Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Humbaba the Terrible]

Powerlifting Jones has never yet failed to break an opponent's bones.

Jackson: Let’s find that waterfall

And like that, "Waterfall" Jones is born.

 

[trident]

His mobility is not enhanced from power lifting. Jackson knows.

 

[E Undead]

Maybe Horsemeat Jones works better?

 

[Air Lats]

Cool, thanks, TS!

He needs to get back to what got him to the dance in the first place, Hookers, 8ball, and a few ounces if MJ.

 

[DoopidyDawesome]

I think his movement looked pretty horrible and his quickness was lacking compared to normal but I chalked it up to ring rust. Really though, powerlifting is not something that will help Jones in the least and I hope he stops before his flexibility suffers any further.

Hahahahaha it's funny but it might actually not be too far from the truth. He may need the occasional recreational drug use to relieve stress and take his mind off the fact that his job is to avoid being killed in a cage for the entertainment of millions.

And maybe his "lazy" approach (not training in the off season) kept him fresh and from burning out psychologically from the sport.

I'm not saying this based off his performance against OSP, Ive heard other posters bring this point up in the past.

[Jermei]

So many people here said the power lifting would cause Jon to gas. Sherdogs armchair power lifters know what's up.

AFTER THE BELL

GREG JACKSON: "Go get some fans Jon"

Fighting is not a body building competition .My neighbours a beast built like a brick shit house , spent a couple of years intimidating me , kicked my dog because we made too much noise in the garden . I jumped over the fence and slapped the fuck out of him .Shame it wasn't a bench press competition he would have won .

I thought the powerlifting was a great indicator of an increased level of dedication from him, but I had worried from the get go about his cardio. Hopefully now that he's back in the swing of things he knocks that off and sticks to what he was doing before.

Your neighbor was your mom and your dog was your penis. Every other detail I believe.

Some athletic endeavors do not go well together.

Jackson: Believe, Jon Jones, believe!


Voice: Are you going to become a traveling preacher? You sound like it.


Jackson: Oh, I think you would do it better.


Voice: We could do it together, make a lot of money. He’s going to start a new religion.


Jackson: All right, you tell me, and then we’ll preach it.

lol at this exchange
