Gable Steveson advised to cut ties with Jon Jones after UFC 331: ‘That guy is a demon’

  • Former interim UFC welterweight champion Colby Covington urged heavyweight prospect Gable Steveson to part ways with Jon Jones on Monday, citing Jones's negative influence following Steveson's knockout loss at UFC 331.
  • On Saturday night, Sean Sharaf knocked out the previously undefeated Steveson in 12 seconds at UFC 331, handing the Olympic gold medalist his first professional loss.
  • Covington claimed Steveson's overconfidence led him to abandon the wrestling skills that won him Olympic gold, while UFC commentator Joe Rogan noted the prospect appeared 'flat-footed' and over-hyped.
  • Labeling Jones a 'horrible person,' Covington argued Steveson must distance himself from Jones's 'bad energy' and surround himself with 'like-minded' individuals to succeed.
  • To recover, Covington recommended Steveson join a new training camp and refocus on wrestling fundamentals, the skills that established his early undefeated record.
