    This is one of the best fights ever in MMA history. Back when Jones had the Nike swoosh! Iconic af. Wish I could find a good painting of this fight.
  • @natemarx4999
    Its amazing how quickly Alexander Gustafsson has fallen off since beating Jan and Glover back-to-back. One of the greatest fighters to never win a title.
  • @profightsinfo
    One of the greatest fights of all time and possibly my favorite. I remember watching it live, the tension, the craziness, the friends around & memories, what a classic.
  • @Ju1tice
    the way Alex stops takedowns is fkn absouletely amazing.
  • @ApexHerbivore
    "That was a thumb to the eye." (No Joe it was the cheekbone.) "Let's see it again... That was a thumb to the eye."
  • Whoever scored that 49-46 needs their eyes checked, I'm surprised this wasn't an SD or 48-47 x3. No way Jon took 4/5.
  • @AQ-nr2el
    You can clearly see how nervous Jon was at that decision
  • @melaninfarmer
    Joe "Thats a thumb right into the eye". It clearly wasnt lmao 🤣
  • @dzss7002
    I always gave this fight to Gus, his hands were far above Jones in this fight. First 3 rounds was to challenger, last 2 for Jones. No other way to score this. Great fight by both, but Gus outclassed the champ
  • Both of the Jones vs Gustafson fights as well as both of the Connor vs Diaz fights got me into ufc and now I can’t stop watching it, so thankful I stumbled upon these on YouTube
  • @liamwylie8
    One of the greatest title fights ever 😊
  • i always thought gus's main problem was he would "spar" in fights. he resets position so much when its in his favor. instead of letting hi hands go when he has someone against the fence he would slide back to the center or not follow up on shots that at the very least stunned his opponent. I dont want to say he lacked the killer instinct but he let alot of guys including jon off the hook.
  • @Bowhunterohio
    I watched this fight and Gustafsson won rounds 1,2 and 3. They gave the match toJones saying he won rounds 4 and 5. In round 4 it wasn’t till the end of the round when Jones did anything that hurt him. Still no take downs and Gustafsson stoped all the take down attempts. No sorry those 20 seconds don’t win you the round. The winner was Gustafsson. I dont care what anyone says.
  • @maddawg7134
    Alexander is by FAR the GREATEST FIGHTER TO NEVER WIN A BELT.. Much love Alexander and RUMBLE who recently passed.
  • @yeahiknow69
    Easily one of the greatest fights of all time.
  • Historic night. The first and only time in combat sports where a fight was scored exclusively by blind judges.
  • @CARLGULA
    Hands down one of the BEST fights I've ever seen. They are BOTH incredibly talented fighters who were matched up perfectly. Truly remarkable fight! ✌️
  • @paulgodenitz
    48-47 Gustafsson. Rounds 1, 2, 3 Gustafsson. Rounds 4,5 Jones. We can only imagine how their rematch would’ve gone then instead of 6 years later in 2019 where Gus was a shell of himself.
