Jon Jones tar illa upp efter GSPs hårda kommentarer: ’Kan aldrig bli GOAT’

Den forne lätta-tungviktsmästaren Jon Jones är tillbaka efter att ha fått sitt straff av USADA. Efter att ha misslyckat sitt andra dopingtest i sin MMA-karriär var det många som spekulerade att Jones skulle bli avstängd i minst två år. Så blev inte fallet utan han fick en retroaktiv avstängning på 15 månader.

Alla är dock inte lika glada att Jones är tillbaka och anser att Jones fick ett för lågt straff. En fighter som lade handskarna på hyllan på grund av allt fuskade i MMA är den forne mellan- och welterviktsmästaren Georges St-Pierre. GSP var trött på alla fuskare och steg åt sidan och tog ett avbrott. Till MMAFighting säger GSP bland annat att steroider ändrar sättet du tänker och fightas på i buren, och slängde iväg en känga till Jon Jones.

Look, I remember there was a fight between two opponents, and one guy said, ‘Oh, it’s not the performance-enhancing (drugs) that threw the kick. It’s me. it’s not true. That’s the performance-enhancing drugs that threw the kick, because you wouldn’t have thrown the kick (like that) if you would have not taken them. You know what I mean? So to give you an example, it makes you more creative. It makes you more hungry. It changes the physique.

Also, not only the physique, it changes the mind of the person. So with people, they think it’s only affecting strength and conditioning and stuff like that. No, it doesn’t. It’s not only recuperation, it changes the person entirely. It makes him a better athlete. And yes, I think they should be removed from the (GOAT discussion).

Kommentarerna verkar ha tagit hårt på den forne lätta-tungviktsmästaren som haft stor respekt för GSP.

It sucks when you have to hear someone you’ve always shown respect to sit and talk foolishness. But that’s the nature of the game these days.
Saying steroids change more than physical performance. “Make you more creative and hungry”. Do you know how crazy that sounds? I guess brain damage is real out here.

Saying PED metabolites threw a kick? Come on man. It’s called training and identifying a weakness. So much in fact I told him to his face it was coming and then landed it. That’s called execution.

How about rather than campaigning for GOAT status you get in there and dominate your next fight. I’ve had nothing but respect for you over all these years. Don’t change that now. You’re better than this
