Jon Jones is the metta world peace of mma

Michael Jordan is not the best player of all time, so I can agree with this.

??????

 

[MescalineDreams]

Nah, more like the Lance Armstrong. GSP is the closest thing we have to a Michael Jordan.

the irony is strong in this statement

 

[the gorilla]

Jon Jones is the Dexter Manley of mma

 

[puppybird]

That can’t be true because Michael Jordan is not the Jon Jones of Basketball

I'm pretty sure Travis Lutter is.

He was the MJ of BJJ, not MMA.

 

[Dirge]

It is an unfortunate truth that as the casual MMA fans wander off to the next iteration of American Ninja, the long term fans will have relegated Jon Jones to a footnote in MMA history.

We will be talking about him like we did about Mark Kerr....

 

[BigMuffler]

Michael Johnson is the Michael Jordan of MMA striking.

 

[chitoortiz]

He was the MJ of BJJ, not MMA.

Why not both?

If MMA fights were only 1 round Travis Lutter would be the GOAT

Not really. You're implying that a fighter who has never failed a PED test should be categorized as a cheater. By that logic MMA doesn't have a Michael Jordan, as all of them should be black-balled like the Anderson Silvas and Jon Joneses.

lance armstrong was never caught either, hence the irony

He has since been proven (through eyewitness testimony and his own admission) of being a cheater. Hence the lack of parallels and therefore irony.

how long did that take again ?

time to take off the rose coloured glasses sir

 

[Lukn4trbl]

He's more like the Cheech and Chong of the UFC.

So we should refrain from crediting anyone as the Michael Jordan of MMA because they might one day prove to be PED cheats? Interesting logic.

He has the athleticism to dunk, but his jumping technique here is just awful. lol His right leg was damn near straight when he jumped, taking his quads and hams completely out of the equation making it laboured from use of the calf only

Cheating bastard.
