    I would say this is the most blatant duck and surrender of a HW title in combat sports since Riddick Bowe refused to fight Lewis.

    I don't like him as a person, but I can't begrudge him for walking away. It's like Lennox Lewis did after a close shave with Vitali. There's always going to be another contender. I wish he would have done what GSP did, though, and not tried to hold the belt hostage. He exposed how scared he was of Tom, and it was just a really bad look to end his career on. You can detract from his legacy for the PED use (personally I think basically everybody in professional sports is on something), but you can't really deny that he was a tremendous fighter. He'll definitely go down as one of the most hated champions in the sport's history, though. I think that's set in stone.

    What he was also running from https://www.cbssports.com/mma/news/...r-allegedly-fleeing-the-scene-of-an-accident/
    The scum bag was involved in another car crash and ran away while drunk and drugged, leaving a female in the car who was also drunk with no clothes on from the waste down.
    His kids should be taken away from him and his Mrs. She lets him do anything in front of her and the kids in exchange for the money. Same as that other low life Connor and his wife.

    Showed his true colours and lack of character again. He’ll never be in the same category as GSP and Fedor.

    Wow. And yet that idiot Dana White would’ve kept that POS on the payroll.

    I really wish we got that Aspinall fight. Watching Tom flatline him would be so satisfying

    Apparently he ‘Threatened police with lethal force’ during this incident. :) When is enough ENOUGH with this parasite!?? Lock his ass up. Let him play Mr Badass in the joint towards the right people ;) Watch what happens.

    The comparison with Bowe is a bit off. Bowe was in his prime and had only one really top win. Jones is soon 38 and has achieved a tremendous amount, already GOAT probably.

    With that said, he has basically been holding the title hostage since winning it. If he wasn't ready to face the best challengers out there he should just have relinquished it. A totally shot Stipe as only defence in more than two years is a bad way to finish.

    Nahh it really wasn’t ‘a bit off’ at all if we are looking at the sheer blatant manner in which they both did it. Actually… jones ducking was worse because the POS took over a year to finally put out publicly the fact he’s too chicken **** to defend his title against his greatest challenge to date. While Bowe on the other hand, got the ball rolling pretty shortly after winning the WBC and surrendered it with that whole trash can debacle. At least Lewis didn’t lose over a year of his prime.

    That whole “GOAT” concept with jones doesn’t fly either. Lol! A PED cheat who gets popped multiple times loses that label ;) The word ‘Great’ is reserved for actual greatness. Not PED cheat cowards who poke eyes, stomp knees, avoid fighting HW champs in their primes only to get brave and ‘challenge’ them after they suffer KO losses and comeback in their 40’s after a four year layoff. lol That’s not ‘Greatness’

    In terms of legacy it was a bit off, since Jones had a legendary run before even coming to HW and Bowe had little besides beating Holy, but I agree that Jones conduct as a champion was even worse.

    As for the PED use.... It's a fair point that it at least diminish his legacy, yes. I tend to take the more cynical view that everyone is on them, but it is true that far from everyone has tested positive, so it's fair to hold that against him. The eye poking etc is for the refs, though.

    Who ****ing cares.. Jones is a fat old guy as a heavyweight… fans clamoring for this just want to see the guy lose and enjoy the deck being heavily stacked against him…ironically, the only way anyone can see him losing….. as if it’s a bold prediction to say a much younger, and much bigger prime guy can beat him… it would mean nothing…

    The issue with the belt is on Dana and the UFC, more so than Jones..


    …oh, and Jones is probably the GOAT, as despicable as he is…

    @Bokaj bingo, everyone is one PEDs. Especially in the UFC, where most of the guys cut 20+ pounds of weight, maintain the physiques of mini-bodybuilders, and almost never show any signs of depletion….

    You’re showing your true colors again. Jones is above both those guys. Dude is 40 and fought everyone in his prime. You just so desperately want to see him lose. If he beat Aspinall who doesn’t even have an exceptional resume, it wouldn’t even improve his resume by much and you would all not give him the credit he deserves.

    Jones might be the GOAT lightheavyweight but he didn't prove squat at heavyweight. And his style was really dirty with all the sneaky eye poking stuff he used to do with his thumb. And really at lightheavyweight he had a few controversial fights that could have gone the other way like Gustavson and Reyes. I don't care about the peds stuff coz let's face it they're all at it where that's concerned but Jones was a big old diva the way he kept getting away with multiple infractions scott free. If your gonna play the game do it by the rules.
