'He hit Jon with that spinning back kick': Former UFC Champion Reveals the Name of the Fighter Who Dropped MMA GOAT Jon Jones to the Floor

Jon Jones, who is the face of domination in the sport of MMA let alone UFC, is a unanimous GOAT in the opinion of the knowers of the game. With almost two decades of activity, it is an unbelievable fact that the current UFC Heavyweight Champion has remained undefeated. The only loss that is registered under his name came against Matt Hamill. It wasn't a conventional loss but rather a result of disqualification for utilizing illegal 12-6 elbows, a move that has since been removed from the sport's list of banned techniques.

As the MMA fans always yearn for a good fight, the desire to witness Jon Jones meeting his match has remained in store. However, so far no one has ever been able to get the better of the pound-for-pound mainstay. Nevertheless, a claim made by former UFC interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit puts this assertion into doubt.

Appearing on the Jaxxon Podcast hosted by Jones' former opponent Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson, Condit revealed he had sparred Jones frequently during their time together at Jackson Wink MMA.

Asked whether anyone has ever gotten the better of the pound-for-pound mainstay during their time together, Condit confirmed that a former UFC fighter had dropped Jones during a sparring session.

'Then once he started sitting down on his punches and finding his power, I stopped doing that.'

He continued: 'One morning, I think it was like a it's like Tuesday morning, like 9am sparring. We're in there, tipping and tapping. We get this dude. 

'I don't know if you guys have ever heard of Adlan Amagov. He's Chechen, and he fought in the UFC a couple times. His last fight, they carried his opponent out on a stretcher. 

'But yeah, he finished a number of guys. He was like a spinning back kick guy, and he f***** me up. 

'And then I think a round or two later, he hit Jon with that spinning back kick.'

Asked by Jackson whether the kick had dropped Jones, Condit responded in the affirmative.

After moving from war-torn Russian republic of Chechnya to Moscow as a youth, Amagov began training alongside MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko.
