Calling all Poatan fans who want Jon to fight Tom

[BowserJr]

If you are a Poatan fan and want JBJ to fight , what do you want to happen with the Ankalaev fight?

If Poatan loses no way it makes sense for Jon

If Poatan wins they will make Jon vs Poatan

Do you still want Poatan to beat Ankalaev?

 

[Guest84]

Yes

I wanna see poatan vs jones more than anything right now cause i think he beats Jon's ass believe it or not. Yea im in the minority but I have faith in him, good vs evil, good wins, chama !

I wanna see him vs ankalev too at some point cause I think he wins that as well..


The narrative that Alex is useless on the ground is a bit exagerrated and perhaps inaccurate imo, it remains to be seen if he has improved enough to survive long enough to deliver the touch of death, all he needs is one good one and its over plus every round starts on the feet after all. Good thing he is getting pure 5 rounders.

He wants to challenge himself so I respect that, if he believes in himself that much than let him bang, I'll guarantee Jon and Ank can get it...fuck around on the feet and find out

 

[Egészségére!]

I doubt very many Poatan fans will want him to lose just to help make another fight happen

And I doubt it matters that much anyway. Stipe was coming off a loss & so is Jamahal & that doesn’t seem to bother Jon in fact losing might make him want to fight him even more lol.

Jon smokes Alex easily. I think Tom presents a much bigger challenge.

Jon Jones has the greatest GNP in the history of MMA

I dont get why anybody wants that fight.
It will be a take down and its pretty much over.
JBJ is not going to keep it standing vs Alex.

This fight dont really make any sense.

Poatan was getting man handled by Izzy and Jan. Jon would violate his ground game badly.

Tom is the fight

Jon and Fedor

Jones has a choice in solidifying his legacy- he can take the pereira fight which is arguably easier: he’s smaller and not much of a grappler. Safer fight for sure

Or

Fight Tom and ride off into the sunset. Beat one last young lion and retire while his names on top

 

[cmw43]

I'd rather just have Poatan Vs Ankalaev.

Poatan is giving up too much size to Jon and he's maybe a purple belt on the ground, Jones would absolutely have his way with him on the ground, I don't want to see it.

I'm a fan of Poatan and Aspinall.

I want to see Poatan vs Ankalaev, and Aspinall vs Jones.

After that, sure, let Poatan fight at HW.

Im sure Alex has ok ground game but with a guy like Jones you need very good wrestling. There is no way Alex has that

The latter would solidify his HW run IMO.

Right now its insignificant

Thank you for actually answering the question lol

Alex ank first then Jon and Tom.
If alex and Jon win then Jon and Alex.

See it ain't that hard to be Sean Shelby.

It depends on Alex and how confident he feels in the matchup. It might be beneficial to fight Jones instead of Ank. The payday will be much higher with Jones and if he loses then he would still have another title fight with Ank. Losing to Ank will kill off the Jones fight. A win over Jones will open the door for a future fight with Aspinall.

In the end it doesn't matter because the UFC will make whatever matchup that sells the most with whoever is around. If Jones packs up and retires; UFC will eventually make the Tom and Alex fight.

 

[Copper Burner]

Dana will not give Jones the chance to beat Alex and then retire. Alex is a big star right now.

 

[Benoitthegr8]

Let Alex enjoy his success at LHW

They could even make Poatan vs Jones if they both lost their title fights. That fight would sell regardless.
