Jon Jones has retired from MMA.

Tom Aspinall is promoted to Undisputed UFC Heavyweight Champion.

Thoughts?
>>
RAPE JON JONES
>>
GOATED. Aspinall will go down as an English Tim Sylvia. Maybe had old man Jones with his youth and athleticism but never prime Jon Jones.

17 top UFC fighters still recognised by their last names alone, what a resume.

Jones fought more DA cases than actual heavyweight defenses (against Francis Ngannou's sloppy seconds.) Not My GOAT.

Why are you lying?

>>234994
who the fuck cares

>>234994
Someone needs to kill this faggot. He is so fucking annoying.
>>
>>235713
He might wind up doing that himself with his reckless behavior
>>
>>235434
Where is the lie? He roided this fight lmao

>>235127
No good names except DC who he robbed and roided against, would have lost to Ankalaev and Blachowicz easily, maybe even Pereira
>>
>>235434
Personally wouldn't fight jones, unless it was just a knee kicking contest. which will leave both fucked

Hard to respect that guy. He's a champion in one of the weakest Heavyweight divisions ever. You'd teleport that guy back to peak Pride FC he'd got mauled. Not even by the big boys but by second-rate guys like Kevin Randleman.

So what the fuck you want Tom to do? Travel back in time? This argument is peak casual bullshit. You can only beat the people in your era. So unless you have a time machine, shut the fuck up.
And Kevin was a damn good fighter in his prime, so him beating Tom wouldnt be the insult you think it was.

Honestly disappointed. To me he truly was the best, I started watching Tuf in 8th Grade back in 09 and got into MMA he was the baddest man on the planet back then and it's crazy he remained that for so long. Never really agreed with the arguments for Gustaffson, but I do think Reyes could have gone either way, depends on how you feel about beat the man to be him adage. Fighting him was just fucking combat, if he doesnt knock you out with a bow, then he's going to oblique kick you into PT, which i never understood how that legal. As for the roids who gives a shit, in the word of Cody No Love " you showed us all how to use EPO back at Alpha Male", most fighters are on Roids or T, Nate said it too, shit even Rampage just copped to it, its too hard to tell who isn't, so its just safe to assume most are. I personally think he woulda Smashed Tom, and that now that Jon is gone Tom's legacy is going to go from GOAT Killer to very unspectacular and short lived. With all that being said this does leave a sour taste in my mouth, I wouldn't describe this as anything other than fear on Jon's part, but also at the same time he's reigned as a dominant final boss for over a decade amassing quite a hit list, does he have to take more damage for a bunch of cackling dickheads who will probably just shit on him anyway. That's been the truly sickening part of all this, all these internet sheep who get to gang up on something they can collectively hate, so they think it's okay to denigrate a storied career. I never really called myself a vocal fan till all these people decided it was fashionable to shit talk a legend.

Well Jones has done a lot to erode the good will of fans over the years. He has received beyond favorable treatment despite saying and doing deplorable shit. IIRC he and Josh Barnett are the only champs who got stripped for PEDs. The UFC cancelled an entire event because of him. And then there's the eye poking and other stuff that didnt get called by refs even though some of it was blatant. Also, his behavior outside the cage is even worse, if you want to hold that against him.
Jones is undoubtedly a great fighter but there always will be several asterisks next to his name. Its just how it is. He did that to himself.
As for Tom, he deserved a shot at the belt but since Jones turned down 30 million to face him, he never got the chance. But at least Jones gave the belt up to allow the division to move along. I think Tom will have a few defenses as i dont think anyone currently at HW beats him.

spams that knee kick too much.
