It's.... complicated. I've watched since the start of his career and used to be a HUGE fan. It was exciting watching a new guy reach goat level status in real time. But then all the scandals... I was still a fan. That didn't involve fighting. But then the ped busts...

Kinda turned me into a hater for years. I'm very anti cheating and poor sportsmanship. Going up to hw and becoming champ has sorta made me a fan again. It's very confusing.

Are you hoping he wins against Stipe or loses? For his possible retirement fight

Hoping he wins :(

I'm just a fan of greatness. Like when Mayweather was on his last few fights, I was hoping he wouldn't get hit with something stupid. And I don't like him lol. But he was so close to the perfect run. Stipe is past his best and won't ever be the GOAT. Jon could potentially, so despite everything I don't want something to fuck it up last minute.

But he was smart and waited for Stipe to get old. I think Stipe is done and Jon will smash him IF the fight happens.
 
He's a dreadful man but a terrific fighter.

I tend to like flawed / awful humans who are sports stars, I find them more interesting.

But for some reason I don't like Jones, I think it's because he doesn't own those flaws, would rather try and pretend they're not there and pull the wool over people's eyes.

In short I like my sports stars flawed but honest.
 
Agreed
Theres lots of celebrities that you can separate the art from the artist with
Not gonna lie, R Kelly made some pretty good music and has a great voice, but he is still a POS molester. I don't know if the allegations against Michael Jackson are true, but he is easily one of the GOAT entertainers with immense talent.
None of the allegations against Michael Jackson are true. Another truly great man.

Well put lol
“I believe I can fly” & “Ignition Pt. 2” still bumps.
But yeah he’s definitely a piece of shit :p

Yes I like him.GOAT fighter, intelligent, soft spoken, and i DGAF about his stunts in his private life, because i am not a karen.
 
I want to like him. And there are things about him that I do like. But do I like Jon Jones overall? No.

I used to be a big fan and defended him for years, but after so many incidents where he acted like a psychopath I just couldn't continue. I don't even remember which one was the final straw, but it's been awhile. Multiple DUI, one where he injured a pregnant woman and then ran off. Continuous disrespect and at least one case of abuse toward his "fiance". Drugs and partying. Unsafe behavior towards his coaches and training partners. Eye pokes. Gas station dick pills. Picograms. The list goes on.
 
I don't like him as a person. I don't think he's someone I'd like to have in my inner circle of friends. If he started a podcast I wouldn't tune in to hear his take on the world.

I love him as a fighter. As a fight fan I want to see greatness. I want brilliant performances. Jon was born for this sport. He's the greatest fighter we've seen to date. I don't know if it's possible to surpass what he's done.
 
Yes, because I'm watching MMA and any combat sport to see the best fighters, and Jones is the best, not only has he never been defeated in the true sense of the word, he has never ever been rocked or dropped in close to 30 pro fights against some of the best fighters ever. Thats insane. His skill level and talent is on another planet.
 
Early in his career I did.

Then he started hitting pregnant women with his car, cheating in fights, using illegal substances, etc. Stopped being a fan.
