I noticed that too, first he shot couple of times but Alex stuffed it. So he targeted legs for the next rounds and when he realized Alex has weakened he took him down. His fight IQ is insane
@@charlesg7926 bro a picogram😂 besides they just passed a new law in the UFC a while ago that that is not a thing anymore so 🤷🏾♂️.

Too bad he wasn't clean. Amazingly talented yet soiled his legacy by not playing by the same rules as others. For the Jones fanboys, the levels measured in his system were similar to someone who had taken Turbinol a month before. Alexander deserved a better opponent.
@@snoopyshultz close enough to the ears, your opponent is not gonna sit around waiting. He wouldn’t of had to eat shots, nearly to the back of his head, if gus were maneuvering
This is one of the most perfect fights I ever seen someone fight. Considering how their first fight went makes this even more impressive as well. Hopefully we get to see Jon Jones fight a few more times before he retires but who knows.
I certainly hope so. He hasn't done nearly what he was capable of him. Could have been one of the most dominant guy in sports in general. Even still he's the GOAT in my eyes. If he comes back and wins the title at heavyweight that would be absolutely incredible as well. Unfortunately he got involved in drugs and negative things, which really almost ended his career, and definitely messed it up big time. Jons is coming back though to do what he does best though. March next year vs Francis they say.
@@elijahmitchell195 Yeah I hear you, but I think they're planning on just putting Jon against Franicis without a warm up now. Originally Jon was going to fight Stipe, but that never happened.
Incredible how he is able to manipulate arms of opponent, the wrist control, over hooks to wrench elbows/shoulders. As a martial artist myself it’s literally awesome to watch and breakdown film of this man. He pure genius in there. He started out so raw, and late in game it’s strange almost how he was able to master the game so quickly. Everything he does is calculated to wreak havoc on opponents joints and psyche. Fights in an exciting manner as well. Doesn’t force takedowns but the threat is always there. He is everywhere all the time. Meaning he is a great pressure fighter as well as great defensively as he loves to play counter striker. Moves left as a southpaw to anticipate and counter strike. Stays long but can chop up on inside with elbow attacks. Attacks wrists, shoulders, elbows, knees, neck, all vulnerable points of human anatomy. Also fights very well from both lefty and righty, like the Marvin Hagler of boxing. How does anyone say he not TBE. Khabib, GSP, Demetrius Johnson. They all don’t really come close. Cejudo is the only one that’s in sight but not as dominant and does not have the physicality of Jones. Can’t wait to see Jones Ngannou or Jones and the new Russian who just annihilated Tuivasa
Yepp the longer I watch MMA the more I realize Jon just does everything well his versatility and fight iq is the best. The only thing he lacks is perhaps heavy hands but he is smart like Cyril Gane and keeps distance well I think he can beat Gane with wrestling and perhaps Pavlovich and Francis the same way. His toughest matchup might be another wrestler like Blaydes
@@joeschmoe3665 he's been great against wrestlers. His problem isn't his grappling or defense against the same. His potential problem could be with another striker that can mix up kicks better than Dominic Reyes did. Although I think Jon wasn't 100% himself that fight he did show kinks previously unseen in his defense especially with getting punched by DR. Hopefully it was a one time thing and he's still as hungry as ever
The respect between Jones and Gustafsson is pure class. Dare I say these two probably ended up as low-key friends. Great to see good sportsmanship at this level.

@SavingPrivateBob You don't go looking for honor if YOU have it. You fight , your opponent doesn't have honor , that's when you show yours more while continuing to fight.
Gustafsson can't reach Jones when Jones is stepping backwards, Jon is also shadowing with his hands higher. Jon clearly studied way more for this fight. Jon is in great shape
tôi đã xem trận đấu trước jones vs gus và đọc những bình luận. ở trận thứ hai này đã giải đáp tất cả cho những ai từng nghi ngờ ở trận thứ nhất. hay thừa nhận jones là goat
Let's be real, if he fought Reyes again he'd probably destroy him too. I'd never want to fight Jones in a rematch. He's too smart and will make the adjustments. Your best chance is that first opportunity
Yeah, well unfortunately Jon doesn't usually train for guys he doesn't know much. He would destroy Reyes easily. Alex is much tougher than Reyes. The Alex rematch was big to him, so he trained hard.
No, Jones had no answer for Dominic Reyes. Dominic Reyes would've had more stamina on the rematch and that would've been even worse for Jones. There's a reason Jones disappeared after.
