Georges St-Pierre is regarded as one of the greatest fighters of all time, but he has someone else at the top of his GOAT list.
Earlier this week, GSP appeared on the Pound 4 Pound podcast and revealed that he believes Jones is the MMA GOAT.
“It’s hard to find someone better than Jon Jones man. Jon Jones is extremely talented but he’s also extremely tough, people have no idea how tough he is.
“Most of the time when you have a guy that is very talented, it doesn’t come with toughness. Jon Jones is the full package. He’s got everything.”

“Even in dominance, he never messed up. He got to 29-0. There’s no one like him. I just saw him in the back and I told him I said ‘hey everybody’s crying but guys we got to have the most dominant champ the UFC has ever seen so cry now and then we celebrate later.’ Just a phenomenal career,”
