.

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

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💯

    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.
