I think I'm the only one rooting for Jones. If jones finishes rashad I feel that he won't ever be stopped. Hendo will be the last hope

Mir should just pull guard on JDS. He can probably submit or sweep him easily.

He had better, he almost got KTFOd by Nog in his last fight and he did get KTFOd by Carwin a while back. IMO he has the best jitz in MMA, maybe Werdum can hang, but I doubt it. Nog wasn't just a black belt, he awarded black belts. Mir does actually have good stand up, but JDS...
I'm sick of Jon Jones already too, that shit tonight hurt my feelings. I never liked Rashad, but still, Jones needs to gain 20 pounds and fight HW. He actually has a huge frame.

Jones at LHW is like Anthony "Rumble" Johnson fighting at WW. Nobody can touch Jones at LHW. I am disappoint.....

in fairness though he is what 24 years old? he probably grew a shoe size in the last 5 years and just got past a squeaky voice. Rumble is a big sumbitch too he walks around at 220+.

I walk around at 225. Solid muscle from years and years of hanging sheetrock. Its too bad Im 39 y.o or else Ide love to train to be a fighter in MMA. Its my favorite sport. My friend works at Team Link in Ludlow Mass with Gabriel Gonzaga and all them dudes. He invited me to come train with them. I dont, cauze Im to old for it to pay off any.

Jones completely and utterly dominated evans, every single round. Unanimous victory by a landslide.
All that arrogance by evans in the ring, built up above his right eye What a victory for Jones, and hopefully now rashad will shut that flappy arrogant mouth.

I thought the fight sucked, Jones Vs Evans, in 25 minutes thats the most swinging they could do?

It was a Unanimous Victory. Evans got what he deserved, complete domination. He landed one big hit and that was it. It never even phased bones. Evans got rocked, and almost ko'd every round.
Here's some fight statistics : Landed Strikes Jones vs Evans -- Significant Strikes: 105/15 Total Landed Strikes : 116/49 Total Head Shots : 77/18(Mostly elbows, not fist)....THAT IS AN UNCONTESTED BOUT!

Jones said himself he got "rocked". and he also said it was his hardest fight to date. and that he didn't feel like he performed up to par because he wasn't as sure of his skill. I love Jon Jones, but he couldve made a way better fight if it wasn't for him being hesitant..

I think what he said was a head game in case there is a rematch. Evans being over confident played right into the game plan of jones. What he said, and what was watched is two different things. It was nothing compared to the rocked and rocked again assult that evans took. When evans got rocked he looked it, and it physically rocked him a distance. Jones, if was rocked, certainly did'nt display it.
I do think he looked sloppy, and I think that was dangerous for him. He could have very well been KO'd by rashad with his sloppiness. Jones has never been taken down, and he's never really be rocked rocked. I await to see how he will react to being lit up for once. He has not been heavily assulted. Most his fights don't make it past the first round.
I've watched two post fight interviews. I would like to see the one you saw in which he said he got "rocked"...he said he got hit a couple times and felt his power. Hardly being rocked like rashad was, he got rocked three feet to the right from a huge elbow to the head. But of course rashad being rashad, he won't admit to the millions who saw it themselves, that he got dominated, by a sloppy jon jones. If bones was not sloppy it would have been a victory by ko, instead of a unanimous.
Lastly, what does it say when the undisputed champion wins by unanimous decision over one of ufc's best pound for pound light heavy weight. And a pound for pound fighter who has only been beat once, and that was by lyoto. Jones, almost removed lyoto's head from one of the most notorious ko's in ufc history. Oh and he did this in a very "sloppy" manner. What's that say of rashad???? More importantly, whats that say about the champ???? Even on sloppy days he can still dominate the best the ufc has to throw at him. Bar none, that reach advantage has thus far proven to be the richest asset to any fighter in the history of ufc. Nobody has produce any answers to solving the riddle of bones undisputed reach advantages.

i was worried the whole fight he would run in and get clocked. thast was my only concern.

Yeah the only way I could see rashad beating jones would be in the same fashion he did the ice man. A bomb from no mans land, lands and its all over. I truly believe its within rashads capacity to ko jones. On any given day. But rasah played jones will, and none of those long range bombs ever landed. I think he knew that the only way he was going to beat him was by a massive ko, and in order to do that, he had to risk being ko'd himself. Which he almost was, almost every round.
I would def love a rematch. Just without all the bs hype.

I dont wanna see a rematch for a while. Let JJ take out Hendo's old ass and line up some more talent.

Hendo reminds me so much of rashad. Hendo does have a better ground game than rashad, but I would pick rashad to ko hendo. Think maybe Silva would be a better competitor. But then again silva is a similar fighter to lyoto and he did'nt have any answers either. I think you got the best idea, wait for more talent to come.

Hendo has better submissions than rashad, his wrestling ain't even on that level. hendo's only chance will be knockouit.and we just saw jones can take a punch to the chin. And hendo is slower than evans especilly at 41 he has a small chance.
