I think people doesn’t realize what a monster Thiago is. Having all the ligaments of your knee ripped off and still pulling out a poker face and going 5 rounds fighting equally with the champion. I can’t even imagine the level of pain he was on.
The One that’s not five rounds straight, it’s more helping against momentary pain (imagine after a hard kick to your leg where you can keep going). Especially between rounds and “relaxing” must suck and feel pain
Jones had much to do with him tearing those ligaments. Crazy octagon pressure. Cut off the octagon not allowing Thiago to set his feet much. Leg kicks. Making thiago throw off balanced kicks
But all urself, did he ever do that against anyone else?? NO!!!! Jon defended n hurt Santos knee! Everyone acts like he hurt himself! Fukn bs. Jon is a beast!
@@klayspearman7872 That's the thing, there may not have been another day. He fought like he was never gonna get another shot at that belt because in all actuality he may not have.
@Notorious1503 He DID go into that fight hurt. With one poorly thrown kick, Santos re-injured the same leg he already hurt before. Jones had nothing to do with that, he didn't even attack Santos' bad leg not even after he was visibly injured.
Mighty Mouse never got the credit he deserved because he wasn’t a super showboat. Dude was the undisputed Flyweight champ who went under mainstream media
mighty mouse never kissed dana's ass and they who dont kids dana's ass have it the hard way many many fights that juat go under the radar unlike ronda or brock with 1 or 2 wins they are soo much promoted they are made as to be jesus them self even tho dana dont belive in that they still get the hype
You guys should go see his history, from being born on the City of God, to military career, to helping kids staying out of crime and drugs to him fighting(some would say beating) the biggest monster of our generation with minus one leg. Thiago Santos is a hero in my eyes.
Fighters always say they got injured in the fight as a way to make an excuse. But tearing multiple ligaments isn’t an excuse. It’s a legitimate injury that prevented him from doing better and possibly winning the fight.
Santos can easily lobby for a rematch but that's the thing. He looked way too satisfied with going 5 rounds with Jones. A lot of people believe Santos won. If only he was a better talker.
And who is everyone. Everyone is no one. Santos put up a great fight and Jones was smart not to get into a fist fight. Slight edge will always go to the champion and Santos would have had to take him down a few times to tip the scales
I give the fight to jones cause it was a slow fight Jones was the aggressor the whole time. If anything the fight was a draw, but a draw goes to the champion
The difference is due to accountability and severity. Jon's was linked to a tainted supplement(you don't have to believe it) that most say just makes you more aggressive, bit there was so little of it that it likely had little to.no effect. TJ's was 100% on purpose being taken on purpose, known huge performance boosting drug.
Just said the same thing. I think for him and his camp, if he's never the same, they'll be satisfied with the fact that he literally left the best of himself in the biggest opportunity that he had.
Liam Morgans yea but that’s cause he’s not gonna do anything extra after the fight. He walked on them the whole fight. When you go from go go go to stopping you’re gonna start feeling everything more
Yes but my point was that Thiago was definitely teeing off on Jon’s legs and it was effecting Jon’s ability to fight. Maybe not because of pain during the fight, but fear of more leg kicks and combos that might follow. They were definitely effective leg kicks
This Jones is going for 20 title defenses. He will fight very defensively with moderate output. Like second run GSP. PEDs or not, Jones is not going to force any finish. (Unless he is down on the cards)
You bastards need to stop shaming people who actually pay for the PPV because those people are the ONLY REASON you have any fights to watch. Cheap cunts it only costs 10 bucks if you get a group of friends to chip in
Santos is a Brazilian beast. Hes basically same as our Rangers in his army. That fight woulda been so much better if there was no injuries. I hope they get a rematch asap. Watching a healthy Santos vs a Healthy Jones would be bad ass. The winners would be US. The viewers
We gotta see a rematch when Thiago gets healthy again although that could be a long time from now. That's the closest I've ever seen Jones to losing. That was a great fight!. Thiago has a great poker face!
For real. I just watched the fight. Dude should get a Grammy. That was a bad knee hence the rule change but still now he has to wait 9 months. He knows he can't win. So you hold onto the belt as long as you can so you can brag. He's a chump. No respect for him.
