Dan Henderson has compared UFC legend Jon Jones to controversial cycling star Lance Armstrong in a fascinating interview.
While many people see him as one of the greatest fighters of all time, Jon Jones hasnāt been without his critics. From his antics outside of the cage to some of his actions in it, āBonesā has a few enemies out there and many wonāt be surprised by that.
Dan Henderson is a man who almost collided with Jon inside the Octagon, only for an unfortunate injury to prevent that from happening.
In a recent podcast appearance, āHendoā was asked to give his thoughts on Jones and his legacy in mixed martial arts.
Henderson questions Jonesā GOAT status
āIn my mind, yeah,ā Henderson confirmed. āIt would be tough to [call Jones the GOAT], I mean, yeah, I mean, itād be like calling Lance Armstrong and cyclingā¦ and Jon Jones tested positive more than once also.ā
Earlier on in the interview, Henderson was asked about the comparisons between Israel Adesanya and Anderson Silva.
āWell, I think he did a lot,ā Henderson said. āI donāt think he did as much as Anderson Silva did, but he also didnāt test positive like Anderson Silva didā¦ He tested positive, like twice I thinkā¦ Yeah, one was- I donāt when the first one was, one was after he was coming back from his leg being broke. On his comeback he might have been doing some stuff, but I think he tested positive one other time. It just put a checkmark on him, an asterix, whatever you want to call it.ā
No, he was scheduled to fight Dan.
He refused to fight Chael as a short notice replacement.

Pretty much how I feel, heās the best but heās a cheating bastard so doesnāt deserve the credit.
The godfather of legal PeDs?
Nobody knew about trt before Dan started bungalowing people aged 75.
Glass houses.
First row baby!
It was all good because we saw Extreme Midget Wrestling instead that night.
Bro I have been so tempted every time I see the Midget Wrestling advertised and I am shameless so Iāve been close to going. If you recommend though that is all the push I need to see some good olā Midget Wrestling lol
Ever since Silva tested positive Iāve been skeptical of all his UFC fights, especially the Franklin fights.
100%!! Iām amazed Dan feels comfortable sticking his toothless face and pincushion ass in Jon Jonesā business like this.
if Bisping did it, that would be fine. it took a monstrous dose of test for Dan to land his heelturn extra shot - and Bisping is the closest the sport has to a clean-rep.
2013, Dan Henderson on TRT: āIāve been on it for six years, Iād be getting sick and laying on the couch more without itā
TRT Hendo was nothing like TRTitor or Jonesā tranformation. At least Hendo doesnt flat out deny taking shit.
Even Rampage was on it, yet we hear no criticism for him.
thatās because rampage was also mainlining cheeseburgers