Jones' boxing is not good. His hands are slow and they lack power, it's only good if the timing is right. His strength is in his kicks and his grappling. Jones did not like going shin to shin with Reyes. And Reyes had good takedown defense that Jones could not do anything with.
Funny how everyone conveniently forgets Jon Jones pulsed for this fight and Dana White had to convince Alexander to accept the fight. Hell, they literally had to change the state of the fight LAST MINUTE to California because the Nevada State Athletic Commission was forbidding it from transpiring it in Nevada.
That fight was so cool, they were very young and thirsty to reach bigger flights in the first one, here they are more matured and we could see how much they evolved as a person, as an athlete and what changed in their skills and strategies with the learnings they had throughout their career, the concept of REMATCH on its purest form, one that was really worth the wait.
This was Jons most impressive fight to me it was a huge improvement from his first fight with gus...his legs were stronger, his foot work was better, and because of that he was able to take him down and get the finish. All of Jons other opponents at the time had been smaller with a shorter reach but Gustafson made Jon grow skill wise and be a technically better fighter in my opinion.
You can also tell he was much more prepared. In the first fight he was talking about partying a lot pre Gus #1 - I just watched it and you can tell he was worn down from partying and not so quick. Came back fully ready and dismantled Gus. Great fight. Jones is truly a killer in there
14:48 Jon Jones had been feinting a takedown all towards the end of the 2nd round and Gus was reacting to stop it each time. This time Jon Jones feinted it and Gus didn't react as strongly as he did in the 2nd so Jon Jones went in for a full takedown shortly after, masterful stuff.
No one can say argue about who the real G.O.A.T. is here 💯❤️. Jon Jones showed again ❤️ that he belongs to the Top of the greatest & best fighters in the World 💯.
People still saying Anderson Silva is the 185 GOAT despite he tested positive just like Jones. But with him it's okay i guess couse he is a fan favourite and Jon is not so people still always bring that up under every Jon Jones video. It's pretty salty that we only use steroids tests for fighters we don't like but don't do the same with fighters we like. Cheal Sonnen, Silva, Henderson exct, we only talk about PEDs when it comes to hated fighters like Jon and TJ, so it's salty and unfair to do
@@EmeralArcher The thing is Anderson Silva was not mentioned in this comment, was he? If he was mentioned as the GOAT, I would have said the same thing. Anyone who is exposed for taking steroids, their legacy is forever tainted.
Thinking after watching this the 15th time that just the way Jones is circling around to the left is limiting Gustufson’s kicking. And overall striking
16:12 looks like Jones was trying to choke him out, but Gus kept defending the choke, so Jones got pissed off and just decided to beat the shit out of him
Jon vs machita & this fight are some of my favorite! The way he made us think he was going to choke him out and then just started bombing on him was crazy!!
You actually see jon reach for the kimura in side control before he established crucifix in this fight. I think Gus’a team watched his Americana finish against belfort
Styles make fights, this was essentially a boxer vs a kickboxer that's allowed to kick. If you control the distance you in a sense control your opponents moveset. Bones is cold man,that man had tools for days, but I personally love his elbows 🗿
Exactly. He made gus look slow and old compared to their first fight just by putting his ego aside and understanding his boxing isn’t crisp enough to trade with Gus. Intercepted with kicks every time Gus took a step foward and used that to set up the elbows/takedown
Once Jones had him on the ground it looks in hindsight that his intention was always a ground-and-pound finish. The way he disengaged from the choke really gives the impression that that, and all the grappling that came just before was an elaborate misdirection. Gus wasn't given a chance to react. His back was already taken, and started the endless flurry. Clever that.
This fight was much more technical by Jon than the first.. the first fight Gustafson was backpedaling and even RUNNING away at times but having great counters.. this fight Jon was much more patient and was the one doing the countering. He’s gotten smarter and that makes him scarier. He’s the LeBron of the UFC in terms of having multiple yet different primes
@@matrixxx3662 the greatest UFC fighters in history have a strong wrestling game.. Silva, Jones, etc… there’s no “like a man” in this sport.. called MIXED martial arts for a reason because you merge boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai, AND WRESTLING..
@@matrixxx3662bro ur a casual. Jones was out striking Gustafson before he took him to the ground and TKO’d him. This dude is complaining about someone wrestling in mma
@@ProfessionalCurryDefender Definitely not. They faked the stats like they did first fight. Gustafsson was tagging him the whole time. See that fight again.