Jon Jones is the greatest user of range ever. He also has 9/10 skill in every department. Age, and or losing focus, are the only things that will beat him
I had a problem with one of my legs where the muscles holding the ligaments and the knee cap were very weak that some of my ligaments tore, and the looseness of the muscles made it like they were all torn but they're not. The pain was unimaginable, and i dont know how santos managed to fight jones like that, arguably beating him too.
Weird to see people hyping up the Dominic Reyes rematch (which is legit) when Thiago is more deserving of the rematch . Thiago was very very impressive versus Jones. Jones was lucky to take the split decision
Ordinary Nocturne he still would’ve won because he recognized that santoses knee was screwed up and attacked his knee instead of taking him to the ground jones would’ve adapted to the challenge he was facing and he would’ve played it way safer.
He beat DC after a weekend of coke....trust me...not a good feeling coming off a couple day coke binge lol...Jons a beast all bs aside,nobody beating that dude. But I do think Thiago deserves a rematch,it was a closer fight than people want to admit
Jones didn't have the same aggression as usual and definitely looked less shreded. He looked pretty much like a guy that's coming off PED's if you ask me.
I don't know if I'd say PEDs, but something definitely looked off. Maybe it's the fatigue of fighting three times so close together (first time he's done that in how long?) But yeah, I thought he was mostly phoning it in. He also acted completely unaware of Santos' knee injury...which is ridiculous. Santos was stumbling and wobbling several times throughout the fight with Jones standing right in front of him. So for Jones to not notice or for his corner to not instruct him to attack that leg just seems insane. This was the type of fight that makes me question the betting line and allowing it to go the distance. Had Jones attacked the injury like he should have, this fight would have been over by the 3rd round.
Walfredo he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Jones got his nickname “bones” due to his scrawny figure, and has only been caught for peds 2 technically but really once.
A_daly 98 care to inform me what other time he was caught for peds other than the dc and Gustafson fight(which was declared a trace amount from his first suspension in 2017)? Or are you just chatting shit cause you got nothing better to do with your life
I dont think Jon could take him down jon jones legs were also hurt due to leg kicks plus i think he was concerned about getting kneed in the head if he shot for one. Would have been interesting to see Thiago off his back though he is BJJ black belt as well.
We say that Marreta gave Jon his hardest fight, but we don't know if Marreta will ever be the same. The amount of damage done to his leg in that one fight can put him on the shelf and prevent him from being the dynamic knockout guy that he has built a reputation on being. Every knee ligament torn AND a fractured shin is a lot to recover from. Good luck to Santos
I loved Thiago‘s toughness in the fight but I also hate it. Such an injury is pretty dangerous for your future fighting career.. So wouldn‘t have it been better to throw the towel in?
I hate how people say that Jon chose to fight standing to make it more competitive. That's not how fighting works. Fighters *always* use their advantages. (Except Rockhold that is) Jon saw that Thiago stuffed that take-down and knew that wouldn't work in his favor so he fought the way he did.
@@GovernorRiffRaff you saw a different match bro, first thing Rockhold did ,was, try to take Jan down. He tried in the next round too but failed miserably.
Theago Santos is a fucking beast ,... still fighting hard after that knee shattered and a fracture in his shin,... i cant fucking believe it ,.. i cant even imagine how he felt but still kicking hard this guys are on an other level ,...much respect !
Jon was wheeled out in a wheelchair. Thiago had 4 ligament tears and he limped out with his team. Shows the difference in heart between the two. If they rematch, Thiago will be champ.
I think Jones won because he was aggressive the whole fight, but Santos is super tough and I really hope he recovers and fight his way back to a rematch.
@@nathanluz1218 to us hardcore fans we know Santos won the fight but he's not the money draw Jon Jones's the money draw so they're not going to let the title change hands on a close fight. I also believe that if Santos didn't injure himself we'd have a new champ at light heavyweight.
naw I think reyes won but it was very close. judges have a very big tendency too favor the fighter who wins the last two rounds and for whatever reason give them the fight. it's annoying but it is a trend with judging.
