No.
Really!!
2:15 imagine what it feels like when Jones complimenting you
U want me to pay 60 dollar for this match ..hell no I will watch the match and will also not pay😂😂😂😂
How can I stream main event show in the u.s.
This show is dope because you can tell how much the other fighters respect Volk & Rob just by the answers they give compared to when they are being interviewed by some random MMA journos
Loved Jon giving volk his props, two legends of the sport
Name of show?
@@Manuel-hd8qf Fight Week. It’s available on Foxtel and Kayo here in australia.
@@Manuel-hd8qf First take with Rob & Volk
3 guys all in different weights who will never fight each other. There’s no egos they get to be fans of each other. You can’t do that with a guy you might fight.
Volk looked very emotional when Jon was praising him. It almost looked like a tear of joy. Receiving a compliment from the GOAT doesn't just happen every other day
Yeah, he fought tears for a solid 10 seconds, and he won the fight.
@@Cook2430 Hahaha word! It was a genuinely unexpected reaction from Alexander The Great
@user-lk4cb1rt4w Agreed 100% lol
@@Cook2430 Victory in defeat..;)
You guys definately projecting
The way Jones smiled when Whittaker said: „you are arguably the greatest fighter of all time“ - real recognizes real
No. Jon was like "arguably“? Jon doesn't understand how someone could even argue something different. That was him low-key throwing shade at Rob.
@@aboyandhisdad7857 yeah he is a full narcissist
@@aboyandhisdad7857 who gives a fuck about fighters egos and arrogance. its fucking fighting. unless youve fought before even on the streets, you need a shit load of self beleif to do it. its somethin fans can easily overlook but fans are too much in that regard
@@bubblegunsoldier7484it's probably insanely difficult to be called the GOAT for 5 years and NOT be somewhat narcissistic. I guarantee 99% of all pro athletes at that level are narcissistic
He's a narcissist, of course he smiles
Love that Jon gave Volk immediate props before even answering the question, real recognize real 💪🏾
Dude I smiled ear to ear when Jon was complimenting Volk vs Islam. This was a great interview
Me too, so great to see.
Caught myself smiling like an idiot also, you love to see it
Haha seriously.
That is pretty damn badass lmao.
Volk is a lil big beast.
There's a couple parts of the video like that, and I notice myself feeling these happy emotions, and thinking, man, Jones is probably a really nice guy, and then when it gets to him talking about his family and community service and homeless people, I think, damn, i almost fell for it again, this guy is fake af!!
I remember when Volk was talking sh about Jones couple of months ago, now he is all smiles, LMAO
His prediction of how he would dominate Gane was so accurate! He knew exactly what he was talking about. So impressive
Surprisingly wholesome moment when Jon compliments Volk's performance against Islam. You could see Volk trying to contain himself after Jon responds, and he did well but you know a compliment like that coming from JJ meant a lot.
@@paarkour83 insightful commentary, ty for that
Isn't he accusing someone of cheating but how come he accepts compliment from the cheat master himself ?
Jon Jones tall guy with longest reach in the game beating short guys is impressive. Lol. Cyril will dominate this fight. No version of Jones can beat Cyril period.
@@abhisekbhattarai1583 Hahahahahahahahahahaha you clearly don’t like Jon, that’s fine, me neither. But I’m a realist. He’s the best martial artist we’ve seen. There are only a few guys that COULD arguably be better. Gane is a good fighter no doubt, but you’ve offered no case as to why Gane is better than Jon. Gane literally got taken down and controlled by an injured Francis. I mean WORST case scenario for Jon this fight is he gets pieced up so just wrestlefucks him for the rest of the night. Without Gane being able to grapple there’s really no way for him to win. If he had big KO power I’d say that’s a chance, but he doesn’t. Gane doesn’t generate power like that. So what can Gane do better than the guys Jon has faced? Jon has beaten people with a long reach. Jon has beaten the best strikers. Jon has beaten KO artists. Jon has beaten wrestlers. Jon has beaten BJJ legends. Jon has beaten people that have crazy cardio.
Please enlighten me. Tell me what Gane is gonna do that Jon hasn’t already dealt with. Anything can happen, but the LIKELY outcome is pure domination for Jon. Gane beating Lewis and Tai doesn’t do it for me, those guys are ONLY haymakers that stand in front of him. Then he loses to Francis because he can’t defend a damn takedown.
@@abhisekbhattarai1583 bro u can't even spell his name right 😂
Volk was almost crying from the praise he was getting. Shows how much respect he has for Jones.
