Joe Rogan pratade nyligen om UFC:s lätta tungviktsmästare Jon Jones på sin podcast, där han bland annat diskuterade om varför så många inte tycker om Jones. Nu har Dana White valt att ge sig in i diskussionen, och enligt honom så är Jon väldigt populär.
Detta hade Dana att säga om det hela, via ”UFC.com”:
Who says Jones isn’t popular? I mean, as far as our business goes, Jones is very popular. I think Joe is saying, ‘Why isn’t he this massive superstar? The guy is so talented, his brothers are two NFL players, etcetera, etcetera.’ There’s no doubt that Jon has had his share of issues since he’s been the champ, but I wouldn’t say that Jon Jones isn’t popular.
Mike Tyson is black. Muhammad Ali is black. LeBron James is black. There are a lot of guys out there that are black that people love. There’s people out there that don’t like them too. But you’re a human being, man. Some people are going to like you and some people aren’t. I’m white. There’s a lot of people that like me and a lot of people that don’t.
Härnäst ser vi Jon inne i oktagonen vid UFC 182 den 3 januari, då han tar sig an Daniel Cormier i Las Vegas.
