Jon Jones praises MVP promotion as 'better than the UFC'

Jon Jones thinks the UFC has serious competition. Jake Paul ’s Most Valuable Promotions hosted their first MMA card on Saturday at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California. The card was promoted as a genuine threat to the UFC’s monopoly at the top tier of MMA.

Jones, who attended the event, believes it was better than UFC cards. Despite having been champion in two weight classes in the UFC, Jones claims he never attended an event like the one hosted by MVP. ‘Absolutely Unbelievable’ “I think the MVP promotion was absolutely unbelievable,” Jones said.

“I think it was actually better than the UFC. I've never been at such a promotion. I mean they had the fog machines and TVs absolutely everywhere.

Great fighters. ” While the MVP card had some up-and-coming talent, the major fights certainly didn’t have the best fighters in the world. A 39-year-old Ronda Rousey submitted 44-year-old Gina Carano in the main event of the night.