My fight iq increased just by watching this video and I don’t even fight for a living. Jones, Volk and Whittaker having a discussion at the same time does this to you.
All 3 are greats for life
All three are elite fighters
Ha, good comment👍🏻4real though.
Whittaker good but he not champion like Jones and Volk
@@meetseth3 did you forget he was champion before Israel lmao casual
4:25 where men cry. This is what i love. You cannot break a man physically. But the moment he received the compliment/acknowledgement from someone he admires, he became emotional/teary.
Fucking strong and inspirational. Shit got me crying and feeling happy
Bro the eyes man like it was watery so wholesome man.
@@priyama9379 i guess all men/people who went through something acknowledged it. Wholesome
@@rajatchandra3209 For real man sometimes validation from some certain people means more than the achievement itself.
We all grew up watching Jon fight.
Nah Whittaker decided to start chopping onions right there that's why
The way Jon talks so matter of fact about his opponent's weaknesses is so intriguing. His fight IQ is phenomenal so I'm sure those study sessions are similar to the little things that Tom Brady sees. Next level stuff
I was just comparing him to Brady lol!!
Yea he's revealing way too much pre fight. Not sure if he's overcompensating
right on
Lol and what will you say when he loses this Saturday? Ngl I like Jones but Gane will destroy him. He's not the same fighter anymore.
Edit: Jones by KO round 2.
@@hercules_144 you're right...hes even better
I don't believe I've ever seen Jon so happy and content with his journey.
I have😂 he comes on as a full disciple of the lord every two years or so... Ever see his walking interview with Ariel a few years back?
Yes I'm with JJ again he reminded me why he was goated in first place after that victory against Gane I'm saying JJ deserves p4p 1st place I love the respect & gratitude in this interview.
You can tell how much with what Jon said about Alex really meant a lot to him, coming from the greatest mixed martial artist of our lifetime
Hmmm.
Can you really say that when there's Khabib who absolutely dominated in the hardest division without any difficulties?
Jones had very close fights with Reyes, Gustafson and Santos with a messed up knee.
@@m.g.3913 lol casual
@@m.g.3913 jones have more title fights in ufc then khabibs total fights in UFC.
There are leveles to this shit

@@RGNPvids they same level stop being casuaal
Such a great episode. Pros becoming journalists is what make this sooo much better. They know the REAL questions that need to be asked and you can just feel the mutual respect when they're asking n answering
Whitaker especially killed this, he did an amazing job. I'm blown away by how good he did, and he needs do more media.
@@Ritalie He’s a great speaker
So much better than hearing John Morgan with the 1st question....... always
that first question from whittaker was a really good one
@@fugginrambo it's not even that it's the dumbass questions they insist on asking like for example there's always this one idiot who asks "Are you a lock for this Saturday night?" what are they supposed to say to such a dumb question it's pointless to even ask that's not even the worst of questions i see getting ask most of these people don't even watch the sport nor do they care what questions their asking
Alex & Rob asking Jon questions is exactly what us fight fans love to listen to. Great interview all round, thank you fellas 💯
Yea not Anthony Smith 🤦♂
@@kashmung8402 hahahaha nah that was perfect
Pound for pound convo was masterfully answered. Jon has leveled up on his media game...
That was a politicians answer if I’ve ever seen one haha gave an answer without giving an answer
@@michaelsanders7484 what did you want him to say?
@@litman5584 I mean nothing really I respect his answer I’m just saying it was perfectly answer like our politicians do, so as not to give a conclusive answer and still be able to play the field.
volk almost in tears from jon's praise 😭
Yo facts that must of meant a lot because he does work hard and despite the loss to Islam dude is a living legend regardless

them steroids got him in a good state of mind
@@bane8305 yeah because I'm sure the ufc isn't testing him right
@@sourdiesel8344 they probably arent and even if they are he did his juicing for the past 6+ years for this
Wait for his after fight party lol
@@bane8305 And who are you?
dude this is why we need more fighters going into media, you can see in the questions and answers that these 3 dudes are basically just coworkers talkin bout work, shared experiences, shared knowledge, and that mutual respect cause they know they have all of those things in common, and all of that makes interviews come across as more genuine feeling, at least for me, this was dope
110%. SPOT ON. Why can't we have ACTUAL EXPERIENCED AND IN THE GAME FIGHTERS that can ask questions and give answers. The talk is AMAZING, really shows the respect, inhouse questions that normal MEDIA wouldn't even ask or even know.
