Jones hasn't finished a non-MW in 3 years

That's certainly one way of looking at it, however I don't think Silva in his prime would be able to embarrass Machida, Evans, Cormier, Shogun, or Gus. Heck he had a rough go against Sonnen in their first bout and Jones ragdolled Sonnen. It's all in the matchups. Silva is a badass. Jones is too.

Jon Jones wasn't 37 when ragdolled Sonnen.

You're acting like Silva was in his absolute prime.

Bones lacks KO power.

In his hands he doesn't, I hate Jones and I can admit he's got KO power in those elbows and knees.

Silva in his 20s had two legit losses to Welterweights that Jones most certainly would have defeated. You could argue Silva's prime was in his early to mid 30s.
