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

[Tweak896]

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.

DC had more power at HW. Jones ground and pound could have more weight behind it. We honestly have no idea. Also discounting the possibility of a pico cycle power up between the last 3 years.

DC was depleting himself off fried chicken to make LHW tho. Fatso was way more comfortable at HW. And didn't have to cheat the scale.

Fatsones will just be ole Picto with a 20lbs belly. From the pics, he looks like he's been doing that vodka and coke diet

GOAT Jones has a really high fight IQ. If there's anyone that can to adapt to any fighter, it's GOAT Jones.

If by adapt you mean more picograms.

He does have great fight iq. Arguably the best ever but taking gear when you already hit his reach and attributes, you aren't in the running of GOAT anymore. You forfeit that.


The guys a hw who has. Even bullying past prime legends and getting saved by corrupt judges. I think Gane flat lines him or highway robbery.

I can't wait to see usadas new manufactured excuses this time

 

[abject]

According to DC a man who fought at HW and LHW -- "Jones don't hit hard, he kicks hard." (1)

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 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?

Agreed. Your points are sound. But you will get flamed by the Jones fans. Jones since usada is a shadow of his former self. I have to admit, i'm impressed he's giving it a crack. People cite Jones' match against dc as a reference. People forget, Jones was enhanced for that fight and DC had a massive weight cut. In my opinion, Jones will struggle to take Gane down. And he will get exposed standing. His only chance is to fatigue Gane and somehow submit him. I cant wait to bet on Gane.

I think k corrupt judges plus usada manufacturing nonsense or something like Brock v hunt. I think Jones is done. I don't believe Jones wins without outside interference. I think Jones beats other hws but he pissed away three years.

I still expect this doesn't happen but I hope it does.

Jon has experience, fight iq and mental fortitude over Gane. Gane has size, speed and youth. Strength is up in the air and both lack ko power. It will be very interesting.

Very good thread my friend

 

[FIghtxIQ]

ever heard of the power of prayer ? Still undefeated.

That's only if the God(s) favor you lol.

 

[theleerygoose]

So Jones knocked out DC who was HW champion with a kick and punches and your logic is that he won’t have enough power at HW?

 

[r-harper-1]

Stopped reading when “ Jones and Lewis have the same footwork “

 

[r-harper-1]

I feel like Jones will be destroyed…..he looked old in his last few LHW fights …. Gane gonna tko him

 

[checktheknuckles]

It takes years for your new muscles to settle in.

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

I remember the last time a former 205 lb champ returned to fight for the heavyweight title…

 

[checktheknuckles]

Is the UFC gonna allow Jon to juice up in between rounds?

 

[turbotime]

This is a bad matchup for Jones. UD loss for my money.

Yo I feel bad replying to something so stupid especially seeing your so emotional about.

Jones beating Shogun at 23 weighing 217lbs but he WAS a HW?

Past prime legends? Like 29 year old Shogun. 1 loss UFC champs like Lyoto and Rashad. Ignoring the future HW and LHW champs.

USADA is part of some conspiracy (ignoring everyone is taking)

Phew, you going to be IN PAIN if he becomes new UFC HW champion.
