@@blackmanwhitesuit Well people that knew Jon before the UFC all said he was actually not that nice of a guy. My guess is his publicist and UFC told him how to act and afterwards naturally we saw the true Jon Jones.
@@ulysses9285 I can believe that and people would be surprised how easily someone can slip into persona and run with it. The pressure from that good guy persona may have been responsible for his slip ups being more severe.
Wait a minute. This was actually a press conference? And right after he beat the shit out of Shogun he starts joking around in the press conference? lol
I came from the future to tell you that he defends his title 11 times, and its ready to become the heavyweight champion of the world.. the GOAT ladies and gentlemans
I wonder if Jon ever has nightmares where hes chasing down the perp and catches him only to turn him over and see his own face. Too bad he became the criminal he once chased down.
It's all about character . This is one good and decent person. He will be truly blessed. Hope he becomes many young people's hero and never let them down.
Jesus Christ how things change. It's sooo awkward bc I vividly remember this happening and just being like "this dude is like the UFCs captain America, Michael Jordan". FFD to now, what a fall from grace. I wish he had never ever had any problems.
I WAS THERE WITH MY 16 YEAR OLD SON..we walked through Newark City over a bridge ,then at end of night we ran 2 miles though the city over a bridge.A very bad parental decision! But we have a story for life.What a great day that was.I was right next to chuck when he got out of his limo and seeing this young champion destroy his opponent. We had the floor seats right behind the press.Once in a lifetime night.J.J.....for president
If only Jon stayed on the path he was on at this point in time. Positive character, karma on his side, world champ, Nike and Gatorade as his sponsors, but he threw it all away. Got into party drugs and steroid usage, got a big ego, went to jail and turned into a really dark character. Shame.
@myladyschild I went to school with Jon and can tell you he's definitely not full of himself. He's a genuinely nice guy. What you mistake as being full of himself is actually confidence.
Jon Jones is a legend, dude is so spiritually in touch and woke, and just tries to have fun with it all. True martial artist and good dude, so much respect, even through the struggles hes had.
@@derekfoster7198 He ain't pissing hot, scientists have said its microscopic traces from his last offence. So idk bro unless you got a degree in science and have tested his piss yourself. It's pretty clear he hasn't ingested any drugs since his last offence. Science my g, look it up.
@TheDeac65 Pretty much what I thought about going up to heavy weight, it'll be a different scenario then we see with Silva & GSP where it's simply their abilities being far ahead of everyone else's that has fans calling for them to move up weight classes with Jones it could be his size advantage. I thought he was overhyped as he was taking on the top tier of LHW but he managed to make Shogun look like a child. On flip side it's been while since someone made a successful legit LHW title defence.
I miss you Sir Jones! really miss you, just keep rising up and get back to your life just like you quoted. You are my inspiration, One day, i will step in the UFC octagon before I die, this I promise! You are my Inspiration Sir. I miss you so much! really miss you! :( i would like to see you again in the octagon.
@@jketcham9004 it’s just a bunch salty mma fans who hate Jon Jones with a passion for whatever reason. For exemple Conor Mcgregor has done alot bad stuff just like Jones and has said way worse things but yet he doesn’t get half the hate that jones gets. The guy probaly even does more coke that Jon, based on how he’s been acting lately but nobody brings up coke with him. Is it because Jones is black and conor is white? Might be, combat sports like boxing and MMA usually bring the worst out of people (fans).
When people hate on a guy that has just done the world some good by stopping a crime thats a good indication that there is something seriously wrong with some people. Jon Jones don't let the haters bring you down you have worked hard to become champion of the world at 24, you're doing things RIGHT and you'll be remembered as a great. I wonder who will remember these haters?
@johnsned i was saying this with my buddies yesterday. its a more possible fight too as Silva already fights now and then at light heavy, so no weight class issues will be a problem. as i dont thnk GSP will want to fightat middle weight and for anderson to come down i think would be too much for him.
he definitely really did have karma. All the beatings he gave to his ex-fiance, they finally all exposed him in one go, when his own teenage daughters called to report their father. When your own kids are reporting you, that's when you know you're not on the side of good
@dogg208 Can you quote n e thing that Jon Jones said that gave u the reason to think that he's cocky? I mean really what did he do besides destroy everyone that they've put infront of him?
When Bones was UFC's golden boy
He might have been and he beat DC,But the aftermath of the mental warfare made Jones a different person.

That’s called coke mama
LMAO!!
You mean coked up jon Jones
It’s called cocaine...there’s your answer to his “energy”
watching this now, feels like an alternate universe where Jon was a babyface.
Wait a minute. This was actually a press conference? And right after he beat the shit out of Shogun he starts joking around in the press conference? lol
Wrestler- Kickboxer thug life all the way
He was happy and hyped

Karma on his side and coke in his front pocket
Lol

An articulate fighter who looks like reigning for a very long time.

You are right

That was pretty deep.
Lmao

@Marcus Baller he was already doing cocaïne.
This Jon Jones was so much likeable
Red Hook MMA he's made a lot of mistakes, but I truly believe he's still well intentioned.
Laz Maroulis he is. Like he said he’s a bad guy trying to be good
@Marcus Marcus he actually did if you watch the interviews before his fight with Santos :)
BRUH THIS STORY IS BORING BUT THE WAY HE TELLS IT IM SO HOOKED lmfao
Back when Jones and the law could go in the same headline and be good
Plot twist: The Mexican guy actually became his turinabol dealer 😂🤣
I wonder if Jon Jones could do a replay of the day he ran away from an accident scene?

He goes “should I ground and pound him?” 😂😂
Jones is a true professional and gentleman.
Congrats to him...nice guy, hope he stays champ for long time
He has stayed champ 2020
Hasn’t lost yet 2023
And he did
Are you still alive?

He has always been the same person. He was just better at putting on this positive version on him back then.
thats called being fake
Kristovis Shame for who?
This shows that MMA fighters can do really well in street fights.
It's not cocky if you can back it up and he does!!!!
That's what people don't understand about jbj

man this guys got some seriously great etiquette. . .
It’s crazy how no one notices that Jon is off the powder every single post fight lmfao
This was the time when he was passionate, driven and true.
Go go go gotta keep running. Don't look back. Gotta keep running.

Not cocky, confident as he should be. As we all should be.

The best meditation experience ever
Greg Jackson is quite the storyteller.
he really is a grounded person
I’m a fan of both the Jones brothers. Blessings to both
Before the Coke
Bambull Ocean lets be honest he was definitely banging a lot Coke when he was a young champion
Before the dick pills
No sir. The coke was present. I think what you meant was, pre USADA.
He was coked up hear, he can barely catch his breath telling this story. Lol
@@robbyrobinson4500 exactly what I thought! I'm surprised nobody else said anything
I hate it when people say shit like "so I'm like, and then he was like, and then she was like" in every other sentence.
North American TH-camr It's not about being a writer. It's about being a speaker and the quality of your speaking affects the story.
Damn! Jo-Jo pulled a Superman-esque day. First he subdues a robber, then totally destroys Shogun. Not a bad day at all! LOL
Some rush hour shit 😂
"I'm like you know Spanish?!" hahaha
Still relevant after all this years....nice
I started barking? Huh lol
After he did that he did like two lines lol love jon joness
and also beat up his fiance in front of their daughters