One key difference I’ve noticed watching both their fights back to back is jones was the one marching forward in their first fight which i guess forces jones to enter alex’s boxing range while in this fight jones was the one being pressed forward, maybe jones was staying away from alex’s boxing range so he could use his kicks?
@@HandsomeJackoff He didn't do any better. Jones barely trained for that fight. It has been confirmed by his coach and friends. He didn't train for Gustafsson and only partied. No gameplan. Just go and fight. Here we see the difference when Jones trains and has a gameplan.
Jones for the exact things that he showed in this fight. That's why I came back to watch it. I remember Jon sort of neutralizing Gustafsson's movement with those weird kicks to the knee and leg that Jon does. People think that Jon is just gonna wrestle Gane; I think he will try just to see if it works and if he can hold him down. He will try mixing up strikes with shoots to see how Gane's wrestling improves. If Gane is too strong or defends the takedowns well, Jon will just chop his legs and knees everytime he tries to get his movement going, then once he sort of messes up Gane's rhythm, the Takedowns will come
Big defense when Jon trains for the fight! Jon is the best his defense, the way he fines weakness in other fighters is crazy,, Jon has fought the best his entire career
@@notshared4072 he’s being Generous. GSP is the only one worthy of being called “🐐.” 2 losses were avenged, Beat everyone he fought, 9 Consecutive Defenses in a Stacked WW Division. Then coming back to win the MW Belt, on top of never getting caught for PED’s, I’d say he’s number one. GSP, Aldo, Mighty Mouse, these are guys that are 🐐’s, who never popped for the 💉.
@@iamtheshadows4916 Younger? I’ve been following MMA since The PRIDE days, 2000 to be exact. I’ve followed Young GSP, all the way to Older GSP that fought Bisping. He never once popped for The Juice and heavily advocated Against PEDs. Do you not remember the Hendricks fight? Lmao.

Let's be real, if he fought Reyes again he'd probably destroy him too. I'd never want to fight Jones in a rematch. He's too smart and will make the adjustments. Your best chance is that first opportunity
Yeah, well unfortunately Jon doesn't usually train for guys he doesn't know much. He would destroy Reyes easily. Alex is much tougher than Reyes. The Alex rematch was big to him, so he trained hard.
@@billj4525Is it that hard for people to admit Reyes was just that tough on that night?
No, Jones had no answer for Dominic Reyes.
Dominic Reyes would've had more stamina on the rematch and that would've been even worse for Jones.
There's a reason Jones disappeared after.
Jones' boxing is not good. His hands are slow and they lack power, it's only good if the timing is right.
His strength is in his kicks and his grappling.
Jones did not like going shin to shin with Reyes. And Reyes had good takedown defense that Jones could not do anything with.
love how the ref was hugging and rubbing gustafsons back after he pounded him out and stopped the fight
let's show some love for the real GOAT here: the referee
Jones sitting there like a final boss in a dojo
Funny how everyone conveniently forgets Jon Jones pulsed for this fight and Dana White had to convince Alexander to accept the fight. Hell, they literally had to change the state of the fight LAST MINUTE to California because the Nevada State Athletic Commission was forbidding it from transpiring it in Nevada.
That fight was so cool, they were very young and thirsty to reach bigger flights in the first one, here they are more matured and we could see how much they evolved as a person, as an athlete and what changed in their skills and strategies with the learnings they had throughout their career, the concept of REMATCH on its purest form, one that was really worth the wait.
14:55 that woman screaming knew what was gonna happen when jon took him down lol
This was Jons most impressive fight to me it was a huge improvement from his first fight with gus...his legs were stronger, his foot work was better, and because of that he was able to take him down and get the finish. All of Jons other opponents at the time had been smaller with a shorter reach but Gustafson made Jon grow skill wise and be a technically better fighter in my opinion.
You can also tell he was much more prepared. In the first fight he was talking about partying a lot pre Gus #1 - I just watched it and you can tell he was worn down from partying and not so quick. Came back fully ready and dismantled Gus. Great fight. Jones is truly a killer in there
14:48 Jon Jones had been feinting a takedown all towards the end of the 2nd round and Gus was reacting to stop it each time. This time Jon Jones feinted it and Gus didn't react as strongly as he did in the 2nd so Jon Jones went in for a full takedown shortly after, masterful stuff.
Bro the fighting iq he has is insane
When jon jones goes for the kill like when he got that take down at the end that's a baddddd place to be on earth. Jon can kill anyone on earth easily
This is the first time I have ever seen anyone use a half Nelson to setup a finish to a fight, pro or amateur.
