Gable Steveson continues to navigate the nascent stages of his MMA career. With Jon Jones providing the Olympic gold medalist wrestler with guidance throughout. A former-ranked UFC heavyweight contender thinks that perhaps some prolific greats like Demetrious Johnson or Georges St. Pierre might be better served to guide the fledgling fighting career of Steveson, though.<\/p>\n
This was expressed by Brendan Schaub on his YouTube channel during a recent episode of The Schaub Show. Touching upon this situation, with an excerpt of his podcast posted to X account @RedCorner_MMA<\/a>, Schaub said,<\/p>\n \u201cThere is only one Jon [Jones] and that\u2019s why he is the GOAT. The reason why he is the GOAT is because of what he did inside the Octagon. He\u2019s not the GOAT as far as outside the octagon. If you\u2019re going to take into consideration of the GOAT talk of accomplishments inside the octagon [and] outside the octagon, it\u2019s Mighty Mouse. It\u2019s Mighty Mouse or it\u2019s GSP. Those are guys that would be great mentors.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMighty Mouse, even though smaller, would be a much better mentor to advise you on as far as how to handle fame, women, family. Sponsorships, life outside the UFC, expanding your footprint as far as expanding your business reach, and stuff like that. Relationship advice, gameplanning, how to approach a fight like a professional. I would reach out [to] that guy.\u201d<\/p>\n Gable Steveson\u2019s former wrestling foe keen on MMA rematch<\/p>\n Gable Steveson is 2-0 in mixed martial arts so far, and also won a hybrid rules bout under the Dirty Boxing Championship<\/a> banner with a former wrestling rival keen on running it back with the former WWE talent in MMA. The wrestler in question, Wyatt Hendrickson was the last man to defeat Steveson in a wrestling contest.<\/p>\n
