Yes there was. It's called intelligence.

I don't see how you can say Jones wasn't winning the standup. The only strike Gane threw was to the nuts. Jones threw legal strikes and was the one moving forward.Yes he was the aggressor, but he definitely wasn’t winning. It was a feeling out process. Gane thought it would be a stand up battle, but he was dead wrong.
Are they both still whining about their losses till this day? Or is it just you?Reyes and Gus disagree
He signed an 8 fight deal brother where have you been
The UFC is going down. Many people have the same feelings I’m not watching anymore so just be aware
lmao i remember you saying it was a ridiculously easy bet and there was $$$$ to be made here. Hopefully you didn’t put lots of cash on Gane.I’ll tell you the truth. Gane would have KO’d Jones no problem had it been a stand up battle. But Jones knew that so he took him down ASAP. I had no idea Gane’s ground game was that bad. I was completely shocked at how little skill he has with grappling and submission defense.
There are normal fights and fixed fights. But since there are fixed fights the party is over. Karma will get all those involved. You might not see it because it could be at a personal level. If you live long enough you’ll see everyone pays good or bad. Don’t wait for it but it will eventually take place. Just quick question, since when Gane or Jon never threw any elbows? Both fighters didn’t have a scratch and it’s the start of the fight and Gane trained very hard with Dagestani wrestlers so if he was tired makes sense, but the guy is super athletic and didn’t even attempt to grab the arms or anything. Is he made out of cardboard? Have you ever been in a regular fight? This guy is a pro fighter and huge and strong. Watch Conor vs Khabib, Conor gave Khabib 100 elbows before he reached the fence because he was fresh. Gane just acted well and got millions without getting hurt. Shut your little rants mouthRIP UFC, they are truly doomed now you and your 3 butthurt buddies are no longer watching.
Dude watch Khabib vs Conor to see what a real fight looks like and then watch how Gane just extend his punches so Jon can take his back and no resistance from Gane or elbows from both guys. No scratches or damage to both guys! Both fresh and yet Gane didn’t even try to grab or elbow Jon’s head next his elbow. If you can’t see this then I don’t know what to say. These are pro fightersI thought Gane would win a hard fought decision.
It's almost like Gane was more threatened by Jones than McGregor was by Khabib, or somethingDude watch Khabib vs Conor to see what a real fight looks like and then watch how Gane just extend his punches so Jon can take his back and no resistance from Gane or elbows from both guys.

It took me until the Ngannou sentence to know if you were delusional or joking.You are delusional if you think there are normal fights. News flash: all UFC fights are 100% fixed in the Zuffa era, Dana models himself after Vince and the UFC follows pro wrassling script from soup to nuts. Of course the Gane fight is fake, but it goes far beyond that: every single one of Jones wins are scripted. Those hellbows, failed USADA tests, police arrests...it's all fake. Ngannou never actually KO'd anybody, it's completely faked, if you playback the Overeem KO you can see the fist never actually connected and Overeem was just acting. Now you've brought this to light the UFC is about to go bankrupt and Dana and the Fertittas will end up serving life sentences.

It's almost like there was a far bigger skill disparity between Jones x Gane than between Khabib x McGregor
You're making Khabib look bad, not Jones
Real adults can admit when they're wrong
If you ever become one you'll understand
my brother in Christ, I thought literally this exact same thing. The mma gods are fickle beasts.Jones:
3 years inactive
Closer to 40 than 30
Been hugely successful, maybe not as hungry
Many of his opponents were easily discouraged
4/6 favourite, ATG, "undefeated" = more pressure
HW debut, has to bulk up (will his body adjust well?)
Career 205 pounder, made a career bullying midgets
DQ'd against Hamill, DQ-worthy offence against Smith
Every fighter/coach/ref has been watching him for ages
Failed to stop his last 3 opponents, no finish/KD since 2018
Lots of wear; pro debut in 2008, 15 title fights with 8 decisions
History of problems with the law, including in the last few years
History of problems with alcohol, sex and drugs, including in the last few years
Jones' last two performances have been close decisions (Santos, Reyes) and 6'4 strikers have given him his toughest and most competitive fights (Gustafsson 1, Reyes).
Gane is an active, prime, determined, disciplined, athletic, 247 lbs natural heavyweight, 6'4 with an 81 inch reach and is possibly the most skilled striker Jones will ever face, with experience in a very close 5 round distance fight in his championship debut against a much more dangerous opponent in Ngannou (who Jones probably wouldn’t ever fight).
"But wrestling"
Ngannou (who also took Stipe down) was able to take Gane down primarily because of his size and strength advantages and because Gane had to worry first and foremost about Ngannou's power, factors that won't be present at all against Jones. Gane will have also improved his wrestling in the 14 month gap. Jones scored just 2 TD's in 10 attempts with 101 seconds of control in 50 minutes against former welterweight Santos and greenhorn Reyes, men who are easier to grapple against than Gane and who’ve gone 1-7 post-Jones.
I forget what video. But, I saw it suggested that it was intended for Connor to be the backup fighter in NY, instead of Big Al. But, the pesky cops messed up the script."Alistair Overeem" - the name alone gives it away, that's clearly a fake stage name made to sound really badass. The dude is just a jacked Dutch stuntsman who's great at doing controlled falls, that's why they put a large number of KOs in his script. @true_fan is on the right track but he's still missing a lot of crucial facts like Khabib vs Conor being an entirely scripted affair.
You're in denial.So you trust the UFC blindly? Okay let’s say Gane panicked so when you panic you naturally try to run away from danger and ferociously so. Did you see anything that resembles that? I did some mma and wrestling and when you get in trouble the adrenaline kicks in and you fight to survive. Did you see any resistance at all? No there’s your answer. No scratches or marks on both fighters and since when Jon leaves his fighters without damaging them somehow. Keep making the UFC rich I’m not falling for their bs acting