If jon wanted to dominate he would have just slammed his ass to the ground he wanted to proove he could hang with a noted kickboxer top class striker how can u not see that man these dudes cant beat Jonny
Sam Caraballo You rlly think Jon's egotistical ass wouldn't try to win the fight as efficiently and fast as possible? Get real. Jon avoided takedowns because I suspect he wanted to use his reach advantage and avoid the risk of being caught by Thiago's bombs. Much safer to do what he did.
You got to realize Jon didn't take advantage of Santos injuries. He could ended his career if he wanted to, besides that he went just for striking against a well rounded striker. Jon just proved he is the Goat.
All the junkies I’ve ever seen get into a fight off coke have taken big L’s. Hospital type L’s. Iono what theories y’all coming up with in your hypotheticals but in real life your not a better or stronger fighter on coke. They’re fast as a muthafucka on foot but don’t start believing if I just take coke I’m Jon Jones. 🤦🏿♂️ Burt Cooper was my next door neighbor forever (RIP), it was common knowledge Burt was heavy on coke in all of his fights. By your analysis he should be undefeated. Burt was no scrub by any stretch of the imagination, coke should have put him over the top according to you 🤦🏿♂️. Stop the dumb shit.
Still didn’t pop when he beat majority of his comp. it was only over the course of like 1 fight. Was clean when he was running through legends and even no post USADA still dominate
THANK YOU!! I’ve been saying this about jones for a long time jones beat a lot of old fighters while MM beat people in their peak and was just that much better.
Good News: In his most recent instagram story he said that his doctor told him after an x-ray that there shouldn't be any more problems with his shoulder and he himself said that he'll maybe fight again as soon as september or october.
To all the Jones fans.Remember USADA has a list what every fighter can and cant take of supplements and so forth. He knew exactly what he was taking and was trying to pull one over on everyone. His brother did the exact same thing.

I’m surprised he could even move at all, and he kept throwing kicks on it. But I feel like other than maybe 1 kick in the first round he didn’t really do damage. Joe: You see how they had to carry Jon Jones out of the cage? AS: Yeah I saw they put him in a wheelchair, that was nuts. Lol
People forgetting that most of the people jones beat were x world champions.. almost all of them! DJ doesnt have that under his belt .. hes still one of the goats but jon is THE goat
@@billy2533 he might have been, but we know for sure that Jones fought ex champs who were definitely juiced on PEDs, his haters sure keep quiet about that
I believe Jon Jones was showing mercy. He knew the left leg of Thiago was very vulnerable, and many times he could have attacked it, but I think Jon knew he would have ended that man's career.
Henry actually had the balls to move up in weight rather than padding his record in a dead division. Mighty Mouse ducked the bantamweight division like the plague. Henry > MM.
here’s what happened , yeah jon was pushing forward but he didn’t throw shit? He was very inactive as a champion. Santos was the only one throwing real dangerous combinations and strikes the entire time. Only reason jon was looked at as the victor was santos slips because of his knee it made jon look good. I KNEW going in this fight he’d give jon his toughest fight of his career. I’m not saying santos won that fight but quit acting like jon made it a harder fight by not taking him down, I don’t think he had a choice. He went for one takedown in the fight and realized how much energy that would drain so he didn’t do it the entire fight once it was stuffed. Jon was nullified with flurries everytime he tried to capitalize on santos leg. Honestly, santos would have won that fight if he wasn’t fighting jon jones you feel? If it was any other opponent judges would easily say santos.
Adpted nah not really santos didn’t land anything to hurt him. Jones has been a takedown artist his whole career and you think he wouldn’t of been able to take down a 1 knee fighter if he pressed it? He even said after the fight he didn’t take him down bc he didn’t feel the need to. He knew he was injured and decided to beat him in Santos strength
I feel like Santos has great cardio for being so big. I feel like he would have turned it up 10x on the aggression in the last rounds if his knee wasn't messed up. At that point, Jones would have had to take him down. I am disappointed that Dana White said he doesn't think Santos deserves a rematch. I think he does, and he is wild enough to maybe win.
Ed Durr III try coke and tell me if u can do anything while ur eyes are huge and everything is fast paced. coke and hookers should have ruined his career but it didnt which is why he is the greatest of all time
The whole point is that he was out partying the night before, instead of training or worrying about the fight with DC. He wasn't high during the fight.
