Jon Jones Takedown Defence

[dt]

Aside from Jones being far bigger than nearly all of his opponents and having an insane reach advantage, the thing that impressed me the most was his takedown defense versus DC. You simply cannot overstate how impressive his wrestling/takedown defense was in his fights with DC who is one of the greatest wrestlers we've ever seen in MMA.

There's a legend which says that dc is still trying to take Jones down to this day

1:28, literally a great timed takedown after the strike, but John’s sprawl was impeccable

Jones' best TDD moment is not in this video. It was against Rampage. He dodged a missing strike from Jones to time a takedown perfectly, but Jones was so incredibly fast and athletic that after the spin he still stuffed the TD. It was unreal.

you are really the best! Thank you so so much for putting these together!

Wrestling is BY FAR the most important part of MMA.

Gustafson was the first one to take down Jones. Just imagine a boxer doing that

[jakehightower]

That takedown defense by Jon Jones @3:21 was insane.

[jaybee]

So many killers on his resume. Very impressive

[henryian]

He mowed down all of the best heavyweights in USC. If DC cant take you down, no one can.

[H.K.]

Best takedown defender in UFC history.

[juliannakaberovsky]

No one can takedown this guy, he is tall, strong and wrestle since 11yo! He the best!

[trebormorningstar]

Remember DC was an olympic level wrestler.

I thought GSP had a better TD defense.but Bones looks so impressive here

[sanjeevkumar-wpxf]

His takedown defence is so beautiful and badass at same time bro

[DougFunnyFrozenDrink]

Defence goes around your yard.
Defense is what Jon Jones has.

[MrLeiduowen]

I wish we could see a light heavyweight-sized Khabib fighting JBJ.

[asimkhan]

You have to be taller than Jones and stronger than Jones to take him down (only after he’s exhausted).

[Tony-mpv]

Bones is an MMA Genius! 🙏✝️🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷🥷

[DanielSmith-lved]

I tell you a secret. Jon wears those shorts with a split so noone grabs his shorts to take him down lol
