Pavlovich would be the first fighter with EQUAL reach that Jones would fight

[Davidjacksonjones]

He's gonna need a lot more than just reach and power advantage on his side
Jones is literally better everywhere else, better takedowns, better grappling, better elbows, better kicks, better fight IQ, more creative with his striking

 

[TheTickG]

Both have 84 inch reach.

Pav has been using his reach advantage in recent fights.

 

[Brit_Brawler]

Overeem tripped pavlovich and pounded him to oblivion. Make no mistake jon can do the same, maybe worse

 

[ComfortablyNumb55]

Don't worry, Jones will never fight him.

Too much risk.

Jones really looks normal when he fights a WELL ROUNDED guy his own size. Gustafsson, Reyes, OSP all made him look human. Smith was his size but didn't do a thing to him, but still lasted the distance. Pavlovich is that guy but I don't think he's well rounded enough. Jones batters him.

Miocic 5yrs ago is the man to beat him. Not in 2023 though.

 

[Zanmato]

How is he on his back? Reach doesn't stop a trip in the clinch. Doesn't sound like this fight will happen imo but would be interesting to see it play out

 

[Lawrence]

Don’t really feel Jones uses his reach much these days, he’s typically the one closing the distance

What the fuck are you talking about?

He has fought twice in four years.
