The Only True Undefeated Fighter In All Of MMA.
Fans Argue While Debating If Jon Jones Is Truly Undefeated In His Career Jones’ controversial disqualification is still a talking point. The career of Jon Jones is always going to be talked about in the greatest of all time conversation but there are a few caveats to address with this.
Unlike some of the other candidates for a spot on MMA’s Mount Rushmore, Jones has multiple exclamation marks hanging over his 29-fight career. Whilst the various suspensions over the years will always be a talking point and moral grey area for a lot of fans, most seem to agree that one such asterisk on his record is easily ignored. The only loss on Jones’ career remains his fourth fight in the UFC back in 2009 where he was disqualified against Matt Hamill. The 12-6 elbow rule has always been a controversial one with Dana White saying in the past that he wishes to get this specific loss overturned.
Following CSAC Executive Director Andy Foster’s comments on attempting to remove this rule, the question then becomes should Jones be considered undefeated? MMA fans debate whether Jon Jones should be considered undefeated MMA fans took to X to debate their opinions on whether Jones’ loss should be overturned. The post from MMA Uncensored states that Jones, after all, went outside the rules so regardless of whether or not the rule should have existed in the first place, the loss still stands.
The replies saw a lot of disagreement whilst others looked to change the conversation ever so slightly. “He’s been disqualified, Not defeated. Jon Jones is undefeated.” “And Reyes Beat him” “Yeah. The only true undefeated fighter in all of MMA is Chael Sonnen” “Absolutely he’s not undefeated, Reyes whooped him , and got robbed .” “Until you watch that fight and see Jones dominating the entire time” Let us know your thoughts…
