BTL | Reaction To Jon Jones GOAT Promo, Pereira Teases Middleweight Return, UFC vs. Bellator, More
Just when you thought the Dana White promotional push of Jon Jones' UFC greatness would slow down a touch, it got taken to another level this week with a promo dedicated to Jones being the greatest fighter in the promotion's history. Was this a move that should be taken as a positive one, or negative?
On an all-new episode of Between the Links, the panel reacts to the airing of the Jones promo during Tuesday's edition of DWCS, how White has been handling the situation, along with the UFC heavyweight champ. Additionally, topics include Alex Pereira teasing a move to middleweight to fight Dricus du Plessis after his UFC 307 main event with Khalil Rountree Jr., Shavkat Rakhmonov claiming Belal Muhammad declined a title fight for October, and the back-and-forth continuing between the two, the UFC bringing UFC Vegas 97 headlined by Gilbert Burns vs. Sean Brady, while Bellator counters with Bellator San Diego with a lightweight title fight between Usman Nurmagomedov and Alexander Shabily, and more.
Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and Shaun Al-Shatti.
