They should get rid of that judge that scored the win for Paulo Costa.

The #1 pfp fighter doesn't hold up his division for several years, duck the INTERIM champ of his division to fight a 42 year old full time firefighter who hasn't stepped in the cage in over 3 years. Refusing to fight the interim champ and unify the belts is not pfp stuff and any "champ" who ducks the interim champ should be stripped of the belt. Just a thought tho

JJ is not an active fighter

The Jon Jones glazing here is absolutely nauseating

Its hilarious how Dana talks about Jones. Jones lost the reyes fight and is refusing to fight the interim champ😂😂 how is that p4p. Also not to mention his doping charges

Whatever judge scored that win to Paulo should never judge an mma fight again.

Dana Oiling Up Jon Jones

Islam doesn’t really fight that much like Khabib. Much more technical and selective striking. Khabib is just unrelenting pressure and Islam is just an absolute complete fighter with the proficiency in grappling. No rushing in, not excellent GNP but such patient striking and unbelievable submissions. Both phenomenal.

Dana “Jonny’s PR boy” White

Dana thinking Jones is an active fighter is a problem. He last fought in March last year, it been over a year. There should be a rule for champs to fight minimum twice a year. Otherwise vacate the f title.

How has Dana watched mma for 30+ years & thinks that "Islam fights exactly like Khabib"

Nice to hear Dana commenting on Jon Jones during an even he had nothing to do with. We get it Dana. But Pound for Pound is not the same as greatest ever.

The guy asked if Islam would fight for the BMF title, Islam got offended when Dustin called him a MF

Saying somone is POUND 4 POUND when they don't even fight actively. Is Glazing! Islam is P4P

Dana trying to convince everybody that Jones is the goat is really cringe. “Gane the best at heavyweight” come on🤣

Dana glazing jon jones saying hes p4p when hes clearly ducking Tom and wanting to fight a 50 year old Stipe after being out for 4 years 😂😂😂😂😂

Georges St-Pierre came back after 4 years to defeat the lineal champ. Jon returned to defeat non-champ Ciryl who lost one of his last two. But GSP no longer makes Dana money, so . . . 🤷🏻‍♀️ @4:55 - the question wasn’t even about p4p best fighter in the world. It was about LW. Dana’s going out of his way to bl*w Jon.

8:02 Dana’s talking about Volk like he’s an average guy. Volk was on an absolute tear, and the rightful #1 p4p guy at the time. Let’s face it. Islam is being punished for not getting his title shot sooner. No-one in the Top5 wanted to fight #12 ranked Islam when he was on a 6 fight win streak. Jon just got his opportunity sooner. That’s not Islam’s fault. He’s on a 14 fight win streak and has been dominating opponents. Jon had one good win in the last 5 years against non-champion Gane who was 1-1 in his last two.

Still saying that Jon Jones is the current PFP but he don't wanna fight Aspinall

TOM ASPINALL WALKS OUT OF THAT ROOM DANA 😂

I don’t remember Dana giving this much praise to GSP after his 4 year (even bigger) layoff to defeat Bisping. Ciryl was 1-1 in his last two fights and had a clear wrestling deficiency. Had Jon made short work of Tom Aspinall, then the claim he’s the best HW is more easily defensible.

I believe if Dustin fought for the belt before Khabib won it, he would've won. After Khabib won the belt, thats when things become exponentially difficult.

How can you say Jon Jones is PFP when he is not fighting Aspinall?

The P4P ranking is NOT a referendum on your resume….my goodness it’s so annoying.

Cyril was the best HW in the world?????? 😂😂😂😂😂 stfu Dana!

I don’t think Cyril Gane was the best heavyweight

There’s no way Tom Aspinall is not the best HW in the division. Ciryl had a clear wrestling deficiency, which even Ngannou exposed despite having damaged knees. Dana’s done with Islam’s fight, so now he’s off to promoting his next big fight.

Dana oil up 💀

Jon Jones isn't "fighting" unless it's MMA Guru and he ain't "active" unless it's Twitter.

I’m a new MMA fan but man if Jones cheated 2x and is currently ducking Aspinall how tf he considered the goat 🤦‍♂️

Being active is a big part of being pound for pound . Since Jon Jones won the title Islam has fought three times and won , he rightfully deserves to be #1 in pfp .

