Will Chael be the first to take Jones down?

[Dionysian]

Still shocked that this utter waste of time fight is happening...

 

[Erdz]

No, Jon knows what he's up against, and I can guarantee you he will be working on his elbows in the clinch, as much as I admire Chael's work ethic, I admire Jon half as much, but it isn't going to happen, Jon is on another level, a higher level then AS if you ask me.

 

[EarnPow**]

It'll be hard for a MW to take down a HW.

 

[ZackZed]

He better be. Otherwise I dont see how he can win. Pretty impressed with his chin, tenacity, and cardio. Extremely impressed with his improvement of submission defense and grappling and guard passing. Afterall, the man is in his mid 30s and been in this sport almost 17 years.

 

[Shaddows]

Chael took down every single opponent he has ever faced in the UFC. Jones has a 100% TDD rate. The unstoppable force vs The immovable object.

I think so.
This is Chael's whole game.
besides, the only reason Jones has a 100% TDD rate is because the amount of times people actually tried to take him down is almost zero, and the attempts were only half-hearted ones.

Chael will put everything he got into the TD because quite frankly, it's the only thing he got.

I wouldn't be surprised if he did.

But I'd be less surprised if Jones just threw him around.
