"Daniel Cormier versus Jon Jones is one of the best rivalries in the history of mixed martial arts. Pretty amazing, considering they've fought only once.
Including this weekend, the UFC has booked this matchup on five occasions. The rivalry dates all the way back to 2010, when Jones told Cormier he could take him down during their first introduction.
Whether the bad blood ends this weekend or it proves to be just another chapter to the saga, ESPN asked some of the brightest minds in the game for their thoughts on Saturday's rematch at UFC 214 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California."
Trainers include Robert Follis, John Kavanagh, Firas Zahabi, Mike Brown, Jason Parillo, and other top tier guys.
TLDR:

Parillo - Don't count DC out
Buchholz - Clash of styles, Jones
Roufus - Unless DC changed a lot, Jones takes it
Hooft - Jones again
Kavanagh - Heart says DC, brain says Jones
Zahabi - It'll be close
Brown - Jones but it'll be closer
