Forrest Griffin was a more legit win a weight class up than Stipe and Gane will be for Jones

Forrest actually was the champion till he got beat and fought Anderson Silva right after. Gane was never undisputed and Stipe is coming out of retirement at 42.

Those wins(or possible wins) are in different worlds of quality and it is impossible for Jon to look better than Anderson did vs Griffin....
 
Let's see Jon do this to Stipe

Forrest was strung out on pills. He was a mess. He just got KO'ed senseless by Hashad right before this.

Lol at "just got KO'd senseless right before this". He got TKO'd on the ground in a title fight he was winning like 8 months before. KO'd senseless would be what happened to the guy Jon is about to fight.

Yes, Gane who has only lost to Jon Jones and Francis Ngannou is not a "legit win".

Why didn't everyone else just beat him then?

He isn't very active. I think Volkov is taking the win back against him, he looked great against Pav. This is coming from someone who had high hopes for Gane. The other sloppy fat guys he beat like Tai he should have beat and he got dropped against Tuivasa, who I think we can all agree is not very good even though he was ranked #3 at one time(!)

Dude, his head was being used as a basketball by Hashad. He was knocked senseless. The ending sequence is similar to Stipe getting KO'ed by Francis. Cartoonish.

Can you read? I just said more legit win. It is 100% more legit to beat a guy who just had the belt than to beat a guy that retired after losing the belt.