Dana allowed Jon to move up to fight non-champion Ciryl Gane who was on a 1 fight win streak. But he’s not allowing Islam to do the same?

can't believe dana agrees that jon jones is the best pfp fighter

Two suspensions for doping and Jones is the goat? Don’t think so… He just found a new invisible product… Khabib was the best ever hands down…

Dana was full of nonsense when he talked about p4p. p4p means if everyone was in the same weight class who wins. P4p list isn't like the goat list or status, p4p is just about who is the best fighter currently and it can change from 1 fight to the other... P4p is based on recency and recent wins, not wins you had 20 years ago. Jon jones is competing in the worst devision in the ufc ever heavyweight , and in his last 3 fights he was fighting 2 journey man and 1 striker with zero wrestling, plus Jones should have lost to two of them (Reyes and Santos) two journey. And Santos came in that fight with both of his legs broken and was still outstriking jones clearly . On the other hand we have Islam who is competing in the greatest devision in ufc history (lightweight) at 155 there's at least 10 fighters that are more skilled than jon jones in every generation, and that a fact. If jones was at 155 he would be a drew dober level fighter. Plus Islam's last 4 fights where against fighters ranked in the top 3 p4p) oliviera was ranked number 3,and volk 1 and then 2 in the rematch), looking at Islam' s last 4 fights it's very very clearle he us the current p4p. dan white talks about volk being smaller than Islam OK well how about Santos who was also smaller than jon jones? Santos was a middleweight for most of his career and between 185 and 205 it 20 pounds unlike 145 and 155 which is only 10. And lets not forget volkanovski was the p4p king when islam beat him twice where as Santos who beat up jones was only a journey man...

Dana glazing Jon Jones a bit haha 😐

Jon Jones fought for 2 minutes in the last 4+ years and got a lucky win against Reyes before that. Jon may be the GOAT, but not p4p best current fighter. But according to Dana, p4p rankings shouldn’t place any stock in activity - it’s all about body of work, apparently.

Jon Jones vs Islam needs to happen

the one judge scoring the win for Costa = the one scoring win for jones against Dominick reyes

He can’t say jones is p4p #1 when he’s holding up a division

You throw Jon Jones in a room with anybody Tom Aspinall walks out of the room.

Dana as well as many others still are not respecting how dominant Islam has been over the past 5 years. Aside from 2 rounds in the first Volk fight and 1 round in this Dustin fight, Islam has made everything look easy. Jon may be the GOAT but Islam is the most dominant and active current champion. Jon fought for 2 minutes in the last 4+ years and he arguably lost in that previous fight against Reyes in 2020.

Jon Jones doesn’t walk out of the room if he’s in it with Francis Ngannou (or usada)

How can you call jone p4p with multiple postive tests

Dana looks a bit sour 😅

8:39 Bro basically said he thinks Jones beats Stipe. Gane the best guy in the world? Why do this you stubborn old man? Ngannou already in a low spot in life rn, you don't have to keep doing this.

Dana said Jon Jones never lost lost a fight ever but that's wrong., Jon Jones lost to Matt Hamill in 2009. Currently he stands at 27-1-0. Islam Makhachev's win loss is 26-1-0. He is just 1 win away from being on Jon Jones level in terms of wins, and in terms of PFP.. Where's Jon Jones been? why's he not wanting to fight for over a year?

Pound for pound doesn't mean one HAS to go up or down to prove they're the best. Its bascally, if everyone was in the same weight class, who'd be the #1.

P4p is Islam Makhachev

A little research shows the judge, Dave Tirelli, has a long track record of doing this.

P4p is about who's doing better at this moment, not the goat conversion.

Fire that judge! That was insane.

@9:18 - “put Jon Jones in a room with anybody and Jon Jones walks about is that room.” A few years earlier: “If I’m Jon Jones watching the Francis Ngannou fight, I’m moving down to 185” - Dana White The only thing that has happened in that time is that Jon has fought one time and submitted a non-champion who went 1-1 in his last two fights with a clear wrestling deficiency.

What the f is wrong with Dana, his hate of Islam is cheery.

Dana is hating on Islam

Dana is hella jealous of islam and is trying to make Jones who is poker a p4p4 king what an irony....

On the BMF comment… I think the BMF champ can fight for and win the main belt, but the champ isn’t always the type of fighter that fits the mold to be in a BMF fight… know what mean?

"I love Jon Jones, he is my best friend, we done some white powder together, we love that!" - Dana White

We all know what Dana really thinks of that “punk” Jon Jones. He’s trying to buildup his next big fight, which will be Jon vs Stipe. He can’t be honest about Islam being best current fighter, because the Jon/Stipe fight will be marketed as p4p number 1 fighter and GOAT vs the GOAT of the HW division.

Pretty incredible that Dana White does not appear to understand the definition of what pound for pound means. Pound for pound is supposed to ignore weight. Obviously if you put Islam against a heavyweight champ Islam most likely won’t win. Dana can be such a blockhead 🙄

Dana White going on to say jj is still the p4p it's bs. Like he forgot about the doping and how jj never accepts a new opponent on short notice. Even at heavyweight jj was afraid to fight ngannou, he and the ufc conveniently waited for ngannou to leave and they served him Gane which has no wrestling defense to facilitate jj the win. I mean, the level of bs is hitting the ceiling at this point.

I see Fedor walking out of the room.

