Alex Gustafsson: "Jon Jones is the biggest enemy of all time"

[Shercatter]

​

Turns out Alexander "the former criminal" Gustafsson is not a big fan of Jonny Bones and his antics. Isn't this somewhat hypocritical in light of the fact that Alex served 15 months in a Swedish Prison for GBH? In fact he has a number of convictions for aggravated assault and other felonies. I feel like there is a bit of a double standard in the MMA community regarding the past lives of some of the fighters versus some of the current antics people like Jones get up to. I am not excusing either for the record.

EDIT:

>isn't it somewhat hypocritical that a former criminal who has completely reformed and turned his life around since then said he isn't a fan of Jones and his antics

no

They're both terrible people in a terrible division, imo.

 

[tombombadil]

One guy is reformed, the other guy not so much

This is the answer. If Jon turned his shit around he would still have some haters, but the masses would forgive him.

Jones is a terrible person, Gus is not

ends there

I'm sure Alex isn't proud over the things he did when he was younger. The big difference is that Alex was a teenager back then. Has he not been a class act ever since he first debuted in the UFC?

Um, that's not a double standard, it's just a standard, hence the PAST LIVES and CURRENT ANTICS parts there. Jones has kids ffs and he's still doing all this shit.

 

[bladee]

that is pretty rich coming from the repeat woman attacker and stomper of innocent heads. jon has never done anything malicious

 

[KONE]

49-46 Jones

I like Jones and his antics, just reminding everyone that Gustafsson has never lied

[Deleted member 220895]

It's like Hitler complaining about Stalin.

Couldn't have made a more accurate analogy.
