Stipe has a better chance against Jon than people expect

[StonedLemur]

I'm a Jon fan but a Stipe win is better for MMA and I hope he can shock the world

I agree that Stipe winning would be better overall for the sport.
Im just not sure he can pull it off tbh sir.

Someone else has probably pointed out that Stipe lost a decision to Junior dos Santos.

Ya I remember that. But jds dropped him hard in that fight right?

I'd like to see how Jones handles getting solidly punched by a heavyweight.

I'd say he dropped him briefly. Stipe went down to his knees and back up again quick, didn't get flattened or anything.

It's unlikely Jon will win rounds by dropping him. But he doesn't have to.

Gane didn't have the belt. Never had the belt.

Oh yeah. I forgot Ngano left it vacant. Either way Gane had never impressed me on the level of someone like Stipe or Jones.
