Jon Jones Dismisses Islam Makhachev's GOAT Status

Jon Jones has stated that he does not consider Islam Makhachev worthy of being included in the greatest-of-all-time debate. The UFC heavyweight champion made this assertion in recent comments, emphasizing that Makhachev has not achieved enough to be regarded among the sport's elite.

Makhachev has been a dominant force in the lightweight division since winning the title, continuing a winning streak developed under the guidance of the late Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov. Despite his grappling skills and finishing prowess, Jones remains skeptical about Makhachev's accomplishments compared to the legends of the sport.

In other news, Michael Venom Page has reportedly joined the Royal Air Force, which has surprised many given his ongoing fighting career. Additionally, Nurullo Fazil, a competitor from the Contender Series, claimed he was attacked prior to his recent loss, which he believes affected his performance. Jones has yet to announce his next fight, with speculation surrounding a possible heavyweight title defense or retirement.
