The event had great cards, and fans were excited to see every fight on the main card. There was no lackluster lineup in this event. Turns out, it was even interesting enough to cater to the attention of boxing fanatic, Amir Tyson. It is obvious as the main event featured Jon Jones, fighting first time in the Heavyweight division for the championship against Ciryl Gane.

Amir Tyson shares words of praise for Jon Jones

Amir Tyson posted a story on his Instagram, right after the fight was over. He praised Jon Jones as the fighter who was once arguably the most dominant champion in the UFC’s Light Heavyweight division and has now moved up to establish his reign in the Heavyweight division. It is safe to say that with a 2:04 minute finish of the french fighter, Jones made it look easy. Notably, Conor McGregor praised ‘Bones’ following his victory, stating that the American “should have had two belts presented to him.”

Mike Tyson’s son found it amusing that the fight was over in just two minutes of the first round, with ‘Bones’ dominating Gane the whole time. The caption on his Story read, “Greatest mma fighter of all time by far. Came back after 3 years and won the fight and title in two minutes lol #beast“.

Jon Jones made his debut in the division with a humongous bang. He executed his game plan against ‘Bon Gamin’ perfectly. He told Joe Rogan after the fight that he knew it wouldn’t be wise to play against Gane using kickboxing, as he felt a bit “goofy in the legs”.

Jon Jones said that he knew that the match was in his hands when he had taken Ciryl Gane to the ground, as he’s been wrestling since he was 12 years old. Since his victory, fans have come up in acknowledgment of Jon Jones’ greatness, with many also considering the ‘GOAT debate’ settled.