You can see it in his eyes, off the bat. Clear eyes, and a clear mind. Excited for this bout!
Just a lil bit of weed
That’s what I noticed. You can see it in his eyes.
This is the most confidence I've ever seen out of Jones and probably the most excited hes ever gotten me, for one of his fights. He is absolutely going to annihilate Gane.
He talked like this before the Rayes fight, just saying...
That he did 👍 pure domination
@@ajbastiman5208 yeah, the guy was right
Called it
@@miso1995srb casual
Bobby Knucks fanboying out so hard I love it.
I'm feeling these two things about him simultaneously:
1.he might be a sociopath
2.he's fucking charming, man
Yep
Exactly the vibe I get
Sociopaths are known to be very charismatic lol
Best part was Volk trying to stay humble with Jon pouring the praises on him. Love it, love all three fighters here!
he looks like he was close to crying because he always said Jon is by far the GOAT and to hear such praise from Bones really got to him super wholesome
Huge respect to Jon for respecting Volkanoski. Jon Jones will join the list once he becomes the heavyweight champion.
Loads of respect to you for the huge respect for Jons respect for the great Volk
@@austingoodwin6941 huge respect to Austin for the loads of respect shown to Warrant for showing huge respect to Jon for showing loads of respect to Volk
@@shaaz141 Massive respect to sheraz for the respect shown to Austin showing respect to warrant's huge respect to Jon showing mad respect to Volk
Respect to all of you for respecting the respect that is respected here. Respectception, respect within respect within respect.
This is the funniest shit I've ever been a part of for some reason, much respect fellas!
Jon always has great perceptions on his opponents strengths and weaknesses and openly discusses them, that aspect of Jon's preparation is always bullseye accurate 💯
I'm a huge gane fan and I like him alot but I think he is a bit overrated, he has great striking for heavyweight division but if he fought someone like alex pereira who is 235 on fight night he might knock gane out. But I might be wrong who knows.
Jon has the sharingan xD
Really enjoying watching every jones interview, he's gotten funnier lol
Yeah, he seems to be in a better mind state. Hopefully, his past antics are gone.
really? i think he's cringe as fk... i lost count how many times i rolled my eyes
@@skitzcunt4213 you’re just a hater, stop watching him.
He’s always been a troll lmao
@@skitzcunt4213 I'm a big fan of Jones as a fighter and I root for him as a person, but i've been rolling my eyes quite a bit as well. You can tell he wants to be liked soooooo bad
I like this version of Jon. He seems more at peace with himself. Life is a journey, and it's crazy to think that this guys journey is posted online as it happens.
It’s so nice to see Volk and Jon praising each other
Just don't remind Volk of the steroid usage.
@@TehUltimateSnake Ortega has entered the chat
Lmao volk is a hypocrite, he praises jon and bashes colby.
"obviously jon.. i didnt know bout you poppin' and all that type a stuff but ye had yer chance. DONE!"
@@akiratrolliyama4062 Because Jon is naturally has a bad person type tendencies. Even he said he’s a bad guy trying to be good. Colby does this fake bad guy because he wants to get views and Volk is probably not into that type of personality
You can tell Jon is taking his opponent serious by calling him "Cereal Gain" over and over 🤣🤣
I love that lol that’s my favorite thing he does
@@shadow_realm47 SURREAL
Surreal Gain 😄...
Why do yankees do this. Cereal. Eye Rack instead of Iraq etc. Thick as baobab trees I swear
@Academy Of Street Dance Definitely strange lol. It ain't that hard to learn how to pronounce his name, but something like that isn't exclusive to Americans. I just watched a video where Robert Whittaker pronounced Shogun's last name as Rooah 😂
As bad and as much as he has messed up, I really do root for the guy. As a person who is far from perfect and has made many mistakes myself, and also the same age as Jon- I hope that there is hope for all of us to turn our lives around, and that it's never too late to do things right
Hell yeah
Hell yeah! Making big mistakes, big regrets, that can be the most powerful motivation we have to turn our lives around. I can acknowledge things he did were wrong, and still be happy for him now that he seems to be in such a healthier place. Good on him.
I feel the same way.
As long as you’re breathing, Allah has a plan for you bro ☝🏼❤️💪🏼👊🏼
Fact is he never said he was perfect! And when he’s failed.. he’s just as unsure of himself as the rest of us!
There’s always been a level of humility about him as he’s struggled!
