Jon Jones wouldn't have the balls to fight Stipe.

[Megalodon]

Or any other HW champ for that matter.

 

[Harmonica]

A true champion doesn't back down from a challenge.

Enough said.

 

[sirmorbach]

Daniel Cormier is a fucking BOSS.

 

[bolly32]

WAR DC!!!

 

[Sapp]

Jones was too busy holding out for "the right match up".

War DC!

 

[Hauptstoss]

Jones would break down Stipe like he does everyone else.

 

[SaintSoldier]

He wanted to fight Brock, though. I'd still like to see that.

5-3 retired old Lesnar??? okey..

 

[Deleted member 501827]

bro, he wouldnt even fight Chael on short notice.....CHAEL.The #2 middleweight coming off a tko loss was too risky for him.

 

[Megalodon]

Jones would break down Stipe like he does everyone else.

Jones struggled with Alex's reach, size and boxing, when you add legit HW KO power to that it would be a very bad fight for Jones.

 

[IsNormal]

I think he would.
After seeing him bulk up with all those weights and roids I actually think he was aiming for HW.

Sure, maybe he was campaigning for "the right matchup" first and foremost (moneyfight with Lesnar) but I think he would dare to fight Stipe sooner or later if he had cleaned out LHW.

But who knows if fans would ever agree he had fully cleaned out LHW, or if we would've wanted him to stick around forever.
I mean, Volkan flew in from nowhere and became a contender in 6 months.

If Jones had not gotten suspended, he would've probably been expected to fight Volkan.
Gus 2 would be popular as well.
And even though a DC 3 rematch seems unnecessary, some fans would probably say DC should earn another try just cause he's retiring.
Or if Jones had been popped and got a light suspension they'd say "Let's see if Jones without PEDs can handle DC"

 

[FedorRoks]

Stipe is Gus on steroids. It's not a fight Jones should want to take. He'd get annihilated.

 

[sirmorbach]

He wanted to fight Brock, though. I'd still like to see that.

Juiceheads recognise juiceheads.

Seriously though, that's the difference. While one calls out a retired pro-wrestler with a record of 5-3, the other steps up and fights the real baddest man on the planet.

 

[DetachedOrchid]

He won't even fight DC without steroids.

 

[Toco]

he was always fucking SCARED to fight at HW. props to DC, doesn't run from challenges

 

[Paynebringer]

Odd? I distinctly remembering him calling out Brock Lesnar after he made DC cry so going against Stipe wouldn't be a leap...

 

[peytonlucy]

Or any other HW champ for that matter.

He could be like GSP and just wait for a weak champion, with one eye.

 

[Sapp]

Odd? I distinctly remembering him calling out Brock Lesnar after he made DC cry so going against Stipe wouldn't be a leap...

Given that the specifically said he didn't want to fight the HW champ, it would indeed be a leap.

 

[dmwalking]

Or any other HW champ for that matter.

Facts. Jones hasn't had the balls to fight at HW ever. D.C. Ready to square up!

 

[dmwalking]

Odd? I distinctly remembering him calling out Brock Lesnar after he made DC cry so going against Stipe wouldn't be a leap...

He called out a cardio deprived HW with no stand up. Lol. He didn't call out the champ. Jones is only ped goat at lhw. He ain't ready for hw. He's scurred
