Ehxsur's Jones vs. Gane Mega Thread of Random Thoughts

As long as we stop the narrative that Gane has amazing TDD.
 
People out here putting their entire ego on the line begging that Jon loses
 
outwrestling a decorated d1 and olympic wrestler is a pretty good basis for the “narrative” you’re disputing here.
Funny that outgrappling DC was historically praised until now, and now that doesn't fit the narrative, so DC was not really all that good to begin with.

I don't have a clue how this fight is going to go, but the narrative shifts to solidify the hate boners are at an all time high right now.
 
The last guy he outgrappled was a 40 years old LHW Cormier 5 years ago

He did nuthin against Santos or Reyes who are LHW, Reyes could legit fight in Adesanya weightclass BTW

Couldnt take down a one legged Santos lol

Jones will try to get close to Gane to shot a takedown and will get clipped clean by this:

Your posts are consistently pretty erudite.

He fell off which is normal for wrestling, but when he was young he was not a good mma wrestler, he was one of the best all time…
i agree with you, when he was young he was a freak, he is not anymore, so it will not be that easy for 36 old Jones to take down a HW with bad takedown defense

Gane move fast and well, he have a good defense overall, move well on the cage and counter well, just lack of tk defense
 
- Jones is a workhorse, Gane barely train (lazy)

- Jones is a junkie/alcoholic (he admitted it himself), Gane have an healthy life

- Jones want to create the biggest legacy in mma, Gane said he just want money and maybe go to boxing soon

- Jones is a bad citizen husband and father, Gane is a good n husband and father

- Jones try so bad to be cool and nice to people, Gane is naturaly cool and nice to people

It's obvious that Gane will won that bout, the detached guy who dont care about mma and barely train will beat the "goat" who give it all and try so bad to have the recognition of everybody

Jones will become totaly crazy to lose to this guy, he will snap

At least loosing to Cormier would have been fair because Cormier is also an MMA OG and a workhorse, but loosing to a tourist like Gane? who discovered MMA by mistake and stick to it just because he is naturaly talented?

I cant wait to see Jones universe crumble

After seeing Jones's "dream team" of subpar HW sparring partners and that nonsense about Gane not being that technical, I'm sort of expecting him to get smoked.

Unless this is 4 dimensional chess and trolling, which I highly doubt.

The guy didn't look that great in his last few fights, took a massive layoff and doesn't seem to have a real team around him.

Seems like he's just cashing out.
Yeah, you can't but think that those are not adequate partners for training. Being old and and with that kind of layoff, I don't know...

Actually a lot of those reasons favor Jones to win and not Gane. If Gane wins it will most likely be due to physicality since skill wise Jones is technically more skilled. But all the variables that makes a fighter a "real fighter" - Jones has that and Gane lacks that. When the fight gets tough Gane is more likely to fold while Jones will not. The armbar from Vitor and Jones letting his arm hyperextend instead of tapping and Jones beating Chael after a compound fracture on his toe says it all. I don't think Gane has that kind of toughness and will in him.
 
Agree on most, except for Gane doesn't train. He's trolling there I feel.

Jon doesn't believe that either.
Could be true. Jones used to barely train and party more as well. Gane is an athlete more than a fighter. So he relies more on his athleticism to win. For that he just feels like he has to be in shape so he doesn't have to train as much since he thinks his skilled enough already. That type of thinking is usually what causes those fighters to lose though. Jones started taking his training seriously eventually to keep himself from eventually losing with that kind of mentality on his training and fighting.

People forget Gane is very new to fighting and training. He's not someone that's been doing this his whole life, he's only been doing it for a few years.

On paper, (in terms of how they match up) I favor Gane.

It being a 5 round fight though, when things get ugly, Jon has this grit about him.

Should be a very interesting fight.
 
When Gane says he doesn’t train, he meant he only train four days, actually five days a week. Five days a week, he’ll train two days a week. One of those days he will train two days of the week. So, four days a week he will be training.
 
Amazing that on March 4th, if everything goes to plan, we will find out who is the 2nd best HW MMA fighter in the word today. Thanks Dana.

And I KNOW it’s not a joke.

It’s true. Imo that should be the most concerning thing if you are a Gane fan. Not even his tdd, but is he a fight dog? Will he have what it takes if shit gets difficult? His camp looks soft as fuck.
 
One is considered a GOAT with GOAT level title defenses.
 
I favor gane as well , but never sleep on jones
