Jones has NOTHING for Gane. How can he wiN??

Eye pokes, PEDs and gifted decisions have proven to be unstoppable so far...
 
Not a jon fan, but he has a variety of eye pokes, knee kicks, and picos at his disposal.

OK he kicks hard. But he's fighting against GANE.

A man who is 6'4. Jones will have to do head kicks to do ANY damage.

Thing is ... is Jones flexible? Can he even reach Gane's head???

This is exactly right. Gane is 6-5, Jones' headkick vs DC landed about 4 1/2 feet off the floor and DC ducked into it with all his might. Jones couldn't land a headkick on Gane or even come close.

This isn't the CATLIKE Jones of 205.

Jones looks PREGNANT now.

Furthemore, Jones fights very stationary and flat footed.

You know who has similar footwork like Jones?

Derrick Lewis.

Watch what happens when Lewis tries to walk down Gane.

It takes years for your new muscles to settle in. Right now Jones is just a puffy 205er with kicks and he's fighting a guy who has similar tools, is built heavier, can slip punches really well and probably avoid any spinning shit Jones throws.

Now the other factor is the wrestling. Can jones take down GANE?

Ngannu took down Gane, but according to Rogan, Francis was 270 for that fight while Gane was 247. (2)

According to Gane, Francis didn't have technical wrestling, but his strength was overwhelming.

Gane took minimal damage, and couldn't be held down DESPITE being 23 pounds lighter.

You think GSP or Khabib would give 23 pounds to an opponent and LIVE? HELL NO.

So does Jones have anything for Gane besides his reputation?

Wow Gane is terrible at wrestling.

Jon's going to plant his ass on the ground and rain down elbows.

Confirmed.

Jones hasn't fought for a while, a long time, and he hasn't looked good, i mean arguably speaking, since he popped for PED, so it's hard to say.

I do think it will be one sided one way or another. If Gane's grappling is as bad as it looked against Ngannou, then Jones probably finishes him on the ground. But if it was due to Gane not expecting Ngannou to wrestle and him being much bigger and stronger, and if Jone's performance decline coincided with PED test for a reason, which no one can say for sure, then I think Gane will make Jones look bad.

We just can't say for sure. But I think this fight will be one sided one way or another.

I lean towards Gane purely based on the fact that Jones arguably hasn't looked good since he popped for PEDs, and only arguably since he did finish GUS, but hard to say if it was Gus being past it, or Jones actually being good, and I don't believe in second primes in MMA, like Khabib said.

Gane's grappling did look dogshit though.

Ya you're right.

I have no clue what's going to happen.

Very intriguing matchup.
 
If he wins: he is the MMA GOAT
If he loses: he is old, out of prime, can crusher and should retire - Sherdog.
 
He can win via many more pictograms

Jones moving up could also give him more power. Just like any 240-250lb athlete anyone can score a KO.

Tell that to oleinik... Many big guys don't have that KO power. Picto won't either. KO power is basically tendons. You're born with it, or not.
 
I can't wait for this fight.
 
I don't think Jones takes this fight if he thought he couldn't win. He'd be giving up a basically undefeated legacy (yes, I know about the DQ loss & the controversy around PEDs). I think Jones believes even if he does end up struggling on the fight, that he will be able to get Gane on the ground. Francis is big & strong but he was gassed & tired & still took down Gane repeatedly & often. This is a fight that could go either way, I look forward to it.
 
Jones has high fight iq and he's the dirtiest fighter ever, so he can find ways to win.
Let's hope Gane destroys him, though.
