No he couldn't downs kid. And as noted he just knocked out one of the best strikers in the HW division.
Watch more. Post less.
While werdum's striking has clearly improved, you are making it out to be more than it is. His KO of mark hunt was a hail mary that got him a win in a fight he was clearly losing up till that point.
I think Jones would dismantle him via better standup, eyepokes, and spinning shit.
Hail mary? The fight wasn't even in the championship rounds, and his knees have been impressive since the Nelson fight. The fuck are you talking about?
It wasn't a hail mary but it isn't relevant to match up with Jones. It actually was a designed play in the fight by Werdum. He went for a telegraphed TD got up and then feinted the level change which made Hunt expect another TD which left him unprepared for the flying knee.
TD feints have proven ineffective against Jones and the way he defends against TDs don't really leave an opening for them.
That's how you call someone out.... Come to my gym and spar until someone quits, old school mma. Awesome.
Would be a great fight to seal Jones status of the absolutely best fighter in the world.
That's how amateurs call people out. Why would a guy who makes 7 figures per fight go fight a lesser fighter full contact for free?
That's why Jones is the goat and Werdum is a virtually unknown Brazilian.
