Stipe defeating Jones won't be an upset

[Goatenstein]

He's spent more years crying for title shots he didn't earn than actually fighting. I hope Jones embarrasses him.

Just because Stipe had 2 year layoff doesn't mean shxt and Jones himself had 3 years layoff... the guy is fuking legit with a good camp he is extremely dangerous can beat any man alive if he hits his form and has the skills and know how..

This is not strickland or Julia Pena moments. Stipe is a seasonal long reigning champion who has alot of championship experience. Him beating Jones won't be an upset..

I keep hearing this fight being compared to strickland-adesanya or Pena-Nunes which is bullshit..

Physically, yes, that's true. Mentally, Stipe is a lot less afraid to lose than Jones and has been checked out for a while. I don't see that playing in his favor but I'm hoping he can pull off a spectacular knockout in Jon's last fight.

Jones should be a -1000, Stipe has no chance in this fight, he is old and is coming back for just the money, easy fight for Jones

 

[HHJ]

If 40 year old DC can take him down, I don't see a reason to believe that Jon can't...and we all know how I feel about Jon sir.

This is older and slower HW jon tho. DC is a natural HW and Jon isnt. There is a reason Jones wouldnt fight him there

Yeah, but he's not fighting DC there sir, he's fighting the guy that DC took down pretty easily at HW at 40...4-5 years older than Jon is now.

Instead of DC being 40 it's Stipe that's 41.

DC is a real HW, Stipe is a real HW,Jones is not. So it might not be that easy.

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

After the recent upsets, it would be dumb to write off Stipe.

He's a complete fighter, with a ton of experience and good power

I think Jones will win, but I won't be surprised at all if Stipe gets the W.

Crazier shit has happened lately

The only difference between Jon and DC regarding HW is DC is fat. Jon is a natural HW too. Just not a big one.

Jon is not a natural HW,he looks bloated,and slow. DC didnt always used to be fat at HW. He just got lazier later on with age.It took Jon THREE YEARS to go to HW. How can you say hes a natural hw???

Because he had to cut weight to be a LHW. Cutting weight isn't natural. All LHWs are just small HWs.

So why was simply not cutting weight not enough???? lol

 

[chinarice]

Because he didn't want to be outsized by them? lol cmon man, you knew the answer to this.

That doesn't change anything with what I said.

 

[g*r*b]

There are questions about how Stipe will perform at this time that conventional wisdom thinks it's already answered. Age, check; inactivity, check; our last sight of him doing the involuntary limbo, check.

It comes down to how conventional Stipe will prove to be...

And it's not exactly like Jones is some young spring chicken. Jones is also old, smaller, weaker. Doesn't hit as hard.

And, more importantly, Jones has never been hit that hard, either, like how Stipe is going to hit him.

Not a real HW?
C'mon man, just because he fought at LHW doesn't mean he's not a real HW.

 

[HHJ]

Oh word hes a real HW thats why he spent 3 yrs bulking up lol

Jones also has a thousand weapons that Stipe don't and has never had to contend with.

outsized by true HW's ? lol

Stipe only needs one of the ones he has to work

He spent 3 years bulking up?...now I know you're fucking with me.
Bulking up my ass, the guy was waiting for his moment.

You don't spend 3 years to weigh in a whole 17 pounds more than you walk around at ffs.
You're smarter than that.
