Jon Jones drops one-line reaction to Joe Rogan naming him among the greatest UFC fighter of all time during Donald Trump episode
Jon Jones recently shared his reaction to Joe Rogan calling him one of the greatest UFC fighters of all time. The reigning UFC heavyweight champion acknowledged the famous podcaster's praise and took to social media to drop a one-line response.
In a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast with Donald Trump (#2219), the former POTUS asked who Rogan thought was the greatest MMA fighter of all time. Rogan admitted that there were a number of fighters who could fit the bill and explained why many considered Jones to be the greatest, saying:
"There's a lot of arguments for who's the greatest of all time. Jon Jones, most people would say, is the greatest of all time. Never lost. There's certainly a very good argument for that. There's another argument for Georges St-Pierre. I always believe in BJ Penn in his prime, Anderson Silva in his prime. 'Mighty Mouse' [Demetrious Johnson]. People forget about 'Mighty Mouse' because he's a smaller guy."
Jones shared a clip of Rogan's conversation with Trump on the JRE podcast in an X post and wrote:
"What a great time to be alive."
UFC heavyweight believes Jon Jones is being subjected to "complete disrespect" in P4P rankings
Derrick Lewis believes Jon Jones is being disrespected on the UFC pound-for-pound (P4P) rankings list. Lewis also shared his thoughts on the Jones vs. Stipe Miocic title fight at UFC 309 and predicted a statement victory for the reigning heavyweight champion.
During a recent interview, Lewis shared his thoughts on Jones and explained why he thought 'Bones' should be at the top of the UFC P4P list. He stated:
"I think Jon will beat him (Miocic) in the first round. It's crazy to see that a lot of people disrespect Jones like that, like he isn't the GOAT for real. A lot of people keep throwing around the GOAT term and this and that. Jones has been at the top level against all these top-ranked opponents for so many years.”
He continued:
"He's for sure pound-for-pound number one. It's crazy how many of these guys keep getting ranked pound-for-pound without having that many fights. It's crazy that these guys come into the UFC now, have two or three fights, and already pass up everyone who has been fighting for years to get ranked pound-for-pound. I'm like, 'Damn, that's just complete disrespect.'"
