Listen, I don't make the rules.
No real champion refuses to fight the number one contender.
One would think the promotion would've stepped in and fixed this by now

How does it feel to be part of the damage control team for a lost cause? Must be tiresome.In the minds of weirdos on a karate forum, maybe.

Jon has taken either (sort of) underesveable L's like against Hamil, or deservable like Gus, Reyes or Santos.If we focus on MMA and skip all the bullshit from JJ on the side:
Fought dirty in his first title defense and had Rampage wondering what the ref was up to, taking away focus from his opponent's gameplan
Fought his wrestler-boxer mentor in Rashad Evans and cut all ties with him, showed no respect etc,
Lost to Gus according to the vast majority

And later Jones came up with the lamest of excuses "I fought at 80%" which fans dismissed and soon demanded Gus to be on the new UFC game cover

Fought dirty against Glover because people now doubted him as the true champ, early on he tried to sneak in eye pokes to get an advantage,
In the rematch with Gus he went straight for a low blow which Gus said affected his whole leg, hitting the nerves of the groin. And after that wrestled as soon as he could,
Had to cheat against Anthony Smith, who was too earnest to take the DQ win after an insane illegal knee from a frustrated Jones,
Had a split decision with Thiago Santos, where a majority saw Santos as the winner. Close fight but of course JJ got the nod as per usual,
Lost to Dominick Reyes according to the vast majority

Later said "Dominick, don't ever question me or the judges. Look at your own heart and endurance, what seperates us two...",
Took three whole years to feel secure enough for an eventual HW fight, and who knows what he did in this long lead-up,
Demanded to fight a retired and current firefighter to get himself a title defense at HW, instead of proving himself against the current elite of the division
One of us!As long as those checks keep cashing, I have the time and energy!
is that really how you weirdos think? any time someone doesn’t agree or is opposite of your opinion when it comes to MMA or UFC/Dana related topics you folks automatically think they’re some UFC employee going undercover? fucken hell, not everyone on here has lost their cognitive ability due to emotional stress because of someone name Jon Jones or Dana WhiteHow does it feel to be part of the damage control team for a lost cause? Must be tiresome.
How is Aspinall vs. Almeida meaningful? The whole reason Jones is able to get away with not signing for an Aspinall fight is that there is no other meaningful opponent for Aspinall to fight. That's also why Texeira, with no meaningful wins, is two wins away from a title shot, maybe one if the UFC gets really desperate. So long as there is no other opponent that can sell even 150K PPVs headlining against Tom and there is some small chance that Jones eventually signs, he won't be stripped.Absolutely don't care about his legacy.
GOAT? Sure, great.
Fraud, cheater, garbage human being? Okay, fine with that too.
There is zero reason for me to care about his legacy. Just wish he wasn’t being such a cunt about the current situation so we could get some meaningful HW fights.
Looks like a pigeon to me.What bird is that?
Well, without the new head that is.
You can give the other new bird a name too if you wish.
i don’t know bro, Boxers get stripped all the time for not fighting the next contender. Saul Alvarez was just stripped, so he must not be a real champ also.Listen, I don't make the rules.
