I've been on these forums for 20 years. I've never seen hatred quite like people have towards Jon Jones

Which of those happened when one guy was the champ and the other was the interim champ and instead of fighting the interim champ, the champ decided to pull a guy out of retirement?

Funny you didn't add that detail though.
The details i can add are Khabib was so scared of WW, he was trying to fight old GSP at LW. GSP retired immediately because of Whittaker. I don't need to add the detail you want because to add that others should come to that level. Jones at least beat an old GOAT after beating Cyril Gane, who is a great fighter. He is 10 steps ahead of Khabib(title defenses matters) and one step ahead of GSP. But i agree Fedor getting ko'd by a MW is a better achievement so he is the GOAT
<JonesLaugh>
 
The influx of stress induced meltdown posting and coping by crying grown ass men while this dude takes years off their lives living rent free is something to behold.
 
Nah man, people hated Khabib so badly and were so desperate that he would lose. The only reason why? Because he is a Muslim fighter.
Reason number 1: They hate Khabib because his fans think MMA is jihad and all they talk about is insallahs allahu akbars. You hear christian fighters talk about Jesus but fans doesn't say bs like beat him in the name of Jesus, Christian power etc.

Reason Number 2: While other GOAT candides defended their title close to a decade and fought at higher weight class, Khabib did none of these and his fans think he is the goat just because he is muslim.

So the only reason of the Khabib hate is his fans are retarded, disingenuous and have no shame.
 
I honestly can't think of any other UFC fighter that can compete with him:

Connor, Colby, Sean Strickland, Izzy, Ronda Rousey: All these people had hate, but it had more to do with their personality or social media antics, or it had more to do with their fanbase and their somewhat outrageous delusional and combative takes on here.

But Jon Jones I really see it tonight. People with deep rooted emotion want to see him lose and get hurt BADLY, and they will take any fighter who can do that to him.

Hi Captain Obvious, amazing observation skills!
 
I mean, I get it. Jones is obviously not a great person. From the eye pokes to the failed drug tested to his awful out of ring behaviour. Jones is pretty much a piece of shit. And to make things worse he never loses. If he had a few losses on his record he would get much less hate. But this ass hole keeps winning lol.

Nothing worse than a piece of shit that never loses
 
Always happens after a fight, the same idiots calling him the GOAT and great are the ones who were rooting against him prior to the fight, no more Sherdog, it’s FickleDog now.
 
Jones never beat anybody any good. He only beat old men like Shogun and Rampage or middleweights like Belfort, Machida and Evans. He only beat DC because he made DC sap his strength by moving down to LHW and refused to fight him at his true FAT weight. Everyone else he fought was either no good to start with or he lost to them.
Besides, he took steroids like the majority of champions everybody roots for but he got caught.

Am I doing it right, Sherdog?
 
i think his fans are bad as his haters TBH, they look for any tiny excuse to try and call someone racist because they dont like someone who has a long list of crimes

he is a great great fighter, the likes of which we may not see again in our lifetimes, but as a human he is dreadful

i would have no problem with him retiring now, he isnt going to be considered anything special at HW and the Aspinall fight is VERY risky for him
 
Yeah this tends to happen when you abuse steroids and beat your wife. Funnily enough that bothers people more than some mean words.
 
Don’t let my joined date fool you. I’ve been on here since probably late 90’s. And yes I dont agree with everything he’s said or done but I can’t deny he’s the GOAT.
We talking about Trump right?
 
odd title given the hate towards Conor McGregor here is unreal even if he does not help himself with his antics.

the sharks waiting in the water for the successful usually bank on such downfalls as the day JJ loses (if he does) sherdog will be quite the place
 
He's the best mixed martial artist I've ever seen... but he is an incredibly unlikeable individual.
 
Jones was driving a rental car when he struck another vehicle, breaking the arm of pregnant woman inside. Jones then proceeded to leave the scene of the accident without waiting for authorities to arrive.

This type of human being who is the cause of the traffic accident in the first place and who also tries to escape from the scene is among the worst unempathetic human beings in general. So cowardly not to take responsibility.

For this reason and a host of other reasons that have really shown that he is not really a good person.

The question is how normal people can be fans of him.
Exactly. Guy assaulted his wife too in front of his kids, forcing his own kids to call the cops on him.

It blows my mind how sick in the head Jon Jones fans have to be to like this guy.

I came back just to see if the hatred was still flowing....was not disappointed.
 
So you don't think the criticism is justified? that he cherry picked a corpe stipe who is irrelevant in the HW division while ducking the top contender?
The Stipe v Jones fight was made before Tom beat Tybura, Pavolich and Blaydes!

Jones was injured and fought the fight the UFC brass wanted him to last night in the first place!

Now he’s negotiating his next fight! How has he ducked?

Okay but you see how that's not the same since Khabib didn't refuse to fight an interim champ, right?

Of course not, your head is shoved up Jones' ass, you probably don't see much of anything in there
 
Not hating him, even for his antics outside the UFC, shit happens

But he's a fraud and extremely overrated.
Beat some Old middle weights like rashad, machida, rampage. Who cares

Lose to Reyes, Santos, Gus and get Lucky with judges, allowed to take steroids etc.

Go 5 rounds with jokers like I don't even know their name, OSP, Smith? comeon I would compete with them too

Ofc UFC is a company and not a sport, we are supposed to believe that he's he best and that steroids doesn't matter (Lol)

See this is that gas lighting shit y'all be doing. And no I'm not defending Jon's actions. I'm just putting them into perspective and giving content.

Why do you pretend that Jon INTENTIONALLY sought out a pregnant woman driving and hit her? Why? Why can't Jon be a normal person who had an accident and panicked and ran and coincidentally he hit a pregnant woman? Millions of Americans pull hit and runs every year because they panic. Police officers, teachers, pastors, teenagers, community leaders, parents all do the same things and we can empathize with them and give them a pass.

For comparison to other MMA fighters. Chael IS A convicted felon and admitted drug cheat and he gets a pass. Chael was ripping off regular everyday working people and roped his mother into it and when shit hit the fan he not only snitched but he literally wore a wire. Chael also beat his wife in a hotel in LV and we have multiple eye witnesses with no affiliation to the UFC or Chael including security guards, front desk workers and bellhops that saw Chael drunk and angry and chael's wife bleeding but because chael's wife says nothing happened he gets a pass. When Jon gets into a similar situation and Jon's wife and oldest daughter repeatedly say that Jon didn't put his hands on anyone they are lying? Selective hate much? Cognitive dissonance going on?

Gus went to prison for robbery and assault on a woman and her boyfriend but that never gets broughten up because "Gus changed." How do you know? You've never met gus behind the scenes. You've never talked to him privately. But when he makes racist comments about Rumble after Rumble knocked him senseless y'all ran to his defense.

Josh Barnett is the king of MMA steroid use and y'all never bring that up when talking about him.

For everything jon has done I can find another MMA fighter that has done worse and the MMA community gives them passes. But not Jon. And not defending Jon. Jon's punishments have fit his crimes. You want Jon in prison for a hit and run? Would you feel the same way if that was your dad, brother, cousin or son? Would you be pushing for prison or defending them? If you said prison you're a god damn liar.

Like I said I'm not defending Jon. I'm attacking all the people who try and gaslight this community into thinking Jon is on the same level as a Jon son, war machine or even lee Murray when it comes to scumbagness.
