Do you think he'd be able to recover like DC did?
 
Hard to say.

Jones has shown a pretty damn good chin, and also the ability to move his head quickly after getting tagged.
 
We will probably never find out, fuck this shit.
 
Who cares? Jonathan the crying cheater is yesterdays news.
 
Absolutely think so. He's shown nothing but a granite chin so far. Nose of glass though.
 
I think it would have dropped him at the very least. Rumble hits like a freaking Mack truck. It's certainly debatable whether it would have put him out cold but I think it would have definitely dropped him. Cormier has an excellent chin himself. Almost any other light-heavyweight would have been on the way to being finished at the very least from that Gustafsson knee, if not put out cold completely. Cormier went on to win the fight.. Great chin and the Rumble shot still dropped him hard.
 
He would have eaten it just like every shot he's eaten in his career. He would ragdoll and choke out crumble.
 
Something i've noticed in MMA is that the hard bombs like that one can fail to knock the guy out. Is that kind of punch you keep asking yourself how the guy took it. Could drop him i think, but Jones manages distance very well with his arms and fingers, AJ would have a harder time finding that bomb as he did with DC :)
 
I don't think he could take rumbles shots. Not saying he would lose, to bad we will never know

Dc is use to getting hit by hws.

I agree that it's much less likely that he even lands it on Jones but was just wondering if he did, could he take it.
 
Only USADA and Hamill's head can finish Jones, so yes.
