the best timeline is if stipe wins, goes on to say in post-fight interview "i have a belt, but i still didn't beat the champ, where are you tommy?" and then goes on to fight aspinall
Feel like no one would be shitting on the fight and it would be still just as big if the UFC stripped Jon a year ago and this fight was for a fake "goat" belt or something like that similar to the BMF. Not holding up the division, and we get to celebrate 2 all-time legends go at it and then retire.
*uck yeah! Jones is a coward for ducking Tom Aspinall. Imagine being a champion who's considered the best of all time, too afraid to face a man with an interim title in your own division who's strutting around like he's the true champ. In my mind Tom is the real heavyweight champ, Jones is just playing pretend right now.
At this point it's unwinnable for Jon. Even if he develops laser eyes and start flying people will still just remember the ducking and how old Stipe is. No one will care, not even the casuals because people who remember Jon/Stipe are not casuals, they are the people who have been watching UFC for a while.
this is the last breakdown?? i'm shocked honestly, these are my favourite videos on the channel. please keep doing them, even if it's on a personal yt page
Stipe has every chance of winning. He’s a true heavyweight, he’s mentally tough, well rounded, with a high Fight IQ and has knockout power. He’s been out of the fight game for a while but so has jones and the injury he had might come back to be a problem. It could go either way.
@@AJ-dasNot just beat him absolutely dogged walked Francis the first fight! I know in the end Francis got the best of him, but to do that to Francis isn’t easy.
Stipe did hit Francis in their second fight with a nice right hand that stopped Francis in his tracks and wobbled him for a half second and stipe knew it was a good hit so he came forward for some follow up and got absolutely smoked but he did hit him. So there’s a chance against jones.
STIPE = 20 wins *15 by KO* 😎 JONES = 25 wins _12_ by KO 😉 ^^^I removed his 'wins' against Santos and Reyes and included his loss/NC against DC and Hamill.
@@Matt_Mosley1983Jon is only credited with 10 "KO's" and those are all TKOs he's not known for stopping anyone with 1 punch/a big shot its usually muiltiple strikes
@allmightylowercasejay1138 i know, read the full post, I counted DC's head kick no contest and Matt Hamills disqualification Point is, Stipe has a much better KO/TKO ratio so my money is on him
Honestly prefer your analysis to many who do these breakdowns in a similar way. I don't know what you've trained (clearly you have) but this is Dan Hardy + level stuff. Great stuff mate
No, Stipe can pull off an upset. Any fighter can in any fight. If anything it’s “un-winnable” for jones, because if he wins fans say he beat washed stipe. If he loses or doesn’t dominate his legacy takes a huge blow
@ I was a jones fan until he popped right before ufc 200, I thought that would ruin him, fast forward to ufc 214 pop, 232 pop, and the Reyes fight, Jones’s legacy was able to survive a lot of controversy, but in my opinion anything other than stipe domination will really hurt him
Ohwell. Think of it this way, if Tom had the accolades to match Stipe or Jones, they wouldve fought. If Tom was here before Ciryl Gane was the #1 contender, they wouldve fought. Y'all can be mad all you want, I'm disappointed too, but get over it. This will still be a good fight.
@@desotohybrid2175Nah Jones is definitely a coward for not fighting Tom, but he isn't scared of em. He's more afraid of taking an L than he is of getting KO'd.
Anyone who counts Stipe out is insane. Idc if they're out of their prime itll be a great fight - Holloway and Justin, Chandler vs Charles/ Porier all were bangers, none of them were in their prime.
@@Devilm4n-cw8tv Right but that's in the lighter divisions, heavyweights can hang much longer because they dont use nearly as much twitchy muscle fibers.
If anyone is gonna beat Jones, it's likely to be someone with great footwork and punches, like Stipe. That being said, he's past his prime, and I'm aware that it's not very likely. But Stipe has surprised us before.
@cjparsons6748 Tom doesn't have the same skill as Stipe. He's great, I'm not taking anything away, and he's younger, and much faster and more powerful than Stipe.
Yes, anything is possible but not everything is probably. Serra beating GSP was possible, but not probable, hence the upset. But the next time they fought, GSP beat the brakes off of him because that was the most PROBABLE outcome. You say only “casuals” think that way. No, people that pay attention to skill and skill sets think that way. Jones just has a lot more tools than Stipe. Stipe is considered the GOAT at heavyweight for 5 title defenses. Bones is considered the GOAT period and has damn near 15. The two aren’t comparable.
@@pizzaburgerparty The only advantage Stipe has is that Jon struggles against anyone that isn't a Fat Middleweight. With Gane as the Exception of course.
@@Anteoni-g3lYes, power is useless if you can't actually get that power onto a person if they keep you at distance. Also he hasn't fought for years so who knows what state his power is even in not to mention his timing and speed.
This is my favorite video format on the channel and the platform in general I learn so much about the sport both technically and getting more familiar with my favorite fighters history of opponents I would hate for this to be the last one!!
