Pavlovich is not a more interesting match up than Stipe

Yeah I agree. Stipe will be 41 when he fights Jones? Well, good. Sergei is 30.

So stipe has over 10 years of experience and training over Sergei.

Stipe would give Sergei a wedgie, or as we call it in da hood, calzon chino.
 
Is there actually a fight booked at the moment between Jones and Stipe? I'd love to see either fight.
 
Doesn't matter who Jones fights, people will say it was hand picked by him to be an easy fight.
Stipe? Too old. Pav? No ground. Aspinal? Too green. Blaydes? Not that good.

And they will always talk about how he ducked the real contender (Ngannou).

And if he had fought Ngannou and won, the same people will talk about how he hand picked Francis because of his lack of takedown or whatever.

Haters gonna hate.
 
Stipe doesn't even deserve a shot at the title

I doubt he beats several top HWs at this point. He should fight Gane and see where he's at.
 
Honestly I get the idea that Pavlovich is a bigger threat, but I feel that Stipe has less time left in his career, so if the fight with he and Bones isn't made now, the opportunity will be missed. Sergei likely has plenty of time to get a title shot.

Oh man stipe would smash that guy. I admit that Pavlovich is probably the tougher fight for stipe than Gane.

I'd like to see it. Beat Gane and I'm down for him getting a titleshot with that win.
 
I think this fight is already negotiated and just in await to be announced. If not, Stipe is the one to blame unfortunately, but I think it's settled. I really want to see this fight.
 
Can’t wrestle. Not as technical of a striker. Overeem fight. He’d get Gane’d. Or worse. End of.

Not end.
Pav is a more interesting matchup than Stipe.

Jones can easily decision cautious Stipe for the forever crown.
Pav is hot. Momentum. Aggressive. Chin.

More interesting.

Stipe isn’t a cautious fighter lol he’s a finisher through and through, Pavlovich is over aggressive if anything.
 
Pavlovich is just the new big hope of JBJ haters as many of them have already openly stated.

Agreed.

Pavlovich "has" / "is" none of these these things.

He already went 5 rounds hard in Russia in a title fight and didn’t get tired
He took a different approach than the one he's been taking in the UFC.

Granted I doubt he'll try to bumrush Jones simply because he's not going to be fighting a regular UFC HW with poor defense.
