Why are people against Jones vs DC 3?

[OmegaRugal]

Umm because there are weight classes in combat sports?

But the HWs suck. Gus and all other LHWs can easily make 230lbs and best these losers right?

 

[WHITE ANDERSON]

do you want DC's kids to be orphans bro?

 

[frye666]

The residual I am talking about. You are making a different argument.

And he was not punished for the residual, so it is a bit of a moot point. All that was his last fight, not the DC fight. He was stripped for a reason.

 

[OmegaRugal]

news flash
Umm fighters want to get paid
lol!

Yet took on someone else for far less money.

 

[L.T.]

You guys do realize the 2nd fight was a No Contest? No matter what, in the history books, Jones will never have more than two wins against DC (only if DC WINS the third fight and they fight again). So why not give it ONE MORE SHOT to even the score?

If he wins that belt he will be trapped and exposed at HW. As long as Francis and Blaydes are around he won't do shit at HW. It's not necessarily about DC. /thread.. nothing else to say about it.

People saying it's because Jones is ducking Cormier at HW are silly. Jones at least called out DC for a third fight, but DC wants no part of Jones at any weight. Jones has no need to chase down a man he already beat who doesn't want to fight him anymore.

He said fighting DC at HW "puts all the csrds in his favor" 10 times. He butchered the phrase 10 times. Stop talking out of your ass.

That doesn't say much. Most of Sherdog would fight Jones (or anyone) for the right money. (You can always tap out)

Who else is Jon asking for extra money to fight? That says something.

Huh?
Extra money?
Its a championship fight for someone he beat twice.
What kind of imbecile doesnt ask for money

Do cats thing mma is a video game or something?

Well combat sports have weight classes because mass is deemed an advantage

so yes HW is far less skilled than LHW and all other divisions, but there are mass discrepancies

a fighter has to do whats right for their body mass like DC, Vera and Bader who determined they can put on (remove) sufficient mass and be competitive at HW or even dominant when they couldnt be at lower classes

Yet took on someone else for far less money.

huh?

 

[Cake4Breakfast]

They need to do it right, both being as big and as strong as they can be at HW, while passing a piss test. Don't be scared Jon!

 

[Cake4Breakfast]

You say that but deep down you dont even believe it.

DC is only getting older and Jon is only getting better. No one truly thinks DC beats Jon, at any weight.

You are right, DC can't beat an off the anabolics Jones at his natural crackhead weight.

 

[campbecc]

Tons of people want to see it at HW. But Jones won't fight him at HW.

huh?

Jones just fought Smith for far less money.

As for your first point ... then that means Jones is afraid of HW DC and knows it would not be lock that he can beat HW DC.

Far less money than DC?

has Dana and the UFC offered Jones a 3rd fight against Cormier?

Go ahead and disclose the amount and a link to said information?

 

[Mike]

They're afraid Jones will lose to him off of the gear or at HW. Jones is afraid of that as well. It's very obvious

Because you can't erase that actually happened. No other fighters gets a third shot in that context. Also if Jones only won the first one and didn't get in the accident there wouldn't have been a rematch at all. So don't realize how a rematch that only happened cause DC got gifted a participation trophy matters.

There's also a very good chance that NC gets overturned someday. Horse racing did it for Secretariat with the Preakness time. Might take years I'd be stunned if that went into the history books as a no contest once people get more enlightened on PED use. I don't think the PED zealots who want to destroy careers and reputations over nitpicky tests understand they aren't on the right side of history.

 

[Orochimaru]

Jones fans scared for jones to fight dc at heavyweight.

naaa just not trynna see the fight again when jon is clearly 2 and 0 against dc

 

[Orochimaru]

Because literally no one actually believes DC will ever beat Jones. People who say "DC wins at HW" are just saying that because they know the fight wont happen.

Gus vs Jones 3 is more interesting for fucks sake

and we already saw how jbj and gus 2 went jon dominated

 

[Orochimaru]

You are ridiculously naive if you actually think DC is clean

Hey, notice how DC never says he is clean? He always says "i never failed a test". You know a great way to learn how to pass a drug test? The Olympic wrestling team

oooooooh

 

[wigglestick]

Because Jones doesn't deserve it. A third fight won't prove anything because Jones will juice again so we'll never actually figure out who would win in a fair fight between them

 

[Hookhooks]

DC has a few fights left and he wants to win most of them. Jones vs DC 3 becomes less compelling the older cormier gets. I'd love a miracle DC knockout but he only degrades his legacy by getting whooped again. Add in that the UFC is basically sponsoring Jones's steroid use and, well, what's the point after that?
