heart and soul of UFC. My heart goes out to their families, friends, and teammates. We have lost

two warriors today, and the entire MMA community is mourning this devastating loss.”

Many of Jones’ and Makhachev’s fellow fighters have shared their condolences on social media,

remembering the two men for their impact on the sport and their sportsmanship. “Both Jon and

Islam were inspirations, not only for their talent but for their discipline and work ethic,” said one

UFC fighter. “The sport won’t be the same without them.”

Fans have also flooded social media, sharing memories of both fighters’ incredible moments in the

octagon. “Makhachev’s rise was so inspiring. He was a true champion in every sense,” one fan wrote

. Another added, “Jon Jones was the GOAT of MMA. He had an aura, a presence that was

unmatched. I can’t believe this.”