Yeah but we know for certain that DJ has been clean his whole career so I'd give him the benefit of the doubt. The Santos fight was Jon's first without testing positive in years and didn't look like his normal self.
That shouldn't have been a split decision. It was a close fight but Jones won for sure. Santos hurt Jones leg with kicks but Jones basically crippled Santos leg.
@B Dup I completely agree, I thought Jones's pulled it off against Gus but if it was 3 rounds Gus would have won. This fight wasn't that close, even Jones's first fight with DC was closer imo.
Just_ortiz Ortiz I think the drop was questionable. I mean if you’re counting a knockdown as the fighter falling down then yeah, but it looked more like Santos dipped the shot and fell.
I think people doesn’t realize what a monster Thiago is. Having all the ligaments of your knee ripped off and still pulling out a poker face and going 5 rounds fighting equally with the champion. I can’t even imagine the level of pain he was on.
Thiago will win the rematch
Andre Silva he wouldn’t have felt anything, just the weird feeling as his leg is flailing around. Adrenaline is very powerful.
@@uglyjack8577 let's see statistic with Jon reemaches)

Walfredo he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Jones got his nickname “bones” due to his scrawny figure, and has only been caught for peds 2 technically but really once.
@@TO-kk7xf "only" lmao, typical Jones fan
A_daly 98 care to inform me what other time he was caught for peds other than the dc and Gustafson fight(which was declared a trace amount from his first suspension in 2017)? Or are you just chatting shit cause you got nothing better to do with your life
"I beat you after a weekend of cocain".Jones is such a savage.Btw he is taking Santos down in a rematch...
Yup
He's certainly something
I dont think Jon could take him down jon jones legs were also hurt due to leg kicks plus i think he was concerned about getting kneed in the head if he shot for one. Would have been interesting to see Thiago off his back though he is BJJ black belt as well.
Santos is a black belt
Try fighting someone who's on coke and tell me how's that a disadvantage
We say that Marreta gave Jon his hardest fight, but we don't know if Marreta will ever be the same. The amount of damage done to his leg in that one fight can put him on the shelf and prevent him from being the dynamic knockout guy that he has built a reputation on being.
Every knee ligament torn AND a fractured shin is a lot to recover from. Good luck to Santos
Well u called it
What a warrior Thiago seriously tore his knee completely apart
Bomb Squad? That's the hardest MMA team name..
That's the boxing HW champ crew name
@@montbrink4700 still hard
Its hard but i think The Blackzillians sounds a little bit doper.
Til this day
@@elmboy20 ....I have to disagree on that one lol...
I loved Thiago‘s toughness in the fight but I also hate it. Such an injury is pretty dangerous for your future fighting career..
So wouldn‘t have it been better to throw the towel in?
Josua Groß exactly what I was thinking during the match
I hate how people say that Jon chose to fight standing to make it more competitive.
That's not how fighting works.
Fighters *always* use their advantages.
(Except Rockhold that is)
Jon saw that Thiago stuffed that take-down and knew that wouldn't work in his favor so he fought the way he did.
Exactly what I thought, Jon Jones didn't even try to take him down after he got lit up in the first attempt.
Isn’t rockhold a black belt? why didn’t he try and take Jan down?
Thank you
@@GovernorRiffRaff Cause Jan has pretty good takedown defense and like he showed, he packs a punch too
@@GovernorRiffRaff you saw a different match bro, first thing Rockhold did ,was, try to take Jan down. He tried in the next round too but failed miserably.
He’s the greatest mixed martial artist on steroids fighting today. Hands down.
Theago Santos is a fucking beast ,... still fighting hard after that knee shattered and a fracture in his shin,... i cant fucking believe it ,.. i cant even imagine how he felt but still kicking hard this guys are on an other level ,...much respect !
Jon was wheeled out in a wheelchair. Thiago had 4 ligament tears and he limped out with his team. Shows the difference in heart between the two. If they rematch, Thiago will be champ.
