Jon Jones Will Be Dethroned in 2-3 Fights Guaranteed

[TheProphetAxel]

None of those guys will be able to handle jones. Gus has potential, but still needs a lot of work. Mousasi is good, but not good enough. Glover might be able to outbox him but Bones can definitely outgrapple him and has much more lethality in his strikes.

I doubt you even watched the fight.

I have watched it dozens of times. It is one of my favorites.

 

[n1xx0n]

Vague called. He wants his soul back.

 

[occy]

Based on what? Jones is pretty good - actually, he's the best (check the list of fighters he already beat).
You never know, anything can happen in a fight - but I see him keeping that belt for a while

 

[BlastbeatPete]

Only Cormier has a decent chance. Not any of the current LHW's.

Jones said he might go to HW in the end of this year. If that's the case, then most likely he'll lose one of his next 2-3 fights.

Jon Jones will be dethroned by either Gus, Glover or Mousasi. Guaranteed. :icon_twis

nope don't think so

i think Anderson Silva has better chance of beating him... so if that's within his next 2-3 fights.. he will be dethroned

Both Glover and Gus are as dominant as Jones compared to rest of the division in both career stats and vs the same opponents and even better than him in a number of key areas. A few select flashy moves and highlights isn't the same as an overall better game. He's good but not immortal and there's a couple of guys currently on his level working their way up......

 

[Madmick]

Grapplefucks Gus. Win via Submission.
Grapplefucks Glover. Win via TKO GnP.
Skullfucks Mousasi. Wins via anything he wants.

 

[MartyMcFry]

I really wanna see Gus fight him. I think he has the best chance of the guys in LHW.

 

[sedpir]

Master, Captain, Sensei, Dr, Professor, Seagal said that Jones will lose his next couple of fights.
How dare you not believe the greatest martial artist that has ever existed?
SHAME ON YOU!

 

[Son of Jamin]

I will root for Gus against him but I don't see him winning the fight unless he connect with a ko-punch (which I deem as highly unlikely).

Glover is impressive but I'm not really sold on his ability to dethrone Bones. I think he will be taken down and blasted with elbows.

Mousasi will have to stop the takedowns, which I don't think he will.

 

[knight of mma]

Next time you decide to make an assertion, how about providing some supporting evidence?

it's impossible to give evidence for the future at the moment It would be nice if he gave an explanation why he THINKS that will happen.

 

[sethcab]

all three lose via tko (hellbows)

But I think these stats show both take a lot more damage/strikes and Jones is a better grappler, that's what will shift the fight in his favor IMO. If it was a pure striking battle Gus would win.

 

[Jackonflame]

I'm thinking it's going to take a MW to take Jones out....

 

[Black Viking]

lol Gus and Glover will get owned in a way we haven't seen before

Mousasi and Cormier are the ones with a shot

With Cormier having the best shot (no pun), depending on his cut

 

[Brock Sapp]

I think this belongs here.

Nasssssty

Gus no

Mousasi...Keith Jardine outwrestled him so definetly not

Cormier has a punchers chance


Seriously the people choosing these guys are probably the same ones who picked vitor over jones lol

 

[redtracker03]

Cormier will smash him. Guaranteed.

This is my thought

 

[Hellscream]

That's a pretty vague prediction....

 

[wirerat123]

Sure Jones can lose, anyone can lose.

Jones is going to break all of the haters hearts. I'm a Jon Jones hater, but I have accepted the reality that despite me wanting to see him be the victim of an epic beatdown, he's going to continue to destroy people. Sure he might lose one or two here or there, but ultimately, he will hold that LHW strap until he can't cut the weight anymore, then he will move up and start humiliating the HWs until he gets himself in the position to take that strap too.
The butthurt around here will be HUGE, but I despite being a hater, have learned to accept the fact so I don't have to deal with the dissapointment.
