Jon was moving around like Derrick Lewis.That was a clearly visibly declined Jon. Theres still something left in the tank and echoes of the greatness he once had but he is bloated, slower and way more hittable now. Stipe looked like he was barely awake and moving at half speed but still survived multiple rounds and caught Jon dozens of times.
People are impressed because he was fighting a guy who moved worse than 60 year old Mike Tyson.
Stipe got hit with 100 of the 120 strikes Jon threw. Zero movement, zero defense, zero desire to be there.
No shit Jon looked good against that.
