I don't think it was rust

[Dejustice]

JJ looked much more muscular in this fight. Everyone saying he looked great but I actually thought he came in with too much muscle mass. He looked slower and his explosiveness wasn't there. He needs to either move up, or cut that lifting shit out and so back to what he was doing.

Whatever that means. Dc wins the next one and Jones wins the rubber match.

Have to disagree. Even when you're the best, you only get better by applying your craft 100% in real combat. If you lose 400+ days in the ring, you're going to lose a step, even on solid guy on 3 weeks notice.

Lets wait for the next fight.

It was rust.

Jones was off.

I can't stand Jones, but he was not his normal self tonight.

He did well he wasn't firing on all engines that's for sure and it seems to have harder times vs fighters with similar 'specs' (height, reach, athleticism, younger and not that shell-shook after a long career) as him.

Also ring rust was proven to be a factor time and time again.
