DDP says Jon Jones doesn't need to prove anything else

[Luffy]

"People are sure Aspinall will beat him, but how? No one has been able to do so since he started in 2008... He went vs Gane who people said 'oh a real HW, now that's it's and Jon Jones went there, seeming out of shape and he made it look like child's play. That shows his mentality is a different animal, that is what makes a champion. But then you have Tom Aspinall, same mentality too, young hungry. I mean, at his age, Jon Jones just doesn't need to prove anything... He has done it all. At some stage you, you have to give over the, yeah, give it over, at some stage... Like, Jon Jones is one of those guys who has beaten everybody, and people are like "you have to fight Tom Aspinall, or you don't want to fight Tom Aspinall", yeah but remember how many of those Aspinalls he has fought in the past? He has been at the top for how long? Exactly, he's taking on guys coming in, guys that retired already... That all have in common that he's beaten. He is like the Valentino Rossi of UFC. He doesn't need anything else. "

DDP would melt his brain.
and get soundly beaten afterwards.

 

[Get To Da Choppa]

He is like the Valentino Rossi of UFC. He doesn't need anything else. "

Most Americans won't get this reference, so Jon Jones still has something to prove until he's been compared to Michael Jordan

 

[Bob Gray]

Its true. Jones has nothing to prove. He's on the tail end of his career but his legacy has been sealed. Anything else is icing. Yeah, the cry-babies will tantrum-argue about whatever nonsense point theyll bring up to try to pretend his legacy isnt intact, but their opinions are largely worthless outside their little cry-circles.

 

[Young Calf Kick]

Then vacate the fucking belt and begone.

 

[WelcometoHell]

He absolutely has to prove he's better than Aspinall because he has the heavyweight belt

 

[kingghidrah]

So is he saying Jon never has to fight again? and can just hold the HW belt forever?

Yea it is pretty solid tbh failing 5 tests 3 separate times and still not thrown out of the goat conversations is a pretty solid resume

 

[ThaiSexPills]

If he wants to continue to hold the HW belt, he has to prove he’s the best in the division. That’s how titles work.

You don’t just get to hold a title because you were a great LHW. If he vacated it, I wouldn’t give a shit. I think ducking Tom hurt his legacy tbh. Him smashing Tom would mean more than any other fight in his career. No other GOAT’s did what he did at the end of his career.

do you have a brain bruh?
do you even realize that what your saying is imposible?

 

[TimeToTrain]

Jones was beating old fighters out of their prime when he was young. Let him be in that position now and see if he can handle younger talent.

 

[StoicBeau]

Certainly he was the only fighter of his era to ever fail a drug test.

23 year old beating grown men juiced to the gills.

But let’s not discuss that.

 

[Trabaho]

No fighter needs to prove anything. Just get in there if you decide it.

 

[AbominableJoman]

I just all respect for the goat african fighter!

 

[Thepaintbucket]

I mean if you're going to hold a championship belt and then decide to fight everyone except Worthy contenders, what do you call this exactly?

Nobody who is a realist is questioning his previous accomplishments. They are simply asking him to defend the belt against the number one contender.

 

[mangokush]

Jones is certainly the LHW GOAT but his reign at HW is nothing but a farce

You mean:

29 wins 0 losses
2 division champion
Broke the record of title defenses in all categories

No fighter has a better record than 29-0. No fighter is more than a 2 division champion. No fighter defended more than him. Speaking currently ofc.

So.... Any crying about these facts that you feel like doing?

 

[Neck&Neck]

If he retires everybody will say “he was sHoOk”
If he fights Aspinall and loses everybody will say “He was never good”
His only option is winning

 

[Luffy]

No he doesn't. There isn't a clause that says that Undisputed champion needs to fight the interim champion if the undisputed champion decides to retire. He came, he saw, conquered, the wear and tear, fought many opponents that are elite, defeated all people of his size which was part of the criticism... He has done it all. He is the undisputed champion, Tom Aspinall's belt makes him more than a #1 ranked guy, in essence. Because a #1 doesn't have to get the title fight at the very next fight, an interim champion does. But the undisputed champion had already said that Stipe would be his last time even before he got injured, has gotten all he could, so he can give the belt up and Tom becomes the Undisputed... Much like GSP did... So yes, he can.

 

[Luffy]

Can you listen to English? He said "there's a time that fighters need to give it up, there's always the next and the next generation"... It stands for the belt. Ofc he wouldn't say he would be with the belt without ever fighting again while Tom works for him lmaooooo ...... Come on, be serious, man. This shit is funny
