The UFC Should Sign Phoenix Jones

He's only 3-0 so far and while that might get you into UFC as a HW, WW is far more stacked and let the guy get a few more wins before he starts worrying about getting signed to the UFC. He might not be ready for the UFC yet, no reason for him to start his UFC career on a losing note in bad fashion just because he has a few wins on the local scene.
 
Why was he an amateur for about 4 years? I've never seen such a big amateur record in MMA
 
Probably won't sign a guy who gets into street fights in his spare time, even if it's for a good reason. Not exactly a safe investment.
 
Phoenix Jones vs Kimbo, Zuffa make it happen!
 
Possibly like Kimbo.

Eats a stiff jab and the hype train gets derailed.
 
No, for one he's not even that great a fighter. Secondly the whole point of Kick-Ass is that its not worth it being a super Hero in the end. Thirdly his brother is a much better fighter and has already been in and out of the ufc
 
He has way better striking than his brother. Not sure about his grappling.
