Didnt look that Alpha when he fought Gus.
It was a close fight but he never looked for a way out when the going got tough. He dug deep and fought his best in the late rounds.

See the difference is at least Jones doesn't talk shit like ronda and Conor do. He doesn't exalt himself and put down his opponents.
The only one he puts Down is DC because DC instigates it.

Nah it was pretty brutal. I cant find the gifs for some damn reason even though they are all over the site.
The combo that rocked him and hurt him.
The knee against the cage. I mean these were clean blows.
The same combo landed again then made him shoot for a TD.
The mounted flush bomb to the jaw that made McGregor turn around like a bitch to avoid being punched. I mean that punch right there was the cleanest an hardest hes ever been hit he wanted NO MORE of that.
Then the punch while he was on his back before locking in the choke.
The double panic tap.
I watched the fight several times and these shots are pretty nasty. Like Nate was really trying to kill the guy.

I don't think Conor was either tbh. He just ran into someone who had an iron chin, great boxing, and a nasty bjj game. Shitting on Conor is doing two things. One, it's discrediting a great win by Nate. Two, it's glossing over a great fight by both men. That was an amazing fight. Put all the bullshit aside, Conor is still the fw champ. None of that was by accident.

it's criminal the lack of attention / credit MM gets. if he were up a few weight classes, he'd be commonly called the #1 p4p right now, when as it stands he's treated like an afterthought or something. I feel bad for that guy.
he would definitely do well to challenge for the belt at BW, it would get him a lot more attention. not sure why he's waiting so long to do it.

I'm not a Bones fan at all, but this is too damn true.

Sure, he has plenty of heart like a lot of fighters have. He was losing until 40sec was left in round 4 and managed to turn it right before it would have been too late. That elbow might be the most significant single strike ever landed in UFC history, his legacy would be very different today without that one spinning elbow.

If you've watched enough mma you would know that his time will come too. The biggest problem with mma fans is they get too caught up in the moment and start to believe the fighter on a streak is a superhero. They're just human, and sooner or later everyone's luck runs out.
This embarrassing , brutally savage loss by Connor McGregor solidifies Jonny Bones Jones as the one true Alpha Dog of the UFC.
And whats funny is that we his fans knew it the whole time while Connor walked around like a jack ass running his mouth.
Is the debate over? Is order restored in the UFC?
Hes going to knock Daniel Cormier out cold (my shocking prediction) and then he will batter Rumble and move up to Heavy and he did it the right way (sans his legal issues), the kid fought everybody and dominated them and didn't alienate the whole roster at the same time while making his rise.
This is the true GOAT of MMA. Please appreciate what you are witnessing.
Silva can never be GOAT just for being a damn jokester too much it cost him at least 2 losses including to Bisping. And getting popped for PEDS speaks for itself and I love Anderson.
GSP and Fedor have a case (barely) but lest cut the shit they arent on his level and we havent even seen the best of Bones.
Rant over.
Aldo, Fedor, GSP, Barao, Anderson, Ronda, Conor, Cain, etc. all looked unstoppable at one point, and then reality kicked in.

I hear ya but there are levels to this.
Like think about it can he really be compared to Ronda and Connor as an athlete and skilled martial artist? Hes on another planet than the entire roster.
Weve seen him tested and he never wilted. Hell his arm is forever ruined to this very day for not tapping to Belfort. Bones is a different breed than Connor.

I there a statute of limitations for war wagons? I mean, if you're the champion for a long time and you lose at the tail end of your career, is that really considered derailment?
Conor Ronda Sage are all considered new to MMA compared to Jones. If Jones loses now, it's not a derailment. There is no more hype behind Jones, only equity and goodwill.

They've never looked like Jones though. No offense to those guys.
I saw TJ beating Barao, Anderson eventually losing for fucking around and it happened vs Weidman, Ronda getting the brakes beat off her by an elite striker, Cain getting raped by Werdum, Fedor falling off. I saw that coming.
Only one I missed was Aldo vs McGregor..I mean the fight was 13 seconds.
What guy lurks that will beat Bones?

Conor, Weidman, Machida are short term hype trains. Don't put them in the category of Jon Jones, Fedor, Lidell, Anderson Silva, GSP.