8:34 - put Jon and Francis in the same room. Who walks out?

I’m glad the majority of the fanbase are against the, Jones is pound for pound number one narrative. One fight in four years, destroyed a French movie star and wants a gimmick fight with a 50 year old firefighter over his interim champ…

Pound for pound credentials should include "Never been popped for steroids."

Think Tom aspinall would have something to say about that Dana

Imagine going out in public and saying Gane was the best HW guy around

Nganou knocks JJ out if that fight happens.

I think JJ is and has been holding the HW division hostage. If he is the P4P king, shouldn't he be fighting? Anyone? Anytime? How about a few fights in the HW division? He stopped the division from moving on. Dana let's him do it.

Only champ should wear gold gloves

150,000 In bonuses is CRIMINAL WHY ARE THEY STILL PAYING FIGHTER SPIKE TV MONEY? ABSOLUTELY CRIMINAL

Dana white smoking some shit before saying Islam is not p4p no.1

Casuals don’t understand that the interim belt only exists because jones got hurt , the moment he steps in the ring that interim belt disappears

Charlie zelenoff is higher than jones on the p4p list

McGregor is gonna destroy Chandler. Dana White has only been thinking about keeping Islam at Lightweight until Makhachev vs McGregor happens.

Dana: _I don't do matchups immediately after the fights_ Reporter: _Jones saying he's fighting Stipe Nov. 9th in NY_ Dana: _I love it, I'm in_

Main card was great. Thanks for the great event!

You’ve waisted all our time, hiring theses actors from the circus. Expect a lawsuit buddy

Jon jones is the goat but he has had 1 fight in the last 4 years and his next fight for some reason is going to be against stipe who in the last 7 years has only had 2 different opponents held up the division that entire time and got brutally knocked out 3 years ago and is now 41!!!

I think Dana is trying to gas JJ up and get his ass up off the recliner ! It’s hilarious

Jon Jones lost to Reyes. He clearly lost the first 3 rounds and was handed the win. And he didnt move up and beat the best 😂 it was Ciryl Gane, a great Kickboxer, but literally not a grappler at all. Ducking fighters, failed multiple drug tests and waiting for an old slow Heavyweight so he can say he beat the HW goat makes you the p4p no. 1 obviously.

Did Jones suddenly get better giving head to Dana? Its no wonder Dana's head all shiny.

How can you call Jon Jones pound per pound when he has failed multiple drug tests

Dnt think ive ever heard anyone say Cyril Gane is the best heavyweight in the ufc besides dana

Jon jones p4p number 1, fought like twice in the past 3 years failed multiple drug tests and is ducking the interim champ oh yeh p4p num 1 him

16 title fights 14 title defences, yeah JJ is the GOAT of mma wether you like it or not, he fought so many great fighters from different eras. When we are having the goat conversation we need to judge by the results achieved in the octagon, and he also NEVER lost a fight.

The way Dana always defends Jon Jones makes you question if Jon Jones should be the goat 😂

It's sad that we'll never get Jones vs Ngannou

5:12 this is the point where any reporter/journalist worth his salt would have said "If Jon Jones is the p4p#1 shouldn't he be fighting one of the Top 3 of his division (or, God Forbid, *the INTERIM CHAMP* ) instead of fighting outside of the Top 5?" Dana is usually good at dealing with press but he 100% would have been squirming in his seat and performing Olympic-level mental gymnastics

Dana can't be this stupid to change this into a love letter to the cheater Bones - beat the best HW? on what planet was Gane ever the best HW??

Jon Jones is coming out of every room except Tom Aspinal's. The guy ducked Francis for 3 years and lost fights to Santos and Reyes.

I m pretty sure he wanted dustin to win so he can put conor for a title fight and get a bag of his life . May be thats why baldy a lil pissed on pound for pound 😂

Maybe Islam should go up a weight, see how he fairs there. Then perhaps we can adjust our p4p top spot, but even then, he has a loss, and Jones does not. Finally you really need to compare the opponents, most of Jones opponents were current or former champs, or contenders. I don't think anybody beats that record. Perhaps Islam can claim p4p by default when Jones retires.

Here to say, Monday was not awesome 😢

Translator guy, my hat’s off to you for saying IF putin will be president at the time he can come. As a Russian I hope he’s not and he’ll be too busy in the Hague being on trial.

Dana is really obsessed with jon jones, who actually lost his fight against reyes. If it wasn't for the judge card reyes would've taken that fight. Reyes really been robbed by DANA (THE BALD OBESSED WITH JON) WHITE.

So Jon jones is pfp😂😂😂 Dana needs to be fired. He’s essentially backing Barry bonds

Bro get Jon out of your mouth

my man Dana doing everything to promote JJ Stipe fight

Just a note to the UFC, at home on the big screen those gold gloves are hard to track visually. Make them black with gold lettering and stitching.
