Well these three should not be the only options for Jon Jones; but if we are talking about rematches and, who deserves one out of these fighters, then Machida.

Machida for sure if he beats hendo. The only one there who can really adjust his game and give new problems for the champ.

So I'll go Machida.
Until Jones gets his bear paws on him. Then its night night dragon again.


The first fight Wasn't like JDS and Cain .fluke knockout. Machida enjoyed minimal success in the first round (still lost the round) then was thoroughly outclassed in every facet of the game in round 2. Got manhandled into a takedown, got a huge gash put into his skull, then got out countered by Jones (superman punch putting him on his face) then finally standing guillotine him unconscious.

Anyone that beats Hendo deserves the shot.

I think you may have to watch the fight again and refresh. Machida won the first easy. Jones didn't land anything and had a few big shots landed on him.
And if you know Machida, you know that machida was uncharacteristically aggressive in the second allowing Jones to get his paws on him. Next time Machida will backpeddle and counterstrike just like he did to win the first round but for all five rounds this time. Just watch the first round when Jones tries to set up the clinch and machida easily shrugs him off. No clinch = no takedown = big win for Machida with his superior striking.

I think Machida/Hendo winner should get the next shot, then have Evans and Cormier fight for the next shot if they both win their next fights

Most deserving with a win in their next fight is Machida, I still can't see Machida beating Jones tho. If I had to pick a rematch I guess I'd go with Machida as well, I'd hate to see him lose again tho.

Rashad just didn't have anything for Jones and didn't seem like he wanted to be in there with him, he didn't execute any type of gameplan to nuetralize Jones or take the fight to him, instead opting to try to counterstrike.

Vitor I would want to get another legit win under his belt just to give him the confidence to really attack Jones and see if that changes the fight in his favor.
