Jon Jones: The Greatest Mixed Martial Arts Fighter of all Time Rocking His Rolex President...

Jon Jones

Greatest Mixed Martial Arts Fighter of All Time 

UFC Heavyweight Champion of the World

Does the Happy Trump Dance

I live blogged the 2024 Presidential Election a few weeks ago, which was pretty fascinating, as both President Biden and President Trump both own and wear Rolex watches. Last weekend, Jon Jones won his UFC Heavyweight match, with some pretty fascinating pomp and circumstance surrounding it. In the video below we see President Trump arriving at New York City's Madison Square Garden, doing a presidential election victory lap of sorts, which might seem reminiscent of Caesar being hailed after returning to Rome.

I was so focused on my Mike Tyson v. Jake Paul boxing match story, last weekend, I decided to delay this story, but it's absolutely fascinating...

Also, this past week, I covered Rolex's exclusive sponsorship of The Governors Awards, so I would argue there has simply been too much Rolex related news lately for me to cover in real time. It's safe to say there is never a dull moment in the world of Rolex watches, as it's a fact the sun never sets on the Rolex World as there is always something interesting going on around earth with people rocking Rolex—and this is just one of them.

A Night @ The Fights

President Trump has been traveling all over the United States since he won the 2024 Presidential Election with his dream team and it appears he has been on fire with planning out all the details of his new administration, which certainly have their work cut out for them if they want to get America back-on-track, and clean up the severe mess left behind by the Biden Administration. 

If you read that last statement I made and assume I am a Republican, you assumed wrong. I am politically agnostic. I am simply a human being that wants to see what's best for all of humanity, and the indisputable facts are the price of many things have doubled during the Biden Administration, including milk, bread, car insurance—you name it...This is terrible, especially for people on fixed budgets, like elderly, or people with larger families.

President Trump is pictured below with his dream team including Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr, and House Speaker, Mike Johnson. It's worth pointing out, like President Ronald Reagan before them, all four of the people pictured below on the left, were once Democrats (pun intended ;-) Now that I think about it, methinks RFK Jr. remains a Kennedy Democrat, which he argues has very little, if any, resemblance to the current Democratic Party. On a side note, I recall a conversation I had with President Reagan, back in the 1980s, where he said to me "I used to be a proud Democrat. As a matter of fact, I voted for FDR, all four times."

Strangest Bedfellows

American culture has long been a fan of pugilistic endeavors. Weekends in the U.S. for the past 250+ years have been entertained with prize fights, and last weekend the world saw an unmatched spectacle with President Trump holding court at the Jon Jones UFC fight. 

In the photo below we see President Trump flanked by RFK Jr., Dana White, Kid Rock and Elon Musk. Notice Kid Rock is rocking his Rolex President, Day-Date as he has his arm around Elon Musk.

The RFK Jr. / President Trump dynamic is super bizarre if you think about it. I mean, what strange bedfellows they make. RFK Jr. mounted a pretty courageous and effective presidential campaign himself against Trump in 2024, but then gave it all up to be a member of Trump's team, and of course we now know Trump appointed RFK Jr.,  Director of The United State Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which is a very powerful position in the U.S. government, as the HHS controls the CDC, FDA, NIH, and all of America's Health System. The Directorship of HHS, is a cabinet-level executive branch department of the U.S. Federal government which was created to protect the health of the U.S. population, while providing essential human services.The HHS motto is "Improving the health, safety, and well-being of American."

Just by having Elon Musk and RFK Jr., by his side, Trump has the opportunity to completely revolutionize and significantly overhaul the United States, which is a very exiting value proposition...

I am going to go out on a limb, and say methinks RFK Jr., perceives or relates to President Donald J. Trump, as he kind of reminds him of his Uncle, President John F. Kennedy, and thus he ultimately feels very comfortable in his presence, perhaps in the same way his father, RFK Sr., was totally loyal to his brother, JFK. 

If I told you the photo above was a photo of RFK Jr., with his uncle JFK taken in 2024, you might mistake Trump for JFK, in the sense Trump has the full head of hair, is tan (looking) with the big smile JFK had, along with the conservative suit style. The photo below, which appears courtesy of RFK Jr., shows him with his Uncle, President John F. Kennedy, who autographed the photo and said, "A President gets his advice from many sources."

