Jon Jones, former UFC champion in two divisions, named the fighter who inspired him.

"I always liked how Georges St-Pierre carried himself — his professionalism, the team structure where everyone played an important role. He was one of the first to come to UFC events in a suit. I wanted to build my career by his example — that's why I got to know Greg Jackson. He was one of St-Pierre's coaches, and as it turned out, completely changed my life and mindset. Emulating Georges was a great idea," Jones said on the NoScripts Podcast.
