The legendary ex-UFC champion in two weight categories Randy Couture explained why he does not consider the current title holder in the heavy division Jon Jones the greatest fighter in the history of mixed martial arts.
āAll this talk about the greatest is a very subjective thing, and there should be criteria that include everything that happens outside the cage, not just what you do in the cage, to be considered the greatest. And I think some of the events that happened to John call that into question. He is perhaps one of the most technically and athletically gifted fighters we have seen in this sport.
HeĀ wrestled, but why wasnāt he at a Division I college? I know that he contacted several. And what happened that prevented him from entering one of them, an athlete as talented as he? The answer to these questions will tell you everything you need to know,ā the veteran said in an interview with Sportsnaut.
Let us remind you that just today it became known that Jones withdrew from the fight against Stipe Miocic due to injury. Jolzh's meeting was to headline the UFC 295 show, which will take place on November 11 in New York.