President Trump is obviously NOT President Kennedy, but has a kind of similar vibe. Both came from families with self-made fathers that were really wealthy. The both part their hair on the left side. They both have big teeth, with big full smiles, and they both have a clean-cut ivy league style of dressing.

If somebody told you the man pictured below was the same man pictured above, 4 decades later, it would not seem that far-fetched.

    “The vision recurs; the eastern sun has a second rise; history repeats her tale unconsciously, and goes off into a mystic rhyme; ages are prototypes of other ages, and the winding course of time brings us round to the same spot again.”  

—Mystic Rhyme (1845)

Jon Jones

Greatest Mixed Martial Arts Fighter of All Time 

Jon Jones fought Stipe Miocic in UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden in New York, and basically knocked him out with a roundhouse back kick to the ribs, which will likely go down in history as one of the most iconic UFC moments.

Jon Jones set a new record as he became the first fighter in UFC history to successfully defend his title in three different title reigns. 

I was talking with my longtime pal, Michael Young, about the Jon Jones fight. Michael and I used to practice Karate together many years ago, and today he is an ardent student of Krav Maga, and Michael quipped:

    "Jon "Bones" Jones is a beast with a very dark history. His fighting IQ is the highest of anyone in history. He’s basically the GOAT because he trains and thinks differently than anyone else and there’s a fire in him just like a trained assassin. He has skills that are beyond anyone else that we have seen so far. As an example, Jones went up a weight class and won that as well, which is an extremely difficult thing to achieve...

I train in Krav Maga 3 days a week, and Jon Jones is somebody I study a great deal! I’m working on my spinning elbow because of him. When I saw him bend the knee to Trump I almost started crying. One of the greatest moments in sports!! Like bowing to Ceasar! I have never seen anything like that in my 61 years. That’s something you did 1000 years ago."

Then, much to everybody's surprise, Jon Jones did a Trump Happy Dance, which Joe Rogan thought was really funny.

Then Jon Jones proceeded to climb over the fence to shake hands with President Trump.

Jon Jones handed President Trump his UFC championship belt which we see Trump holding below, as to suggest he was America's champion. This was kind of ironic in the sense that just nine days earlier, Trump held a rally at Madison Square Garden on October 27, which featured jokes from a comedian many people felt might turn-off voters and destroy Trump's election campaign.

Jon Jones fought the most decorated heavyweight in UFC history, and won, and in the images below we see President Trump giving Jones a congratulatory handshake.

Celebratory Meal After The Fights

Aboard Trump Force One

It's nice to see Trump and his A-Team of X-Men, decided to take a break from reinventing the American government on Saturday night, November 16th, 2024 as they decided to attend the UFC Heavyweight fight at Madison Square Garden.

In the photo below we see Trump with his team dining on McDonald's aboard Trump's Force One Airplane (pictured above) after UFC 309, and the look on RFK Jr's face is priceless...Make America Healthy Again (MAHA)...It's fascinating to note that Trump loves McDonald's and at age 78 seems to be perfectly healthy...If you closely examine the photo we see that Trump apparently had a Big Mac and a Fish Fillet, and Elon is having a Quarter Pounder with Cheese and 10 Chicken Nuggets...

Also, notice Trump has his iPhone sitting on the table in front of him. It's also extremely ironic, that Trump being a multi-billionaire could have the most fancy gourmet frou-frou food served on his highly customized Boeing 757 airplane, but instead choses to dine on simple McDonald's fast-food..

Jon Jones Rolex President

Below we see a photo of Jon Jones with Steve-O, and notice Jon is rocking his yellow gold Rolex President. This is the Rolex watch Jon Jones seems to wear most.

Below we see Jon Jones with Michael Strahan, who is also a big Rolex fan.

While Jon "Bones" Jones owns and wears multiple Rolex watches, it appears his daily driver watch is his yellow gold Rolex Day-Date "President", which he purchased back in 2013, which he photographed and proudly showcased on Instagram in his post.

Look Good, Feel Good

Jon Jones is a warrior and a man who not only thinks differently, but lives life on his own terms. He is in the same Pantheon as other legendary iconic athletic greats, including Michael Jordan, Mike Tyson, Reggie Jackson, Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Tiger Woods, Roger Federer, and Ted Williams—all of which chose to keep the time of their life rocking Rolex watches on their wrists.
