The former light heavyweight champion said it was important to cement in his own mind that he deserved the mantle of greatest ever.
With another GOAT, Tom Brady, watching on, Jones did just that. Brady flew in the day of the fight from Florida and spent time with Jones' brother, Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Chandler Jones.
"There is no doubt that Jon Jones is special, he is the GOAT. He is undefeated. He has fought all the best competition. Dealing with him is like dealing with an artist," Dana White said.
"I don't know what's going to happen next. I am happy we got to see what we saw tonight. I am a big believer in ring rust. We didn't see any ring rust tonight. He went in there and made it look like nothing. He is a freak of nature, and he is the best ever."