Stipe win = Aspinall gets vacant HW belt as Stipe will retire. Jones win = Aspinall gets vacant HW belt as Jones will refuse to fight him and get stripped before retiring. Either way, this fight has killed the division.
What's wrong with you Aspinall fanatics, because you want to see a Miocic who will probably be 43 years old fighting a 31 year old Aspinall, where's the fun in that, because nobody roots for Stipe Miocic to win Jones and retire like a goat, everyone says that Jon Jones at 37 years old is wrong to fight Miocic and beat an old guy, now you want a Tom Aspinall 31 year old to do it, now I'm sure Jones shouldn't fight Aspinall!
@@krauserwolfgang4834 I literally said he won't get to fight either of them, leaving Aspinall with no one to fight. Jones and Miocic will both retire because they're both well over the hill, the fact they're fighting each other for the title is a joke.
I know Jon is really good and one of the best to do it and is probably going to beat up old Stipe, but I wanna talk about GSP dominating him in practice. I remember a number of jre episodes where Firas and Danaher both specifically mention Georges dominating very well-respected fighters in the wrestling room. They also implied that most people might not believe it since "some" of the fighters are much bigger and very respected for their grappling. That description matches Jones. I admit there isn't much evidence. No camp is going to let this get out because it'd ruin the reputation of their fighter or their gym. However, there are a few things that support this theory. GSP was known for going all over to work with the best coaches and camps, including Jackson Wink where Jon trained. Firas, Danaher, and I believe Gordon Ryan all mentioned Georges dominating this mystery fighter on separate occasions. And then the infamous video of Jon avoiding GSP at the club. I think we all agree it wouldn't be out of character for Jon to avoid someone who got the better of him in the training room. Anyways I'm just high and enjoying an mma on point video 👍
Jackson Wink was GSPs basically 2nd home gym. He spent his offseason in Montreal at TriStar, but would usually go do the last month or so of camp at JW before his fights for a number of years. Probably cause they had more pros to spar with while preparing But that’s why Greg Jackson was lead cornerman for many of GSPs fights during his prime years
If this fight was 5 years ago I'd have been interested.... actually I'd have been super excited. Now Stipe is 42 and Jon is 37...and Stipe is coming home off one win in last 5 years...oh and hasn't fought in 4 years.... Yeah that's not anything I wanna see I'm afraid. 😢
Let's just pray this fight actually happens. So they can stop holding up the heavyweight division. Jones loves saying Aspinall and the rest haven't done anything. That's because you and Stipe have been holding up the division for the past 6 years.
I always thought this was a bad stylistic matchup for Stipe but he's always been an underdog and made a career of never being the best in one area (speed, power, boxing, wrestling etc) but somehow piecing it all together.
Stipe said that he has never felt better and that he is stronger than ever. Now I am sure that he is slower a bit, busy so is Jones with extra pounds. I think Stipe will track Hines like gazelle and KO him. Tue only way for Jones to KO Stipe is by knee to the head and grown and pound.
Jon is right about one thing: Stipe is not to be underestimated. I'd be so interested to see what the fight looks like, too bad it's on US time though. But at the end of the day I think Jon wins by unanimous decision, or split. I see it going to the scorecards, and I think it'll be a really tough fight for both men, and if we're lucky, it becomes an all time classic fight. I want Stipe to win, but I believe Jon will squeak it out.
I’m legitimately surprised we made it through a 45 minute breakdown video without mentioning Jon’s greatest defensive weapon against boxers. The illegal eye poke.
MMA gods bless us with stipe checking the first leg kick snapping Jon’s leg like silva did, stipes the champ, Dana says in the presser the only fight that make sense is the rematch in 3 years when Jon is better, Tom leaves the ufc, sleeps all 22 Pfl heavyweights in 8 months, comes back to the ufc, they both old man grapple to a draw, setting up the most BAD ASS TRILOGY EVER, everrrrrr
2:00 Reaching for kicks over and over is a bad move against a good high kicker. It would be EASY to set him up for a head kick if he were fighter a really good kicker.
Poor Aspinall needs to wait so much for that belt time is precious in UFC and who knows after whoever wins when they gonna defend or held that belt hostage till they get stripped
I think it could be close. If you look at Jon’s previous fights, it seems like he annihilates the “tough competition” and when we think he’s got an easy fight he just barely wins by decision. Who knows…
Corny as it may sound, watching Jones fight is truly a work of art. Don't think any other fighter has thrown that many different techniques throughout their career. Remember when people thought Conor invented the shoulder strike, when Jon was throwing it before he was even in the UFC. Same with Kamaru's foot stomp. Activity aside, that is the best P4P fighter ever. Great video btw. You mentioned a lot of stuff people usually don't, even Luke Thomas.
Jones has already said in an interview that he won't face Tom Aspinall because he doesn't want Tom to make a name for himself off of Jon's legacy. PATHETIC for a man who considers himself the greatest of all time. I hope Stipe knocks him out in the first round.
