Media Jon Jones broken toe against Chael Sonnen

[Habib The Eagle]

Steroid cheat or not Jon Jones is tough as they come

Probably coked up and numb to the pain.

 

[Marko Polo]

This really needed to be posted again?

 

[BobblyStruggles]

Nasty as fuck.
Chael did the most damage to Jones, this fight was a robbery.

 

[13Seconds]

This was the last time his offensive wrestling looked truly dominant in a fight

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

Chael almost became a 2 weight champ

 

[Summoning]

Tough?, if he broke his toe wrestling with Chael is because he is soft.

 

[rodkek]

WTF why did it move like that

The best possible thing would have been if Chael himself seen it, and told Jones before he went back to his corner.

Teh lulz.

 

[Phisher]

He didn't even realize that it happened until the he saw it and the post-fight adrenaline dump kicked in.

This led to one of the best inappropriate Rogan post-fight interviews. Imagine sticking a microphone in a guy's face when he's freaking out because one of his digits is hanging by a thread.

That toe was pretty bad but Jones has always been a tough dude.

Really wish they would all stop messing around and do the Francis fight. We all want to see it. If Francis wins Jones would be done, if Jones wins there are some amazing fights to come at HW. Too bad neither side can just do it, they are both complaining so much it is both their faults.

 

[Athlas]

The great ones always find a way to win. Jones is the greatest of them all.
His haters till this day are still traumatized by the punishment Jones inflicted on their favorite heros.
These degenerates have spent more than a decade waiting for Jone's demise.

 

[MetalMilitia]

Chael, 27 seconds from LHW champ, and 1:50 from MW champ.

Crazy shit.

Gotta think the ref would have called the fight if he'd noticed Jones' toe nearly 90 degrees in the other direction. Chael by TKO....

 

[La Elefante]

If the ref never stopped that fight, Sonnen would have dethroned Jones.

The amount of lucky breaks Jones has had throughout his career is insane.

-Vitor Armbar
-Gustafsson decision
-Reyes decision
-Steroid failures
-Drunk driving

Chael, 27 seconds from LHW champ, and 1:50 from MW champ.

Crazy shit.

In both scenarios he is a loser.

The career of a total loser.

 

[SherdogFan23]

Jones level of fighting went down by a notch after this injury.

If the ref never stopped that fight Sonnen would not be alive now.

It's been forever since I've seen that and god damn is that ruthless.

What's crazy is that this has literally never happened before or after - we've seen multiple leg breaks (Corey Hill/Anderson/Weidman) including ones outside the UFC, but this is the only instance I can think of in all of MMA where a guy sprawled so hard that he snapped his own big toe in half....unreal.
