Is Jon Jones's win streak still active?

[snackgod]

Until Jones wins his next fight.

nope. there a no contest at ufc 214. jon on a 3 fight win streak

 

[snackgod]

it's technically also a Jon jones record because he's currently on a 16 fight win streak.

no it a 16 unbeatin streak. jon has a 3 fight win streak right now.

 

[snackgod]

Technically yes.

An NC doesn't break a win streak or an undefeated streak (the clue is in the name: no contest. It doesn't count)

E.g. Fedor had a 27 fight win streak, despite the NC in the 2nd Nogueira fight.

However. In reality Jon Jones is a cheat so none of his wins count.

A draw breaks a win streak, but not an undefeated streak.

no fedor went unbeatin for 27 fights.

NC essentially means the fight "officially" never happened. It doesn't interrupt a win streak. It also doesn't count toward an unbeaten streak. For all intents and purposes, it doesn't exist.

After surfing around the fight matrix, I realize that they still count Jon jones win streak as active. which means he's going to break Anderson silva 16 fight win streak if he wins his next fight. And would also set the record for the most title wins in ufc history.

so what do you think?

Nope!
Once you POP you STOP.

He got a Dq, Nc and usada got him few times... I consider him undefeated and his streak is legit even if I don't like him as a person.

Anderson Silva’s UFC record 16 fight win streak will never be broken

Ferg is only 4 wins away

 

[Katsumi Yamada]

Ferg is only 4 wins away

But to match that record he'll probably have to beat Khabib twice in the next four fights

 

[FloydMayweatherMMA]

it's technically also a Jon jones record because he's currently on a 16 fight win streak.

Incorrect, dude. According to official records, he hasn't won all 16 of his last 16 fights, so he's not on a 16 fight win streak.

I think this is similar to the notion that a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square. Its similar but different criteria. I see what you're saying though. In my mind he's undefeated. But we have to go by others people's rules.

Essentially doesn't it amount to all the same thing a unbeaten streak in which you've never loss is a win streak. If those who want to count the Matt Hammell dq as loss you could, but still a win streak every fight after that...

 

[Shabutie]

How is it active when he's popped and stripped of title for drug cheating?

 

[Nightwish]

Fixed

I like Walker, but i hope Reyes does it first.

 

[Captain Herb]

And an NC isn't a lost.... Thus legal loopholes!

But it's A WIN steak, not a no-loss streak