This didn’t age well
I think Jones won because he was aggressive the whole fight, but Santos is super tough and I really hope he recovers and fight his way back to a rematch.
santos threw the double and connected the double. he won the fight
Nathan Luz he lost it get over it
@@nathanluz1218 to us hardcore fans we know Santos won the fight but he's not the money draw Jon Jones's the money draw so they're not going to let the title change hands on a close fight. I also believe that if Santos didn't injure himself we'd have a new champ at light heavyweight.
how about the drugs ?
Eh in my eyes he was pushing forward with nothing to do
Jon wanted to keep the fight standing, basically fought the fight with one hand behinds his back.. why aren’t people recognising that
Exactly. How dense are these people. It's well known Bones loves to fight people with their strengths and beat them at their own game.
Deuce - Jon can takedown anyone people are acting like santos chose to keep the fight standing.
You mean like his opponent fighting with torn ligaments in both knees? Jfc
Fighting with a guy with one leg wow so impressive
Yes agree and everyone saying he fought Santos with a bad knee, well wtf jon checked 1 of his kicks that's how he fucked his knee up.
I agree. Santos MUST get another shot at Jones.
Jones Vs Santos was almost draw
Jones Vs Reyes was a clear win for Reyes I think it's 49:46 for Dom
naw I think reyes won but it was very close. judges have a very big tendency too favor the fighter who wins the last two rounds and for whatever reason give them the fight. it's annoying but it is a trend with judging.
Jon "Broke a toe and still win a fight" Jones.
I would hope Jon controlled the fight when his opponent was on one leg. Not to take away from Jon's greatness, but man Thiago has the heart of lion.
If jon wanted to dominate he would have just slammed his ass to the ground he wanted to proove he could hang with a noted kickboxer top class striker how can u not see that man these dudes cant beat Jonny
Sam Caraballo You rlly think Jon's egotistical ass wouldn't try to win the fight as efficiently and fast as possible? Get real. Jon avoided takedowns because I suspect he wanted to use his reach advantage and avoid the risk of being caught by Thiago's bombs. Much safer to do what he did.
Joe: did Jon Jones eat any grass fed beef? Maybe some elk ?
rogan will fill your freezer full of elk when he returns from his hunting trip in Montana
and dope
Can’t wait for the inevitable rematch these two have.
That hokey pokey shit was hilarious 🤣
Imagine Santos KO both Jones and the judge.
To me this Santos fight was amazingly impressive with all those injuries and in my eyes beat jon jones unbelievable
Go to sleep mate your talking bs
You got to realize Jon didn't take advantage of Santos injuries. He could ended his career if he wanted to, besides that he went just for striking against a well rounded striker. Jon just proved he is the Goat.
He ran out the clock like Tyron Woodley used to do. Give me a break
Sterling has entertaining personality and great voice. Needs his own show Asap
i'm gonna be honest...i dont like him because he's black
If Santos knee wasn’t fucked and he was able to apply pressure giving him octagon control he probably could’ve won
People acting like cocaine don't enhance you or something have ya ever met coke heads they are very strong while on coke and feel no pain
Carlos Toribio u done coke bruh
@@alecnbell don't get me confused with your grandparents
I can from personal experience tell you I'm way stronger on cocaine than clean.
For further info see: Stimulant psychosis on wikipedia.
All the junkies I’ve ever seen get into a fight off coke have taken big L’s. Hospital type L’s. Iono what theories y’all coming up with in your hypotheticals but in real life your not a better or stronger fighter on coke. They’re fast as a muthafucka on foot but don’t start believing if I just take coke I’m Jon Jones. 🤦🏿♂️ Burt Cooper was my next door neighbor forever (RIP), it was common knowledge Burt was heavy on coke in all of his fights. By your analysis he should be undefeated. Burt was no scrub by any stretch of the imagination, coke should have put him over the top according to you 🤦🏿♂️. Stop the dumb shit.
@@anthonygilbert8373 another nigga who don't what they talking about lol
Everyone tries to downplay Jones because he's a very dislikeable person but he's beaten some of the greatest ufc fighter's of all time
He's garbage not that he's not on pico anymore
It is indisputable. And I don't like him. You cannot deny his dominance, who ever shows up against him loses.
