Jones/Sonnen....Has There Ever Been

Chael has the style the beat anyone.

Mendes vs Mckenzie is the worst in recent memory.

Glover vs Maldonaldo aswell.
 
AS v most
GSP v wrestlers with heavy hands
Skyscraper v JDS

But must agree this is probably worse than Silva v Bonnar. Chael might be able to get him down but even if he does then what? He might get subbed or reversed.

The only thing I like about the fight is that Chael will have JBJ running backwards for most of the fight (lol maybe 1 round).

Except the 10~ people that have beat him.

Also, he just doesn't matchup well with Jones. I doubt he gets close enough to shoot, and if he does, he's just going to get wrapped up and tripped.

This fight will look very similar to Jones v Evans with Jones fighting long and keeping distance.
 
Strange fight to make. Has anyone asked for this fight?
 
Has there ever been a fight like this where one guy clearly doesn't have a hope of winning?

This isn't a Chael bashing thread either, i'm actually a fan of his. Just a fan with common sense. He can't KO or TKO Jones, he can't submit Jones and he can't dominate him for 5 rounds.

Can you name any other fights where one guy had literally no possible way to win?

Look no further than GSP vs Diaz. :rolleyes:

Chael will at least to try to use his wrestling, Shad didn't even try.
 
Its just a gimme fight for Jones to pad his record.

If you by some chance Chael "wins" there will be an immediate rematch
and I wont purchase that PPV either.

GSP vs Fitch comes to mind
 
Jon Jones is a -800 favorite
Chad Mendez is a -1600 favorite tonight.
So the answer is yes.

and yet we still had people picking McKenzie by "McKenzietine" lol

My pick is Shogun vs Machida 1 and 2. In the first fight Shogun had ZERO chance and in the second one Machida was going to make "adjustments" and therefore couldn't be beaten. :icon_chee
 
The most obvious one I can think of would be Serra vs GSP. Serra clearly had zero chance of winning and was what 10 to 1 or worse underdog?

Its MMA, anything can and does happen.

This. I hate these threads. I'm a fan of both of these fighters. Do I think Jones will win? Yes. Is it just as likely that Chael will win? Yes.
 
JDS v Mir

Everybody knew what would happen. Most pointless match making ever.
