Better title defense. DC vs Derrick Lewis or Jones vs Stipe?

[TerraRayzing]

Which one is more credible? DC had an injured hand and easily handled Lewis, who was on a win streak, in the second round.
Stipe is Stipe and far more skilled than Lewis but the one we saw at 309 was completely shot.

Which one had a better title defense in your eyes?

Well... Lewis was in his Prime with some Hot Balls... So DC.

Stipe is 1-1 with Francis and Derrick is 1-0 over Francis. So I have to give this round to DC. THis is the only thing DC have over Jon imo.

He did have a better college career than Jones too, no?

DC vs Derrick Lewis. At least that fight wasn’t marketed as a bait and switch. “Jon Jones, the GOAT vs Stipe Miocic, The HW GOAT”. Give me a break.

 

[Ibm]

DC is a foot shorter than the guys he beat, he literally had to jump to punch them in the face, we need to factor that in as well. He did amazing for someone his size.

 

[Pechan]

Derrick was coming off a KO win over a top contender...

Jones vs Lewis next

Both were my students back in college. DC was a straight A student, while Jon is always late to the class and hung over.

At one point he drunkenly asked me "Hey pussy you still there?" and I gave him an F.

Is this true too, sir??

Jon Jones didn't take Colby Covington's suggestion that he was using the welterweight's name to gain attention without a response.

Yeah. I beat Jon in that regard though, I told Jon when he bragged to me

"How taste my big PP?"

Derrick Lewis.

Lewis wasn't 42, was coming off a win streak and DC was injured on multiple fronts. He had a broken thumb and a back injury.

 

[cmw43]

• DC took this fight on about two weeks notice with no camp as a favour to UFC to save the card. Lewis had KOd Volkov a month before to get his shot so was in shape.

• Jones took about two years to prepare for a Stipe he dragged out of retirement.

DC vs Lewis was to save a card

 

[blaseblase]

Lewis was coming off wins against Volkov and Ngannou, Stipe was coming off a knockout loss to the guy Lewis beat and hadn't won a fight in 4 years. Is this a serious question? Stipe was already retired and it showed.

 

[Portland8242]

There's still people who can't wrap their head around the fact that Stipe was already one foot out the door before the fight.

There's a reason why mentality is preached as much as it is, these guys who don't have their head fully in the game lose pretty well 100% of the time.