Eazyboy W the failed PED tests don’t help either
he's beaten some of the greatest ufc fighter's of all time on p.e.d's lmao
Come on!
The only thing people downplay is his failed performance enhancers test he has failed.
Biggest thing that automatically discredits JJ from the goat conversation.. he tested positive, MM is goat
Calm down bruh, that's that roid rage talkin' lol
Samuel Deimous 💥💥💥
Midgets can never be the GOAT.
Still didn’t pop when he beat majority of his comp. it was only over the course of like 1 fight. Was clean when he was running through legends and even no post USADA still dominate
DJ hasn’t fought the same level of guys Jon has or even close to it.
Jons collected eyeballs from every opponent 😂
THANK YOU!! I’ve been saying this about jones for a long time jones beat a lot of old fighters while MM beat people in their peak and was just that much better.
Joe, I saw that J. Walker shoulder rehab clip... Bro!!! That shoulder is in bad shape
His career could be over. It's almost 7 months and his arm can't do better than an old lady with arthritis
He needs to go to someone who specializes in frozen shoulders.
Good News: In his most recent instagram story he said that his doctor told him after an x-ray that there shouldn't be any more problems with his shoulder and he himself said that he'll maybe fight again as soon as september or october.
@@gti5700 r u dumb u hater? He's asking DANA for a fight he's better now
ANGRYGREEKMANYO super reasonable response guy
To all the Jones fans.Remember USADA has a list what every fighter can and cant take of supplements and so forth. He knew exactly what he was taking and was trying to pull one over on everyone. His brother did the exact same thing.
Matt skeletor i agree bro , he cheated and it’s fucked up , however he is a great Fighter and can clearly hang with the best still
Did USADA come and tell you this quietly in your ear?
@@sambridhathapa4313 Its the rules. Obviously you dont know anything about mma..get out troll
@@matthewmontgomery31 Can you elaborate, instead of calling me names over the internet? This is a pretty dumb tactic where you cannot explain stuff and you resort to calling names.
@@sambridhathapa4313 Do you know how many videos there is out there on USADA? You can even look it up yourself if you are inclined to.
Fighters are insane with that amount of damage. Not really worth it
Dravidian 071CabooseBoyz definitely need better pay
@@monkeyballs2342 Well some fighters would end up becoming criminals if it wasn't for MMA or other martial arts. Better pay maybe yeah, but health can't be bought
These injuries aren’t exclusive to fighters they just continue competing with the injury
@@dravidiangmb7242 false
Depends on the pay. If I could make Conner money it would be 100% worth it.
joe rogan predicted the future lol 0:54
Fake master right there
Showing him da blueprint
AS: Man I just think you know Jon Jones really controlled the octagon better and he was always pushing forward so you know
Joe: You see how Santos tore his whole knee open in round 1
AS: Yeah that was crazy dude has a ton of heart. I’m surprised he could even move at all, and he kept throwing kicks on it. But I feel like other than maybe 1 kick in the first round he didn’t really do damage.
Joe: You see how they had to carry Jon Jones out of the cage?
AS: Yeah I saw they put him in a wheelchair, that was nuts.
Lol
Can we just stop with the goat, and best ever stuff. We can appreciate talent without downgrading every other talented fighter.
i like where your mind is at and i completely agree, the goat discussion is always an interesting one but its definitely an overused term atm
Am I the only one who misses demetrious Johnson, he was a much better champion then cringe cejudo IMO.
People forgetting that most of the people jones beat were x world champions.. almost all of them! DJ doesnt have that under his belt .. hes still one of the goats but jon is THE goat
But Jones might have been using PED's his entire career. No one will ever know for sure.
@@billy2533 he might have been, but we know for sure that Jones fought ex champs who were definitely juiced on PEDs, his haters sure keep quiet about that
Mighty mouse couldn't beat x world champions because he was the only world champion in the division ever.
Seth King everyone loves to forget that jon beat all those x champs during the TRT era as well
Low key i enjoyed the Nunez v Holms fight more. 🦁
Aljamain has a great sense of humor. New fan of his after this show.
I believe Jon Jones was showing mercy. He knew the left leg of Thiago was very vulnerable, and many times he could have attacked it, but I think Jon knew he would have ended that man's career.
