The guys completely changed his life around... Lol what about Jones the hypocrite Christian? Maybe you should actually read the bible, because Jones is not a Christian according to Jesus' teachings. Many American Christians don't understand or even read the Bible. Tyson Fury is also British so it's part of our culture since 189 AD, and we still have a Christian Monarch, America is a secular Republic, who's leaders lie about being Christian. Tyson leads with actions, Jones with words. It's exemplifies the difference in culture too, notice Conor is Irish but doesn't claim to follow Jesus teachings unlike Jones. So it's a bad example to bring Conor or Tyson up. It's something D.C. Always brought up about Jones is a cheater, lier, hypocrite, fake, two faced, drug abuser, spouse abuser... The list goes on and on, and it seems like DC dislikes Jones because he is the opposite, literally. The whole DC vs Jones chapter, sealed Jones' fate with honorable fans who just couldn't like Jones anymore. Remember Jones was viewed differently before and after DC fights. It basically exposed his true character, the Christian Jones was a front. I think DC once said he was shocked about how Jones acted after the cameras were turned off.

I will never understand why someone like Cormier gets so much hate. He's an excellent role model and his only downfall has been circumstance and timing. It goes back to his days at Ok St when he made it to the NCAA finals only to have to wrestle Cael Sanderson. His MMA career was incredible with losses to only Stipe and Jones. His win in the Strikeforce Grand Prix was where he showed how good he was going to become. It just makes no sense that he is the one who attracts boo's and gets portrayed as the villian.

Jones and Cormier compose one of those real, organic narratives of choosing principles over victory and glory. For all of Cormier's flaws (towelgate included), the dude has always been consistent with his public and private persona. He dominated a HW division where he was undersized, and chose to take a hard weight cut to LHW for the sake of his friend and teammate, and dominated there as well. He clearly cared about his friends and family, and while he'll talk some smack to sell a fight (see: Ryan Bader), he'll also show deserved respect to his opponents, even Jones. And despite living a much longer life than Jones, Cormier has not once failed a drug test, had a massive DUI record, or resorted to a brazenly false public persona to mask his personal demons. In the end, I have more respect for Cormier openly shedding tears in the cage than for Jones falling prey to his insecurities by repeatedly cheating. Ultimately, a young, prime Jones defeated a Cormier who entered MMA late. I'll give Jones more credit if he can stay clean and still accomplish as much as Cormier did in his late 30's/early 40's. Until then, he's going to have every asterisk on his name, a reminder that pursuing victory at any cost comes with a price, and should not be rewarded.

Jones somehow gets a pass when talking about drug use for some people. They say 'steroids don't make you skilled/creative/etc.' That disregards so many things. Firstly, steroids allow someone to recover much faster; allowing them much more training volume to hone their skills. Moreover, in the fight itself, the PED's allow the athlete to be less tired, or stronger than they would be without them. This in turn makes it easier for that person to be creative during the fight. There's a million things his drug use affected during his career, and this in my opinion makes any achievement he's ever had totally void. People like to say 'Jones would have been the GOAT if he didn't fuck it up for himself'. What they fail to realise is that he may have never been in the spotlight if he never cheated in the first place.

I'm really bummed by all the nonsense that has surrounded Jones throughout his career. I was a HUGE fan of this guy starting back around 2010. He was this unorthodox, exciting machine tearing through the division. I thought that he and GSP were great ambassadors for the sport to show what it could be at its peak. Supremely gifted athletes with class and dignity. And then all the problems started. At first, I thought "Okay, he's a young guy with the world in the palm of his hand, he made a mistake. He'll learn from it". But it kept happening. Again and again. At some point a guy like that stops getting the benefit of the doubt. To me, this is why he will never be the GOAT. There is a different between being the best and being great. Greatness is about so much more than what you're capable of doing. It's about what you did do, how you comported yourself, how you dealt with adversity. Jon Jones is what he is. An incredibly talented screw up. I've got no sympathy for that.

How about just being a professional?

You do a great job at putting these videos together. You deserve way more likes.

The brilliance of this piece is in the nuance. Life rarely fits into neat little boxes of black and white. You capture that beautifully here. Well done.

I have seen that clip of him hitting his head on the car a few times but I had no idea that was the night he was inducted into the hall of fame.. it's mindblowing.

What an incredible documentary. The score was perfect, this whole piece was very moving. I still can't help but feel sorry for Jones. Us tortured souls don't even understand ourselves. Cormier is in a tough spot. If the better man was on PED's both fights, was he the better man? I feel for Cormier, but I think he has risen above those demons. Jones is already a tragic figure. Or is this the beginning of the tragedy?

It’s frustrating to see Jon Jones throw away multiple opportunities that no one else in life would get I think that’s where a lot of the animosity comes from.

He always questioned himself cause he always cheated. He never felt good enough so he cheated. He only cares about finding himself yet cares little for the people around him. He could change. If he admits he was wrong to cheat. But he will never admit fault since he wont accept blame.

Nothing "UNLUCKY" about it. Bones illustrated beautifully how Pride comes with a price nobody cares to pay.

It sounds like that's exactly what you are trying to do. And to call what he does just being a dumbass is also minimizing it.
