The doddering old man who also happens to be the most powerful person in the world made an offhand comment over the 4th of July weekend that he'd like to do some UFC fights at the White House. He wants 20,000 people there. He says Dana's gonna take care of it. And look, we'd be inclined to dismiss this as the rumblings of a crazy old grandpa who might sit next to you on the bus except, well, the scariest part of this whole fever dream is how utterly POSSIBLE it all actually seems. So … I guess we'll see? Look, though, you know what strikes us most about the potential of having MMA fights at the White House? How fucking LAME that is. Remember when this sport used to feel cool? It used to feel underground? A little renegade? Well, that's over now. That's dead and gone. Suddenly, it feels like we've gone a little TOO mainstream. You know who loves this idea, though? Jon Jones. Soon as this MFer found out there might be a party he's not invited to, he jumped back in the testing pool. SMDH. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jon Jones is actually retired. And despite his nearly unmatched in-cage accomplishments, the question remains: Is he truly the greatest fighter to ever compete in MMA? On a special edition of the MMA Fighting Rankings Show, Alexander K. Lee, Damon Martin, Jed Meshew, and E. Casey Leydon revisit the often-discussed topic of Jones' legacy in regards to how it compares to others in the GOAT conversation. Did the two-division UFC champion do enough to surpass the achievements of Georges St-Pierre, Demetrious Johnson, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Jose Aldo, Fedor Emelianenko, and others? Pound for pound, is Jones the most skilled fighter ever? All four of our panelists put a number next to Jones' name and make their case as to why he is or isn't the undisputed GOAT. Plus, in the wake of Ilia Topuria's game-changing knockout of Charles Oliveira at UFC 317, we suddenly find ourselves with three champions receiving votes for the No. 1 spot in the MMA Fighting Pound-for-Pound Rankings: Topuria, Islam Makhachev, and Alexandre Pantoja.

Get ready, because this episode we are going SOLO!As a avid fan of UFC and MMA, my journey started with watching Jon Jones vs Shogun Rua for the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and I've been a massive fan of Bones since. With the consensus Greatest of All Time Jon Jones announcing his shocking retirement on June 21st as UFC Heavyweight Champion, I wanted to give my thoughts on Hot Topics within the MMA Space; the much talked about Jones ducking Tom Aspinall situation and Jones's legacy as the GOAT in Combat Sports. "The One, The Only...."!
On this episode of Bad Speakers TV, the hosts engaged in a discussion about several trending topics that have been making waves in the culture over the past week. They began by delving into the recent NBA finals and the Oklahoma City Thunder's triumphant victory. They observed a shift in the celebration of NBA champions compared to the past. Moving on, they discussed LeBron James' comments on ring culture, arguing that rings shouldn't be a determining factor in gauging a player's greatness. Next, they explored Jim Jones' viral comments about surpassing Nas, questioning whether he has a valid point. They then turned to the recent retirement of MMA fighter Jon Jones, speculating about his potential return to the sport. Additionally, they discussed the recent release of XXL's new XXL freshman cover and their assessment of the platform's choices for this year's picks. Finally, they touched upon the current political climate, particularly Donald Trump's recent bombing of Iran. To conclude, they explored the reasons behind the attraction of average women towards above-average men. https://www.youtube.com/c/BadSpeakersTV https://www.instagram.com/badspeakerspodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@badspeakerspodcast https://twitter.com/BadSpeakers https://www.facebook.com/badspeakerspodcast

Even before the UFC could get to UFC 317 fight week, Jon Jones gave the MMA world plenty of headlines after Dana White announced that Jones notified the promotion of his retirement, and that Tom Aspinall has been promoted from interim to undisputed UFC heavyweight champion. On top of that, Jones had another alleged run-in with the law, which seemingly paints a tougher picture with each day that goes by. On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to the shift in the UFC's heavyweight division, Jones' retirement and what he leaves behind in the sport, and Aspinall's promise to get the division out of the mud. Additionally, topics include UFC 317 this Saturday, Ilia Topuria facing Charles Oliveira for the vacant lightweight title in the main event, where Topuria goes with a win — or a loss — on Saturday, Jake Paul competing on Saturday againsT Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and the lack of buzz for the event, and more.

Two years after Tom Aspinall said he would retire Jon Jones without even fighting him, that's exactly what happened as UFC president Dana White relayed the news of Jones' exit at the UFC Baku postfight press conference. Less than one hour later, reports surfaced of a criminal summons filed in Albuquerque Metro Court accusing Jones of a misdemeanor charge of fleeing the scene of an accident in February. What does it say about Jones' true legacy that the end of such an unrivaled 17-year pro career would come in the most Jon Jones way possible? Minutes after announcing fans could expect double the amount of Dana White Contender Series cards in their next broadcasting deal, White quickly shot down any thought of Tom Aspinall vs. Francis Ngannou by disparaging Ngannou's integrity. How big would an Ngannou return be to repair all that was lost in Jones' title reign for the heavyweight division? Khalil Rountree Jr. dominated Jamahal Hill over five tactical rounds in a headlining bout to decide who's coming and who's going in the light heavyweight title picture. Rountree showed off the evolution of his maturity following a title loss to Alex Pereira by patiently picking apart Hill en route to three knockdowns and a wide victory by unanimous decision. How impressive was Rountree's performance? Plus, Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford embark upon a global press tour. And the fellas break down UFC 317 storylines. It's Morning Kombat Monday with Brian Campbell, Luke Thomas and the entire MK crew!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