The most effectively-creative fighter
Ssme
It’s that wrestling dna in him
17:16 That takedown looked like it’s from a video game or movie. *Beautiful* .
That eye poke by Alexander made me laugh 😂
in early rounds with jones circling he’s totally adapted alex’s strategy from the first fight.
This is why he is the Goat of MMA. Perfecto.... Beautiful art of fighting skill
Who imported my Dragon Age character to be the ref?
No one can say argue about who the real G.O.A.T. is here 💯❤️. Jon Jones showed again ❤️ that he belongs to the Top of the greatest & best fighters in the World 💯.
Can't be a GOAT if you took steroids. Sorry but Jon's legacy is forever tarnished.
People still saying Anderson Silva is the 185 GOAT despite he tested positive just like Jones.
But with him it's okay i guess couse he is a fan favourite and Jon is not so people still always bring that up under every Jon Jones video.
It's pretty salty that we only use steroids tests for fighters we don't like but don't do the same with fighters we like.
Cheal Sonnen, Silva, Henderson exct, we only talk about PEDs when it comes to hated fighters like Jon and TJ, so it's salty and unfair to do
@@EmeralArcher The thing is Anderson Silva was not mentioned in this comment, was he? If he was mentioned as the GOAT, I would have said the same thing. Anyone who is exposed for taking steroids, their legacy is forever tainted.
@@filay248 Here yes
But in every single other mma video or any platform he is.
@@filay248 You’re just a hater
Love re- watching this fight. Bones is so good he just toward his opponent apart. Congrats champ
Thinking after watching this the 15th time that just the way Jones is circling around to the left is limiting Gustufson’s kicking. And overall striking
Those side kicks to the legs are had to watch in any jones fight, the guy must have the best kicks in ufc so efficient
16:12 looks like Jones was trying to choke him out, but Gus kept defending the choke, so Jones got pissed off and just decided to beat the shit out of him
This was jon jones heavyist fight ever gustavson was impressive
I'm watching your video thanks for sharing
To this day idk what it was about Jon's GNP finish here, but it seemed so heavy and vicious
It was crazy cuz in the first one Jones had him back pedaling but this one Jones just played it smart and out classed that man.
I love that sambo elbow knot from Jones in the beginning
Jones is masterfully dismantles Gus take down defense by destroying that leg , what a masterclass
You know what is as impressive as the fight? the braids on the ref
It's crazy how jones just demolished him this time around.
Jon vs machita & this fight are some of my favorite! The way he made us think he was going to choke him out and then just started bombing on him was crazy!!
Flashback to the way he finished TRTitor. Side control to crucifix. But followed by ground n pound instead of kimura this time around.
You actually see jon reach for the kimura in side control before he established crucifix in this fight. I think Gus’a team watched his Americana finish against belfort
Jon jones would make a great street fighter character 😂
Styles make fights, this was essentially a boxer vs a kickboxer that's allowed to kick.
If you control the distance you in a sense control your opponents moveset.
Bones is cold man,that man had tools for days, but I personally love his elbows 🗿
Exactly. He made gus look slow and old compared to their first fight just by putting his ego aside and understanding his boxing isn’t crisp enough to trade with Gus. Intercepted with kicks every time Gus took a step foward and used that to set up the elbows/takedown
Once Jones had him on the ground it looks in hindsight that his intention was always a ground-and-pound finish.
The way he disengaged from the choke really gives the impression that that, and all the grappling that came just before was an elaborate misdirection.
Gus wasn't given a chance to react. His back was already taken, and started the endless flurry. Clever that.
Well said, my dude. Beautiful wording
@@SavingPrivateBob Yeah man. I'm not of fan of Jon Jones the person, but there is so much to learn from his fight IQ. Coming from a shotokanist.
Oss!
Bones could have easily gone for a submission win there, it's almost as if he disengages to visciously smash Gus just to prove a point !!!
Gus ground defense is actually very disappointing, especially his half guard.
This fight was much more technical by Jon than the first.. the first fight Gustafson was backpedaling and even RUNNING away at times but having great counters.. this fight Jon was much more patient and was the one doing the countering. He’s gotten smarter and that makes him scarier. He’s the LeBron of the UFC in terms of having multiple yet different primes
Jones succeeded a takedown and kept him on the ground. He didn’t want to continue the fight on the feet like a man.
@@matrixxx3662 the greatest UFC fighters in history have a strong wrestling game.. Silva, Jones, etc… there’s no “like a man” in this sport.. called MIXED martial arts for a reason because you merge boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai, AND WRESTLING..
