Jon Jones claims MVP MMA was ‘better than the UFC’ as he details plans to get out of contract

Jon Jones has claimed that the production of Most Valuable Promotions’ debut event was better than the UFC.

Legendary two-weight world champion Jones made a brief but memorable appearance on the broadcast, working the desk after Francis Ngannou’s vicious knockout of Philipe Lins.

Most notably, he claimed that the only promotion who could make such a fight happen was MVP, and that he wants out of his UFC contract. He has since spoken more on the idea, telling Denise White he was impressed by every aspect of the promotion.

After making an appearance on the Netflix broadcast on Saturday night, Jon Jones spent some time with his publicist Denise White, who shared a series of videos to her Instagram stories. There, he made some big claims about the UFC and his interest in working with MVP.

“I thought the MVP promotion was absolutely unbelievable,” he admitted. “I think it was actually better than the UFC, I’ve never been at such a promotion where they had the fog machines and TVs absolutely everywhere, as well as great fighters.
