Final call - Jones vs Gane predictions?

[Starman]

Gane wins by stoppage or Jones wins yet another controversial UD.

 

[Slapjit]

Jones by decision is my choice, possibly a finish.

 

[don't ask]

I predict Jon will weigh in at slightly above his LHW walkaround weight and sometime soon after this fight will go back down to LHW. This entire thing will have been a way to resurrect buzz about him so he can be the UFC's star again.

 

[CasualBot]

That's the thing - do Gane and his team know (realize) that Jon will do anything to get a win; especially if he starts to lose (we'll get to see the old "accidental" foul that changes the course of the fight).

Truth by told,
got a $100 bet on the eye poke... instead of the fight.
Nobody seems to care about the fight, honestly.

The eye poke, we cannot seem to shut up about.

We all just flat pooled $100 each & picked a percentage.

Everyone picked similar "number of pokes",
so it became Per Min/Round
and averaged based on length (minutes) of the fight.
Rules/Payout ratio shifts as things progress.

None have bet "zero".

There's a side bet for fouls in general.

I predict Jon will weigh in at slightly above his LHW walkaround weight.

Jones has clearly put on muscle and isn't trim. He hasn't weighed in yet, but I'm guessing 255 or so.

Well, we'll find out pretty quickly if I'm wrong in the first part of my prediction.

Jones by UD

Possible tko from gnp

Well, it's 248. I'm up for calling that a draw if you are.

lol That sounds good to me. It's nice to have a reasonable conversation on here.

 

[knock_you_out]

Jones will finish Gane.

 

[ryun253]

Gane with a TKO. Jon is very hittable

 

[Sunnyvale TP]

Gane, TKO, Round 3

Ditto.

myth busted.

 

[OldFashion]

Gane unless Jones somehow has gotten drastically fresher than he was 3 years ago. Prime Jones wins but Jones hasn't been prime Jones for like 8 years

myth busted.

I was pretty close. He weighed in 11lbs above his heaviest walk around weight, according to him. The rest of it could still happen.

He was best when he was skinny fat and not lifting weights. Adding that additional muscle was terrible

 

[IBeLurkin]

Jones by UD, possible late stoppage.

 

[kibz]

Jones

either round 3-4 TKO or decision.

Strategy: restrict/reduce Ganes movement, then wrestle.

1. Spam oblique kicks to Ganes knees
2. Avoid, avoid, avoid
3. Spam more oblique kicks to the knees
4. Avoid, avoid, avoid
5. Try to clinch to make Gane work/tired
6. Spam more oblique kicks and wait for movement to become compromised
7. Hit the gas. Spam takedowns
8. Top pressure, elbow GNP

The end


In the off chance Jones losses, Gane might catch Jones with a knee to the head KO.

 

[Dr Guildo]

Don't think it will go to decision.

It might end with an ugly oblique kick or eye gouge by Jones, that chance is there because he will be desperate to win i think. (I don't hate Jones, i know how substances or drinks can make you do idiotic things, but Jon Jones has showned this behaviour before in fights with eye pokes for example.)

I also think it could end in like round 3 by stand-up destruction by Gane. Jon Jones didn't look that good in his last fights and Gane might have gained motivation from the loss to Ngannou that was very even and he is young and on the rise.

-

70 - 30, Gane - Jones, something like that i think.