If you’re human you root for people to do better.
As he’s matured he’s actually become more fun to watch because he has less to hide.
Almost scary that he prove exactly what he said here
Alexander "All that type of stuff" Volkanovski
Hahaaaa! Love it 😂
lmfao
Jon is at his very best when he is this relaxed, clear minded and fake humble
Jon is hilarious man. That dig at Volk shadow boxing in the club 😂
He's we spoken and charming which leads being called a psychopath by some
@@kashmung8402 seriously bro ? Like you would think a lot of you guys actually know him and are actually inside his brain .it’s a lose lose with you Jones haters. He talks like an asshole he’s a psycho . He tries to be pleasant and he’s still a psycho smh .
Super panel. Alex and Rob bring levels to the show. Love it. Thank yous all!
Jones is really charming and likable sometimes. If he wins and doesn’t do some stupid shit he can still have a happy ending
Maaaaan c’mon it feels fake af to me, he’s trying hard to make himself likeable it feels calculated to me
@@gululujalaja1656 Could be, but even if is he can still regain love from the fans.
@@gululujalaja1656 I mean he already kinda did just by staying inactive and letting people forget
Nah, I smell the bullshit coming off him from miles away now. I fell for that shit in the beginning of his career thanking Jesus after his victories. Never disappointed in disappointing me since. This guy is a straight up psychopath, buttering people up for the fall
Gay
The way Jones broke down Gane’s game gives me chills. He’s like a calculated predator.
And he did dominate Gane. This crazy mf man. The GOAT.
It's not that deep bro
@@Nic560
Just because you can't see things beyond a superficial level doesn't mean that others don's see things that you can't, because your brain is not as sophisticated
Jon has always had great fight IQ even as a youngster
The respect they all have for one another is inspiring!
No
@@paarkour83 😁
Volk was talking a lot of shit about Jon on the Schmos show
"I've kept my blinders on for 3 years, I've stayed completely focused"
Except for that one night in Vegas in 2021, where he was like "yo f*ck these blinders".
Oi peaky fookin blinders
💀
This was easily the best energy interview I have seen in such a long time 🙏🏼💯
Jon seems extremely relaxed.
This is the first time I've seen him pre-fight (I'm a Conor fan, sorry), but he is in such high spirits, I love to see it.
I feel the long layoff was an indicator that it was maybe a bit more difficult to gain the weight(properly) than Jon or his team may have initially expected. I think the long time also shows how committed he was to trying to do gain the weight well and ensuring that it was all functional gains(by properly I mean gaining it slowly and making sure it's all efficient mass instead of just weight). But him being able to endure all of that and stay focused is a testament to his drive and what makes him such an elite athlete. Getting tired of eating to try to gain weight feels real to me, I would imagine it wasn't fun. Glad for Jones to have gotten through it and excited to the fruits of his effort. Can't wait for fight!
Good chance you’re right anytime guys are moving weight classes i instantly think of Roy Jones jr
shouldnt be that hard with picograms in your system
definitely not, both his brothers are 265+. His genetics aren't working against him.
@@BackwardsKnees agree here. He was ready a year ago and trying to fight Francis or stipe even but nothing materialized. Also just signed an 8 fight deal right before this was announced and since he has always had a problem with his pay, makes me think that was the real issue. Remember years ago he was asking for deontay wilder money? Lol
Also this layoff allows his body to heal ANY lingering injuries we are not aware of.. dude is going in @ 100%
Might be the best interview I've seen this week lol. These guys are hilarious together. Three of the best fighters ever!
Izzy is getting jealous that Volk is getting chummy with Jon and Robert. 😆
not really hes actually cool with both of them especially volk
It’s all business at the end of the day they all have respect for each other
Izzy Filing his nails at record hi speed right now
Izzy and Jones are gonna be good friends. You wait and see.
This sport has come such a long way since the early days when I first watched it and we are all truly blessed as MMA fans to have this high level talent to watch both in and out of the cage. Cool people as well.
Champions interviewing champs fucking awesome
3 champions lol
@Werewolf ur a furry role player, get off ur seaman/dorito stain couch in your grandmas basement
Really like how Jon is handling himself now. Good to see. And Rob and Alex are both absolute legends. So humble....
He really does have that calm like he's the baddest man on the planet. No one can beat him up. He's like a lion amongst everyone.
Calm like a bomb!
I enjoyed the credit he gave to the Great Lyoto Machida, that was wholesome. Indeed one of the very best he ever faced.
