If Gus eventually gets the rematch with Jones, could he pull off a repeat or even better performance? Or did he fight the fight of his life the first time, ala Sonnen/Anderson I?
To me it kind of has that Sonnen feel to it. There is the difference however of Gus having a much higher ability to finish Jones than Sonnen had against Silva. However, Gus typically only finishes guys who come in flailing wildly.
I thought Gus won to be honest. Watching the rematch, I thought, ok, Gus won but did not do enough and the 4th round made him look bad.
What I learned, is Gus clearly has better hands. So, I think Gus wins a boxing rematch. But, Jones kicks looked better. Just to fast with his kicks. Overall, I would say, Gus will be stronger in a rematch. However, if Jones loses to DC....then, all this doesn't matter.
I rather focus on this fight, DC vs Jones....see what happens. I think, Jones does well against DC type fighters. However, I see DC winning.
This fight is interesting. I think DC will win. I just see DC getting in range on Jones. If not, Then, who knows? ...I see DC doing what we thought Rampage and Glover should do but could not implement becauase they lacked that close range. However, DC....IMO, will close the gap...and do it well, to the point, I question who can win. I just wonder if Jones will be able to counter DC's movements.
So,....um yeah, Gus can win...but, DC is a serious threat...I do not think Gus wins against DC....but against Jones yes...I think DC is Gus achilles heel. ...while DC is Jones Achilles heel. I wish Gus got the rematch but...it is what it is....DC will make it as champ IMO.
