damn he's got some fast takedowns

 

[Arde5643]

Shut the fuck up goldberg

+1



The only thing Jones missing is a submission and GnP game. It doesn't seem he'll be able to drop people with his striking. He's got the techniques and timing down pat though.

 

[Handycrap101]

Now let's see Jones finish this.

 

[Hunter D]

Jones has some slick take downs.

 

[mYm|17|]

wow, elbow onto the top of the head and then a straight right to the throat............awesome combo

 

[Lion Heart]

Jon Jon with the Matrix punch to the throat. I like this guy.

 

[Jube3]

wow going in I thought this was gonna be a snoozer

 

[Stoney Mason]

If Jones gets a gas tank you've got a real good upcomer here.

 

[sooperkool]

Jones... easily

 

[abstract alien]

Bonner is looking way too sloppy right now...either that or jones is just looking too good.

 

[criesofthepast]

Jones has got this.

 

[Shawnwhann]

Great fight...I'd love to see Jones again with better cardio to finish the next fight! Only 21 years old...WOW!

 

[Hunter D]

Jones looks great. Needs to work on his striking though.

 

[Arde5643]

Can we call Jones JoJo?

I just want a real actual human fighter with a nickname from a manga/anime series with good skills. :lol

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

At 21 he has lots of time.

 

[puebla]

21 yrs old, that boy is gonna be a problem.

 

[thefro]

Absolutely... he was super impressive until he gassed 2/3rds of the way through the second round.

 

[Future PhaZe]

Jones looks good. It's hard to tell what his cardio is. He gassed early but damn the sheer amount of takedowns from awkward positioning shows that he might have good wind.

He has flashy striking but that probably won't hold up against the best. Without good GnP or subs he'll probably lose a few matches later in his career. I'll keep an eye out though.

 

[Arde5643]

Jones looks great. Needs to work on his striking though.

I think he has pretty good striking technique - but he doesn't seem to have a good finish either by GnP or Submission when he gets the opponents down.

Hopefully he can gain enough power on his striking so that he can be a threat on the standup.

 

[Stoney Mason]

C'mon Silva. Beat Machida. I want this so bad.

 

[iddqd]

so far this is the night of the clinch.

 

[Arde5643]

so far this is the night of the clinch.

Night of decision and clinches I suppose. Looks like GSP v Penn will be another decision win.

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

Next fight is almost guaranteed to go to decision. If it does that means every fight so far has gone to a decision, including all but one of the undercard fights.

 

[Hunter D]

C'mon Silva. Beat Machida. I want this so bad.

I think Mach takes it if Silva tries to stand with him.

 

[Stoney Mason]

I think Mach takes it if Silva tries to stand with him.

I think it's just too easy in a 3 round fight unfortunately for Machida to backpedal and strike and steal a victory. We'll see though. I've got a ban bet on this. If Machida wins by ground and pound I'll take a one week ban.

 

[puebla]

so far this is the night of the clinch.

yeah, it's been pretty boring so far.

 

[criesofthepast]

Fight of the night right here. I got Machida by submission.

 

[Spinning Plates]

Intimidation tactics will only get you so far Thiago.

Against Silva? I doubt he GnP's him.

 

[mYm|17|]

[~Devil Trigger~]

[Arde5643]

Holy shit at Machida.

 

[criesofthepast]

[mYm|17|]

 

[Stoney Mason]

Well shit this is a dominant Machida round.

 

[Shawnwhann]

Man, Silva doesn't even look like he deserves to be in the same Octagon as Machida

A pure clinic in round one...

 

[abstract alien]
