About Jon Jones
The best pound-for-pound fighter of his generation
For much of the expert community, Jon Jones is the greatest pound-for-pound fighter in UFC history: the youngest champion in the promotion's history at 23, holder of the record for most wins in title fights and owner of a 28-1 record (with one no contest) whose only loss was a controversial disqualification. He won the heavyweight title by submitting Ciryl Gane in 2023 and defended it for the last time by stopping Stipe Miocic in November 2024.
Fighting style
His repertoire was always the most complete in the sport: enormous reach, strikes from angles almost no one else uses, a wrestling base that is very hard to overcome and in-fight tactical adjustments that few opponents ever solved. That combination sustains his reputation years after his last fight.
A retirement that never quite settled
In 2025 Jones announced his retirement more than once and walked it back just as often, amid negotiations with the UFC over a possible superfight, and he never fought Tom Aspinall, who was elevated to undisputed champion because of Jones's inactivity. His career has also been marked by several disciplinary controversies outside the Octagon over the years.