The best case scenario would be for Stipe to win and then retire, forcing Jones to fight back for the championship except then both ASPINALL and ALEX equally refuse to fight him and instead fight themselves for the Heavyweight title! That would be a perfect punishment for Jones ducking!
All i know is both have about same reach and size, one of them has real good boxing skills, we know what happens when Jones faces an opponent his size, he needs help from judges to win. Stipe can give the nice surprise if he stays calm and keeps the fight away from the floor
i like Stipe but im not sure at his age he can do it. the last older fighter i remember winning a championship was George Foreman in 95'. Never been done since...
Im excited for the fight but the weird way the ufc has went about it is disappointing. Jon is beyond the belt. He doesn’t need it anymore. This is legacy fight for both of them. The title doesn’t mean much here.
11:05 "He even gets eye poked here, he's gonna have to deal with that." Jones is going to eye poke TKO Stipe just so he has one more thing to say he did better than DC.
That’s all he ever did was eye poke old men while ducking the best of the era. If Dana actually grows a spine and gives him the ultimatum of Tom or retirement after this easy W, JJ will pull a Francis and go to the PFL to fight Alex if he has to just to duck Tom.
The only thing unwinnable is for the fans wanting the real HW champ Tom to either have Jones fed to him in a good fight or be given the belt he deserves
the best timeline is if stipe wins, goes on to say in post-fight interview "i have a belt, but i still didn't beat the champ, where are you tommy?" and then goes on to fight aspinall
I totally agree with you 100!
Agreed. 👍🏼
Dream land, but it would be excellent
@@Cultivated. i did say it was the best timeline, not that it was probable

@MartyFromDagestan I don't think so, Stipe isn't afraid of shit he fought Ngannou twice and DC 3 times, both are arguably more scary than Tom.

If Stipe is in fighting shape, he's got a good enough chance. He's mentally tough unlike Gane who was beaten before the fight began.

Corny as it may sound, watching Jones fight is truly a work of art. Don't think any other fighter has thrown that many different techniques throughout their career. Remember when people thought Conor invented the shoulder strike, when Jon was throwing it before he was even in the UFC. Same with Kamaru's foot stomp. Activity aside, that is the best P4P fighter ever. Great video btw. You mentioned a lot of stuff people usually don't, even Luke Thomas.
If anyone deserves some karma in MMA, its Jones. Guy's behavior has made it near impossible to root for him, regardless of how talented he is.
Fantastic fight? Stipe is 42 and hasn't fought in 3.5 years when he was brutally KOd. He's retired. He's a retiree.
Jones has already said in an interview that he won't face Tom Aspinall because he doesn't want Tom to make a name for himself off of Jon's legacy. PATHETIC for a man who considers himself the greatest of all time. I hope Stipe knocks him out in the first round.
The most exciting fight of 2017 🔥
Imo Jon does not want to take a lunch from any heavyweight. Wrestling heavy attack is what I 100% his game plan will be in any HW fight
The best case scenario would be for Stipe to win and then retire, forcing Jones to fight back for the championship except then both ASPINALL and ALEX equally refuse to fight him and instead fight themselves for the Heavyweight title!
That would be a perfect punishment for Jones ducking!
All i know is both have about same reach and size, one of them has real good boxing skills, we know what happens when Jones faces an opponent his size, he needs help from judges to win. Stipe can give the nice surprise if he stays calm and keeps the fight away from the floor
i like Stipe but im not sure at his age he can do it. the last older fighter i remember winning a championship was George Foreman in 95'. Never been done since...
Is anyone going to be impressed if Jon wins?
His fans
people forget just how good Stipe is and yeah he lost his last fight but he is also the only person in the ufc to have beaten Ngannou
Im excited for the fight but the weird way the ufc has went about it is disappointing. Jon is beyond the belt. He doesn’t need it anymore. This is legacy fight for both of them. The title doesn’t mean much here.
Short vs long arms dont apply to Jon. He has hellbowselbows as long as stipe's punches.. which stipe is gonna walk into of he chases him..
Dan Hardy became a 70s hippie
You should have shown Rayes fight that John lost. Minus the leg kicks, Stipe attacks similar
Stipes cage pressure v Jones cage pressure. I hope this is going be entertaining at least. They are getting pretty aged in the game after all
11:05 "He even gets eye poked here, he's gonna have to deal with that." Jones is going to eye poke TKO Stipe just so he has one more thing to say he did better than DC.
That’s all he ever did was eye poke old men while ducking the best of the era. If Dana actually grows a spine and gives him the ultimatum of Tom or retirement after this easy W, JJ will pull a Francis and go to the PFL to fight Alex if he has to just to duck Tom.
Actually he may avoid the PFL as well, even if it’s his only shot at Alex, because then he would end up having to duck Francis 😂
Please dont let this be the last breakdown😢, why?
The only thing unwinnable is for the fans wanting the real HW champ Tom to either have Jones fed to him in a good fight or be given the belt he deserves
