Jon Jones vs Ovince Saint Preux

[shinjean]

Lookin at the fighters training videos it's obvious to say that Jones is in better shape than ever and Saint Preux lookin kinda slow. But as we remember conor mcgregor vs nate diaz fight, we can say same thing about conor (brutal training) and nate (not giving a f*ck) and we all know what's happened next. So, Jon Jones vs Ovince Saint Preux. Who takes it?

Jones.

 

[Conor McTouchbutt]

Jones in the 1st via the return of the Hellbows

 

[Zarra]

This fight is nothing like Conor/Nate
Nate was just better fighter. OSP is not better than Jones.

 

[wchew20]

Jones gets it done early so he can still headline 200.

This.

Jones DQ for elbows, Referee Mazzagati

 

[$uicideboy$]

no one should pick OSP
with that said, OSP is legit and the margin of error is very small

 

[kahymo]

OSP for the upset,
OSP is probably the coolest LHW right now,
he only need one left hand to connect, and Jones does not do good with guys his size

 

[Spycho]

Jones will probably toy with him in the 1st round and finish him by sub in the 2nd or 3rd round.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Jones, but it will be a good fight for the first 7-8minutes.

After Jones will bring the pain on OSP.
Finish before the 5th round.

I just hope OPS goes for it.. Got nothing to lose, I don't wanna see him hesitating on the feet. Youre gonna get out wrestled, atleast throw some bombs at him

This always makes me laugh. "Jones does not do good with guys his size." Bones has one close fight in his career -against someone who happens to be tall -- a fight he still won -- and suddenly there's a narrative.

Side note, OSP has a good reach but he isn't any "bigger" as measured by height than others in the LHW division. He's no taller than 6'1" or 6'2".


As far as the fight goes - I don't think this is one where Jones will dedicate too much time to trying to win at OSP's game (standing). I think he does for a bit but quickly goes for the takedown and hellbows to finish. Jones wants on the 200 or MSG card and he isn't going to risk a medical suspension due to any injury.

Jones should win easily. But it's mma and if you enter the cage you have a chance.

I'm tempted to put some coin on OSP. Just because if he can land one good shot it may be enough.

I repeat though. Jon should win easily.

 

[CrimsonFan]

Jones has had 3 close fights.

 

[BlastoiseDad]

It will be great to see Jones finish someone spectacularly again.

 

[Goh]

Jones has had 3 close fights.

Which 3? I only remember 1 being close and a few being competitive.

 

[ThinkBig500]

Jones has had 3 close fights.

Which ones were those? Gus was close. Cormier and Glover not as much.

 

[Tranaas]

Sonnen and Vitor, dude. Close af.
