Gane is born and built to beat Jon Jones

I get Jones isn’t a very likeable guy on Sherdog, but c’mon now… What a ridiculous thread.


Gane made Francis Ngannou look like the second coming of Dan Gable… Do you imagine what Jones would do?

A lot less.

Jon Jones would get murdered by Ngannou ... so... your comparison is absolutely meaningless.

Plus styles make fights. Your post is essentially MMA math. Be better next time.

So, at HW Jon won't wrestle anymore?

Jones' mma wrestling is deceiving. He prospered when he had the strength and leverage advantage over smaller guys, even a diminished DC, but at HW, he doesn't have those advantages anymore and you can see that even a big strong LHW can neutralize it. A relatively unskilled grappler like Gane could probably escape/shut him down like Reyes did. Ngannou would be a real chore and Blaydes? Forget about it. Then there's the issue of his chronic toe injury from the Chael fight, which seems decades ago, and the observation that he's never tried to employ a wrestling-heavy game since that. I don't see his wrestling taking him very far in the heavyweight division, and since that's all he really has there, it's probably why we have never seen him in the heavyweight division.

fook miocic he is done, give Jones to Gane, he will do to Jones what Jones did to LHW during ten years but in splendid fashion

Jones has been retired for years and fled after Santos and Retes exposed him.

If not crushing seniors while popping on peco grams, fighting mallets despite being a HW, he gets bullied.

Gabe bullies and embarrasses him inside 1.

We don't know exactly what they weighed at fight time but assuming that DC was a little heavier, you have to factor in the weight loss it took to make HW, even before the big weight cut. If he's doing that naturally, and we have no reason to think that he didn't, he was bound to lose substantial muscle along with the fat. He was certainly diminished against Jones at LHW, and I don't think that reflects in any way what the fight would have looked like at HW.

He couldn't bully Santos nor Reyes. He'll Gus won their fight and he got saved by judges.

Gane, Francis, and he'll even Tai put away Jones.

He got taken down by a guy with no grappling
Pico Jones took DC Down

Worth noting that Jones took DC down off a leg catch in the first, and then twice in the 4th, when DC was gassing due to fighting a guy with goat level strength and endurance. Also worth noting that Jones hasn't exactly been a TD machine since those early pre-USADA days.

You mean PED test failing Jones? Does that Jones still exist?

How many takedowns did he land on Reyes, Santos with one leg?

Not many.
