...who would be the favourite to win and why?
I'd still say jones because he uses his reach brilliantly
It didnt stop DC and Gus repeatedly hitting him in the face in every round. Is there any credible reason to believe Rumble couldnt do the same?
Jones. He's longer, has superior striking and even if it stays on the feet, the TD threat will still remain......who would be the favourite to win and why?
Rumble has better hands than Jones, by far.
But Jones has a shitload more weapons overall - spinning elbows, knees, kicks.
i agree about gus and thought that he won that fight, but he is taller with almost as long as a reach, so my point is invalid there.
DC had 1.5 good rounds, then the rest were controlled by jones because of his reach and leverage advantage. i don't agree on that.
I think there'd be a pretty small chance of it staying on the feet. Jon knows Rumble can...well...rumble
You reach fetishists are really reaching here
It would be Rumble by a country mile, of course with that imaginary stipulation that TDs aren't allowed
In a real MMA fight (with TDs), Jones would be the rightful favorite
Its not imaginary that Rumble stuffs the TDs from Jones, or that Jones gets only some brief TDs which leads to nothing etc. etc.
