When it comes to UFC and MMA, there are many influencers and personalities, but one of the most well-known is The MMA Guru. He’s known for doing it all—screaming, ranting, supporting fighters, and never holding back. One of the things that makes him stand out is his unfiltered and wild tweets. Once again, Guru has shared his thoughts, mocking Jon Jones’ retirement and calling out Dana White for quietly announcing his retirement.
MMA Guru mocked Jones’ quiet retirement, calling it the end of a “fraudulent career” announced casually by Dana White at a UFC Baku post-fight press conference. The retirement, revealed in just five seconds with no tribute or formal send-off, sparked ridicule online. MMA Guru pointed out the lack of ceremony for one of the sport’s most controversial yet dominant champions, fueling debates about Jones’ legacy and the UFC’s treatment of his exit.
“All that fraudulent career of Jon Jones just got retired at a fu**ing UFC fight night Baku post fight press conference in a 5-second sentence from Dana White in Azerbaijan,” he said.

No ceremony no nothing 😂😂😂😂
In most sports, legends usually get a big send-off from fans and significant names in the game. However, Jon Jones’ retirement came out of nowhere without any tribute, giving The MMA Guru a reason to take a shot at the UFC legend. The lack of a proper farewell didn’t sit right with many, and Guru didn’t hold back in calling it out, adding more heat to the already surprising news.
UFC 317 Could Feature A Major Tribute To Jon Jones
Until now, the UFC has not paid tribute, only announced Jones’ retirement. In the past, the UFC usually honored legends with a solid tribute after an event. Since this retirement came at the last moment, the UFC didn’t want to rush it. If a tribute happens at a big international fight event, it will have a much bigger impact and reach more fans worldwide, making it a more special farewell.