You can’t deny the charisma of bones man. No matter how the media paints him as or the stuff ups that he’s done he’s still a very likeable guy
Also can you imagine what bones would be if he hooks up with someone like Goggins 🤯
Go get it champ!
He gets hate because he’s the worst human inside octagons, no respect
he’s a psychopath. great fighter, horrible person. he talks about helping the homeless but beats his wife… you shouldn’t allow his “charisma” to affect you when he beats women.

@@flyingmonke No they didn't - he served years of suspensions. Use some critical thinking - you can't be 'cleared' of testing positive, especially when you've tested positive multiple times for several different banned substances, several years apart - it's just than Dana put pressure on USADA to reduce the suspension for business reasons. And he snitched on some dealers to help with that.
Jon seems like he’s in such a good place man. He looks sober. Enlightened. Matured. He’s smiling a lot, cracking jokes, flirting, and it seems genuine.
He seems like he’s turned a new leaf and transitioned to a new version of himself.
A win would put the icing on it, but if he looses, I’m sure he’s still happy with who he’s become over these last couple of years off
Nothing has changed. He is trying to accept who he is, but deep down he still is a parasitical narcissist.
Whittaker does well as an interviewer!!!!
Imagine getting complimented by the GOAT!! Alex and Rob were great in this interview, definitely need more of these types of interviews!!
Love him or hate him. We all miss him either way.
Jon look happy completely relaxed. I don't think I've ever seen him so relaxed. I'm rooting for him to put on a spectacular performance and show the world what they forget! That is that this guy is the best ever! King shit!
“I got a chance to step back and got to focus on my family”
He’s talking about his sparring sessions
Jon said it an did it like he said it.

absolutely DOMINATED. Jon you Goat.
Its so wholesome to see Jon Jones happy n smiling... Just hope he doesnt get arrested again😅😅😅
As long as it happens after the fight. 😂
Right!
He will. He can't help himself. He's a sociopathic narcissist. It's only a matter of time.
Hopefully he get's whopped, he needs a level down, he's been needing it since he was 18.
@Hue Mann he subs Gane snd then gets arrested and belt is vacant 😴
Jon looks happy. Good to see.
Greatness recognises greatness
Bro when Jones was in deep thought then said I'm getting Jason Statham vibes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is charming

lmao
1:53 Jon smiles like a kid seeing his idol when he sees it volk ecuase he respects him as a fighter
Love to see the respect between these gentlemen.
When he was talking about Gane at the end it reminded me of when he told DC that "all your training up to this fight will have been a waste of your life, you will lose, i want you to believe that." He kept his word then and i think he will now. I dont think Ganes going past 3 rounds personally.
Well you called it. I knew Jones would win but just didnt think it would be that fast like holy shit man. DC was faaaaaar more of a challenge than Gane will ever be. Honestly shocking how jones called everything towards the end of this interview. If anything this fight just made me respect guys like DC, Gustaffson much more because at least they did something
@@MarvoloSalazar yeah i said 3 rounds & it didnt make it 3 minutes🤣 ive watched jones since his ufc debut and yeah i have always thought for DC's hieght he was an absolute beast. Gustafson was really one of the first to give jones a real challenge. Both challengers were very humble as well.
Great to see a really entertaining Aussie MMA show. Also great to see Bad ass Bones back in business...I'm hooked on UFC again
I'm from New Zealand, but I'll admit, Aussies are great at interviews, they seem to be able to chat openly and get good responses from others. Also very entertaining sense of humor
If he were ever write a book, it would be called "all that type of stuff" by Alexander Volkanovski.
I knew all along that Robert Whitaker could be amazing on the microphone. WOW. Robert actually has a voice for broadcast, and he needs to do more media.

Win lose or draw, Jon is a legend. Loving the vibe
Damn, I feel bad ripping on Jon past years. Seems like he’s humble now & being better.
Did anyone else uncontrollably grin when Jon called Volk a badass?
i never like bones jones but after this interview for him to step away as the best and take all this time off and reinvent himself i have a new respect for the goat of mma seems like he has grown alot since his layoff

John has destroyed so many great fighters without a lot of effort at getting better. He's spent three years getting better, its going to be fun to watch. Natural gifted athlete
The smile on john's face when volk introduced himself was wholesome
3 of the best to have ever done it! Absolute gold interview!

Jon seems genuinely grateful for his gifts, faith, and opportunity. Great interview and lots of interest in his return.
