DC puts Jones in his place, again

Funny how much shit you can continue to talk about a guy that beat your ass twice (even if one was stricken) and used your own tools against you to do it one of those times.

If you listen to the video, DC gives Jon full credit for how great he is in the cage. DC said that when Jones beat him in Anaheim, that was the best version of DC ever. Said he'd never trained better, been more healthy, etc. And he still wasn't good enough to beat Jon. Taken in its totality, the video doesn't at all come across as bitter. I have mixed feelings about DC sometimes, but this truly comes across as just an ex fighter now paid to give his opinions that's doing just that. And there's a lot he's spot on with, too.

That's how I understood it. At first I also thought that he might let it go, but I still looked at it. And was pretty surprised to hear that from DC.

I'll be honest I'm as tired of DC and Jones as i am Sherdog and Jones. Redundancy is one of my major triggers though.

That's fair. But (for his faults), DC is pretty honest in that he just wasn't good enough to beat Jones.

One of the problems is that (like here on Sherdog), Jones is a topic that's gonna get clicks. DC needs clicks. He's giving his honest opinion, but he has to talk about shit people care about. If he did a 15 minute video breaking down the upcoming Josh Van/Brandon Royval fight, not all that many people are tuning in.

So a fighter turned analyst isn't allowed to do his job and analyze the career of a fighter he lost to? That makes no sense.

Why would DJ be allowed to analyze Jones career but not Cormier? I honestly think Daniel Cormier has been pretty fair to Jon Jones, and given him far more "benefit of the doubt" than Jon Jones deserves.

Where did I say he was not allowed to do it? I just said it's funny how he goes about it given their history.

Your response barely even makes sense when compared to what you replied to, though.

Now, go back and re-read my EXACT words as written, and tell me why DJ isn't even a near close comparison to DC in the context of my exact words. What's a major difference in DC and DJ as it relates to Jon Jones and the context of what i actually said?

Seeing as how you lack reading comprehension, let me translate.

You're calling what he's doing "talking shit" and I'm explaining to you that it's analysis, not talking shit.
