Kick<\/a> broadcast with streamer Adin Ross. \u201cIn terms of accomplishments, Jon Jones has accomplished more than anyone. He\u2019s the best. However, if you talk about today, who\u2019s the best today, because Tom Aspinall he\u2019s younger, he\u2019s on momentum, but now his momentum just got broke a little bit. It was an eye gouge, but until that happened, it was a very close fight. I think we will see soon what will happen, they\u2019re probably going to rematch because it was a very good fight. There were coming forward, hitting each other, it was a very good fight.<\/p>\n\u201cBut if [Jones and Aspinall] fight, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t know. Jones is an anomaly. You cannot bet against Jon Jones. Even though on paper, you might say he\u2019s older, he\u2019s not in his prime anymore, but man, he\u2019s Jon Jones, you know what I mean?\u201d<\/p>\n
Though Jones, 38, has fought sporadically since 2020, his historical reign atop the light heavyweight division guarantees he\u2019s part of any discussion of MMA\u2019s pound-for-pound list. At the moment, Islam Makhachev appears to lead that list, though UFC champions Ilia Topuria, Merab Dvalishvili, Alexandre Pantoja, and Alex Pereira are also have an argument.<\/p>\n
St-Pierre, a two-division UFC champion, has secured his own place on the all-time list, and he feels Jones always has to be mentioned as long as he\u2019s active.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think Islam Makhachev is there, for sure,\u201d St-Pierre said. \u201cTopuria is there as well. Merab. Arman Tsarukyan is there, too. Of course, Jon Jones is there, I believe Jon Jones. I think I would put him there because of what he\u2019s done. You never know. He left for a long time, he came back and he beat Stipe. There\u2019s rumor about him fighting at the White House against Pereira, that would be interesting. Pereira is one of the top right now. Actually, on paper, you have to give it to him, that would be a great fight.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Georges St-Pierre is as perplexed as everyone else when it comes to gauging Tom Aspinall\u2019s chances against Jon…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":312922,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[444],"tags":[49,48,641,701,638,82,640,702],"class_list":{"0":"post-312921","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mma","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-fighting","11":"tag-latest-news","12":"tag-mma","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-ufc","15":"tag-ufc-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312921","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=312921"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312921\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/312922"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=312921"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=312921"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=312921"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
