Thiago Santos is the real "Lion Heart"

[Right Hook nut shot]

Fought whole fight with messed up knee. Still used it. Also attempted to blitz Jons a couple times

 

[HelloJapan]

Yup, warrior.

 

[DaRos]

Absolute respect for him.

Poor performance by Jones, he should have taken him down and GNP. Single leg on Thiago's injured leg, I guess he just wanted to stand. Next time he won't make the same mistake. Still the GOAT.

Yup better then Anthony Smith doing nothing the whole fight, and then crediting himself for surviving lol

I thought Thiago should have blitz him when Jones had him against the cage. Jones reach is insane he was parrying most of Thiagos punches

 

[Where you at Georges?]

Yes, he should have been more aggressive but he did hit JJ with some pretty hard shots. Another man would have probably gone down.

Yep infinitely more impressive performance from Santos who brought it all night despite the injury when compared with the faux Lionheart Smith who just went into survival mode.

Deserves that nickne a whole lot more than Anthony Smith

Smith had no way to muster offense, since he lacks the power Santos has, and Jones can neutralize Smith's grappling. Smith wins via surviving and outlasting, and that could never work against Jon.

What? You realize almost all of Smith's UFC wins have come via striking or submissions right? He has plenty of power he just got overawed and fought to survive not to win.

Not the kind of one-punch power to stop Jones, and elbows in the clinch against Jones are not going to work.
