Gane is born and built to beat Jon Jones

Problem is Jones only wants Stipe... He likes the matchup.

He probably wouldn't even fight Lewis of Tuivasa.

Which is odd as Stipe seems like the WORSE matchup for Jones, as of the top HW's he' the only one he likely can't out grapple.
 
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.


It’s not MMAth, it’s basic martial arts comprehension.

Gane showed serious vulnerability with his grappling defense, where Jones has been thriving for decades.

On the mat he showed zero scrambling ability and minute guard retention skills.

Did I also mention that Ngannou only had one leg when he put a grappling seminar on Gane? Thought so.
 
He got taken down by a guy with no grappling
Pico Jones took DC Down
Do the math

You think a takedown from the Predator is easy to defend?

You think DC is the same at 205?

You think Jones ist still performing the same way?

You don't remember Jones explicitly stating he doesn't wanna fight DC at hw.

C mom man look his last 2 fights.

Funny how he destroyed great strikers without wrestling
His threat of wrestling is what makes his striking effective. If had no wrestling to fall back one theres plenty of fighters that would embarrass him standing
 
The only reason Jones is fighting Stipe, is because Stipe is 40 years old and Jon is pretty sure that Stipe is too old to be a threat.
It's either that or he thinks Stipe will never fight again and he's playing a game of calling out someone who he will never have to fight in order to stay relevant. In any case, Stipe is the only hw he has ever specifically called out.
 
jon jones can't hold down anyone over 6'3, his "defense" is also poor against anyone with decent reach.
in the standup he would get styled on by gane, maybe even ko'ed

It should be. Seriously! I know he is big and strong, but takedowns aren't his speciality at all.
Yes, aware of the fact he trained with Usman.

Nope, he is better. Still, he was great at LHW too.

Probably not the same way, but I look at it this way.
He is obsessed about winning and is smart enough to know when an opponent is better than him.
He won't go at HW knowing he isn't fully prepared.

He lost his last 2 fights, imo.
The Reyes fight was a clearly 3-2 for Reyes.

PS: I hope you are right and Gane beats him, btw
I would root for Gane
But seeing his ground game vs Ngannou, I have my doubts

For decades? Do you know what a decade is?

Yeah people keep thinking their fav fighters are always at their best form. People still think GSP could come back and beat Leon or Usman. Maybe a younger version could but the guy had one fight in 10 yrs? Cmon

Jones lost 3 rounds to fuckin reyes and gave away his belt after that. He didnt do that for no reason. He didnt avoid fighting DC for the HW belt for no reason,he said it himself. He's lookin to cash out.
 
Everytime a fighter wins a fight they're the next guy to beat Jones, literally.

Check the archives it's insane how many fighters were suppose to beat Jones after they won a fight
 
thats the most scary thing about gane

99% of fighters who have gane experience are still in cage warrior or even below

he is a freak
What I like to point out is Gane took 4 years of training to get to a titleshot, along with Francis (who later acquired the title only a few years later). These are both guys who never did any combat sport before, in their late 20s.

These are both guys who had the same coach too, so that man is doing something right.
 
Also people with great footwork always bothered Jon, like Gus in the first fight, Santos and Reyes, with Reyes and Gus they slowed down in the middle rounds (Gus in the second fight stayed on the centreline probably to save his cardio) which allowed Jon to win those rounds, so it’s possible Gane will slow down and it will allow Jones to score TDs and strikes. Santos…tore all his knees which wasn’t a good look.

So I call 3 rounds to Gane, with Jon winning the fight halfway through the third round, leading to a controversial decision, then in a rematch Gane doesn’t use his footwork so he doesn’t gas as hard leading to a clear Jones win.
 
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
Agreed. Jones would get schooled vs gane. ie no hope of taking him down and pieced up on the feet. Jones needs the stipe fight imo. This is what must happen. Anyone who wins this is a sherdog goat so worth the risk.
