Welcome to Midnight Mania! Dana White, the CEO of the UFC, shared his views on Jon Jones being the best fighter in mixed martial arts currently, putting an end to the ongoing debate on pound-for-pound rankings. Despite Jon Jones having only one win in the past three years, White remains firm in his opinion. White even acknowledged learning about the term “glazing” from fans online. To back up his argument, White had a promotional video made by the UFC production team celebrating Jon Jones’ career achievements, although it doesn’t touch on his upcoming fight with Stipe Miocic. During a post-match press conference, White commended the video and hinted at the possibility of UFC rankings being determined by artificial intelligence in the future. Furthermore, a list of the top 10 pound-for-pound UFC fighters was created based on their recent performances and impact on the sport.
On the other hand, Jon Jones is considered a strong contender for the title of Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) rather than just the current pound-for-pound champion. Cody Durden has inked a new 4-fight contract with the UFC and will be stepping in for an injured fighter. The article also delves into some insider knowledge, such as Javier Mendez’s social media posts from the American Kickboxing Academy and Terence Crawford’s training with focus mitts. The piece covers Petr Yan’s wrestling skills, Vince Morales’ winning streak after being released from the UFC, Demian Maia’s impressive submission techniques, and more. Lastly, there’s a fun tidbit about balding men and their love for hats, along with a music suggestion to wrap up the piece.