@@matrixxx3662dude your stupid.of course he wanted to finish him. And he did.
@@matrixxx3662bro ur a casual. Jones was out striking Gustafson before he took him to the ground and TKO’d him. This dude is complaining about someone wrestling in mma
@@ProfessionalCurryDefender Definitely not. They faked the stats like they did first fight. Gustafsson was tagging him the whole time. See that fight again.
Jon etched the first one out and completely dominated from start to finish proving he is by far the superior, more intelligent and diverse fighter.
This isn't that young Jon staying up days before a fight partying no no... this is big boy jon
A focused Jon is the scariest man alive 😬
JON BONES JONES É FENOMENAL 🔥💪🏻
Jon Jones he is not only the best fighter he also recovery jumping too. He is my hero God bless Jon Jones.
The spine is the most important thing to perfect in fighting. It helps with everything.
3:26 this looked like the kick that Alex said got him early. He switched stances and shook it off.
Not only is he just a brilliant martial artist. Hes absolutely strong af 😂 hard to do anything when hes grappling im sure
What makes Jon Jones the goat 🐐 is that he uses different techniques
One key difference I’ve noticed watching both their fights back to back is jones was the one marching forward in their first fight which i guess forces jones to enter alex’s boxing range while in this fight jones was the one being pressed forward, maybe jones was staying away from alex’s boxing range so he could use his kicks?
Why the ref holding Gustafson like that 16:35 🤣
I’ve been watching UFC since a kid. 1993, and I’ve never seen that lol.
Probably because their both Nordic or whatever
@Lizard People I was thinking the same thing.
Those last few punches were scary 🤕
Takes a man to accept a beating like that, those of us who grew up in violent circumstances know that
A kiss at the end by Jon is crazy bruh
For me Jones is one of the Greatest, bcoz he knows to adjust in his fight evry round and strategic and smart Fighter..
Gustafsson was a beast in this fight
Not is this one lol
He did way better in their first fight
@@JRF1004 yeah my bad i meant in the first one 🤣
Any man that can hold their own against JONES is definitely a beast
@@HandsomeJackoff
He didn't do any better. Jones barely trained for that fight. It has been confirmed by his coach and friends. He didn't train for Gustafsson and only partied. No gameplan. Just go and fight. Here we see the difference when Jones trains and has a gameplan.
Jon Jones is set to fight Ciryl Gane in March. Who y'all got?
Gane
Jones
Jones for the exact things that he showed in this fight. That's why I came back to watch it. I remember Jon sort of neutralizing Gustafsson's movement with those weird kicks to the knee and leg that Jon does. People think that Jon is just gonna wrestle Gane; I think he will try just to see if it works and if he can hold him down. He will try mixing up strikes with shoots to see how Gane's wrestling improves. If Gane is too strong or defends the takedowns well, Jon will just chop his legs and knees everytime he tries to get his movement going, then once he sort of messes up Gane's rhythm, the Takedowns will come
Jones
Jon Jones wins
Ref came directly from Forjaz. So nice to have a fellow dwarf to look after ufc fights
Big defense when Jon trains for the fight!
Jon is the best his defense, the way he fines weakness in other fighters is crazy,,
Jon has fought the best his entire career
The one and only GOAT!
Georges St. Pierre is the 🐐
@@Ricatonniisasavage8854 Even GSP would disagree. FWIW, he named Khabib his GOAT in an interview this summer.
@@notshared4072 he’s being Generous.
GSP is the only one worthy of being called “🐐.” 2 losses were avenged, Beat everyone he fought, 9 Consecutive Defenses in a Stacked WW Division. Then coming back to win the MW Belt, on top of never getting caught for PED’s, I’d say he’s number one.
GSP, Aldo, Mighty Mouse, these are guys that are 🐐’s, who never popped for the 💉.
@@Ricatonniisasavage8854 GSP deff used predstavlja before usada lmao I guess u are the younger one
@@iamtheshadows4916 Younger? I’ve been following MMA since The PRIDE days, 2000 to be exact. I’ve followed Young GSP, all the way to Older GSP that fought Bisping. He never once popped for The Juice and heavily advocated Against PEDs. Do you not remember the Hendricks fight? Lmao.
You can tell Jon was way more condition than the first fight
The way the umpire strokes him at the end 😂
I love Dom he’s so technical in his commentary.
A very underrated commentator. He has a knack for thinking outside the box and most people prefer the standard, entertaining approach.