I agree 100%
Henry actually had the balls to move up in weight rather than padding his record in a dead division. Mighty Mouse ducked the bantamweight division like the plague. Henry > MM.
here’s what happened , yeah jon was pushing forward but he didn’t throw shit? He was very inactive as a champion. Santos was the only one throwing real dangerous combinations and strikes the entire time. Only reason jon was looked at as the victor was santos slips because of his knee it made jon look good. I KNEW going in this fight he’d give jon his toughest fight of his career. I’m not saying santos won that fight but quit acting like jon made it a harder fight by not taking him down, I don’t think he had a choice. He went for one takedown in the fight and realized how much energy that would drain so he didn’t do it the entire fight once it was stuffed. Jon was nullified with flurries everytime he tried to capitalize on santos leg. Honestly, santos would have won that fight if he wasn’t fighting jon jones you feel? If it was any other opponent judges would easily say santos.
Love armchair mma warriors trynna act like they know more than an actual mma fighter & commentator lol
Adpted nah not really santos didn’t land anything to hurt him. Jones has been a takedown artist his whole career and you think he wouldn’t of been able to take down a 1 knee fighter if he pressed it? He even said after the fight he didn’t take him down bc he didn’t feel the need to. He knew he was injured and decided to beat him in Santos strength
Leo I’m saying my opinion of what I watched you fucking tool.
7Ahilles santos footwork was working wym? Until his leg buckled he was doing just fine letting jon come to him instead of chasing jon.
but did he land more than jon? no. so it doesn't matter if he threw more.
Sterling speaks well. Would like to see him commentating in the future
@Poo Head what does 'stutters spastic' mean?
what i love was jon is such a good showmanship he aint abuse thiago after his injury
GSP is the GOAT
Khabib is the 🐐
Jones is the 🐐
When the last time that nigga fought imao hell no
If you think Thiago won, you was rooting for him. Watching fight with open mind. Jon def won. He was the aggressor and backed santos down all night.
Andrew Charlery I agree. Jon initiated more shots and landed more. It wasn’t a very dominant performance but he definitely won.
So what if i wasnt rooting for Santos and i still had him winning
I feel like Santos has great cardio for being so big. I feel like he would have turned it up 10x on the aggression in the last rounds if his knee wasn't messed up. At that point, Jones would have had to take him down. I am disappointed that Dana White said he doesn't think Santos deserves a rematch. I think he does, and he is wild enough to maybe win.
I agree.
Joe "his knee was mangled" Rogan
Who's here after Aljo got kneed and running from Petr Yan
And jon makes dc cry every now and then😂😂
dearjohnny 😂 man shut up an except that Dc just isn’t as good as jon
I don’t get the hilarious part of Jones beating DC while on coke or why ppl look past it as if it’s not a something that can help you in a fight...
Ed Durr III try coke and tell me if u can do anything while ur eyes are huge and everything is fast paced. coke and hookers should have ruined his career but it didnt which is why he is the greatest of all time
The whole point is that he was out partying the night before, instead of training or worrying about the fight with DC. He wasn't high during the fight.
Yeah but we know for certain that DJ has been clean his whole career so I'd give him the benefit of the doubt. The Santos fight was Jon's first without testing positive in years and didn't look like his normal self.
That shouldn't have been a split decision. It was a close fight but Jones won for sure. Santos hurt Jones leg with kicks but Jones basically crippled Santos leg.
@B Dup I completely agree, I thought Jones's pulled it off against Gus but if it was 3 rounds Gus would have won. This fight wasn't that close, even Jones's first fight with DC was closer imo.
Santos 1,2 and 5
Jones didn’t do anything
Gda Rippa ikr. Caught him a couple times, but there was never a time when I thought Jones was winning the fight.
nah jones won 2
Lmao he dropped him with elbow to the face lmao what are u talking about 😂😭 distortion of facts
Litterly Controlled the fight the entire time but ok
Just_ortiz Ortiz I think the drop was questionable. I mean if you’re counting a knockdown as the fighter falling down then yeah, but it looked more like Santos dipped the shot and fell.
