its funny how cormier was willing to put off his leg surgery n fight jones but jones aint gonna fight him injured,bullshit. i always said jones aint a true champion,hes gonna b exposed when he fights cormier n he knows it,jones is just gonna hide now n pray dana sets up a fight with cormier n rumble johnson or set up cormier vs gustavsenn,n then prays cormier loses,jones is showing his true colors

Do u think that Jones was trying to cool off all the heat from the literal death threats he made?
I'm not sure how Nike feels about endorsing murderous athletes…

Cormier has already mentally beaten him, Jones knows his number is up, he thought he would have intimidated him last week, he didn't and now he's injured, typical bully power play.

exactly,the fight is scheduled for january now,cormier should get his surgery done now n he will have plenty of time to get ready for chicken bones

Jones is a prima donna. The UFC must tire of his ego.

Jones is a prima donna. The UFC must tire of his ego.
but he has a pretty good record. I like him
-
I will give Jones the benefit of the doubt. Jones fights 2-3 times a year. He is very consistent and always stays active.
But I do think that Jones is a little concerned about Cormier. More concerned that he ever was before.

Ive said all along jones isnt a warrior, hes a bully whos found his niche.

Bullshit.
When it's all said and Jones done simply didn't want any.
I don't think he is looking forward to fighting that Swede either.
Jones is the classic bully with zero heart.

What a bitch ass punk.

I can't wait for the day when someone crushes Jon's face, submits him or puts him to sleep. ;D

so now they wont fight until next year, if at all.
im losing interest in that fight
-
just like tito tried to run from chuck,its only a matter of 5 months till jones loses the belt. when u r a champion n have the belt u have a responsability to the fans as well as the ufc,after all without the fans jones wouldnt have a job,ufc aint gonna pay them big money without big money comin in from ppv n tix. i was a tito fan yrs back until he ducked chuck n i was dissapointed in him,fans like u more if u fight n lose compared to hiding with excuses,chicken bones jones is exactly that,chicken,not of getting beat up as much as hes scared of losing his belt,when u lose that belt u also lose the big money that comes with it n bragging rights that comes along with it to

Maybe Flex Wheeler would accept the challenge? Cormier is kind of downsized currently afterall... ::)

you dont think he showed heart in the gustafson fight ???
-
hows flexes ground game?,lol ,cormier would have him up in the air n slammed on his head in 3 seconds,unless flex brought in the ninjas n they attacked cormier from the back
-
you dont think he showed heart in the gustafson fight ???
Only cause he couodnt get away... I dont think he expected that, at all.
All the sudden he was like 'shit this is happening', and he had to deal with it.
Niw, the prospect of dealing in with it again is scaring him I think.
Hes gotta womder how his 'eye poke' ranging system is going to work with a guy like cormier. .. I dont see cormier standing at range every time he extends his fingers like everyone else. I think hell get real tired of that and I think Jones knows if he cant keep him at range with his pokes then hes FUCKED.

i think cormier is his toughest fight
cormier can man handle people like they weigh nothing
guy is potentially the mike tyson of mma an unstoppable train
ive never even seen him in any sort of trouble in any of his fights
but i think people hate jones and i think calling him a coward is because of the hate people feel for him
he is a tough fighter did you see his toe at the chael fight
he made rashad look like he had just walked in off the street
eye pokes aside which i think they should punish him for
when he fights cormier he wont go out easy

exactly,if u look at lones facial expressions in the 4th n 5th rds he had the look of what the fuck is going on here,im jon jones n this guy aint following the script n tapping out,oh shit what am i gonna do. jones told dana straight up he doesnt want to fight gustavsenn again,the ufc basiclly had to threaten to vacate his belt if he refused to fight him,what kind of champion is that?i could understand if he knocked out gustavsenn in the 5th then i can understand his argument,but that fight was a draw at best for jones imo,and in most peoples opinion,did u see jones reaction when they announced him the winner,he had this huge relieved look on his face with alittle bit of suprise also,he knows he was in a real fight n doesnt want to feel that again,he wants the washed up bums of the 205 class

Jones beat guys he was suppose to beat. The guy is really a HW and out manned smaller guys.
He finally fought someone his size in Gus and struggled for the first time.
Cormier will own his ass because he's fought bigger men before and outclassed them.
Shame he has to wait til next year to do so....

Plus Cormier KO'd Bigfoot. I think that the only other guy that was able to do that was Cain Velasquez.
Bigfoot has beaten some big names: Fedor, Overeem, Travis Browne. Draw with Mark Hunt.

i agree,bigfoot aint no joke n got a great chin

It's not like he is going to jump over the cage and run out of there once things get tough.
The man did what he had to do to finish the fight.
My point is he has never really had to face a situation like that where he endured some significant damage.
I don't think he is looking to get back in there and have tough battles like that.
And it's not a "hate" issue. There are tons of other figthers I never really cared for who had hearts of a lion in the ring or cage.
I could be wrong. This will likely be his 2nd real test so far. Followed by a potential third with Gus/Rematch with Cormier at some point in the near future.
It will be interesting to see how it all unfolds from a mental perspective from Jones....especially if Cormier beats him.
-
jones told dana straight up he doesnt want to fight gustavsenn again,the ufc basiclly had to threaten to vacate his belt if he refused to fight him,what kind of champion is that?
Exactly.
That tells you all you need to know with that action right there.
Because you can go in and manhandle lesser opposition without taking damage does make you physically tough.
But it certainly doesn't make you mentally tough.

Jones told a friend of mine (in person) that he was pretending that he didn't want to fight Gus again.... But it was just a ploy to get Dana to offer him more money (which apparently happened).
Then Gus got hurt. Then the already injured Cormier stepped up.
Then Jones got hurt.
Note: Cormier was the only guy that was willing to fight while injured.
-
HA HA, It was Overeem who caused Jones injury. Seems Jones couldn't handle the takedown from a heavyweight.

royalty i believe u cause u seem like a straight up dude and r a quality poster, but me personally i think jones it nervous now n its not about the money as much as it is about losing the belt, hes scared cause theres a new crop of fighters rising up in the 205lb class that r animals. mark my words,jones will not get thru cormier,gustavsenn and rumble johnson,its possibe but highly unprobable,very very very unprobable n im willing to say impossibe providing those 3 r all healthy n had enough time to train

I actually watched the fight tonight. It was a pretty even first round in which they both stood and traded blow. Cormier didn't even attempt a takedown. Barnett is no slouch and Cormier beat him on the feet. The fight turned though in the second and Cormier scored a a takedown followed by some pretty nasty ground and pound that left Josh Barnett a blood mess by the end of the round. Barnett, to his credit,soldiered on and was almost knock out in the 4th but hung in there gamely. I was surprised it went five rounds, it was a tough fight and Barnett looked massacred by the end of it.

Say what you will about Barnett being older and all that but slamming a 6'3 260 pound man like that is FUCKING impressive!

You won't. He'll avoid any fight with that possibility like the plague. Thats why he fights at light heavyweight.
-
i like watching the ones with tank abbott in them,he may not of been the most polished guy back in the mid 90,s but man he was violent n hit hard, i think he was kicking fryes ass in the ULTIMATE ULTIMATE n i believe if tank wouldnt of tripped over his own feet backing up he coulda won,frye was banged up n bloody n tank had no marks on him at all

That's Ultimate Ultimate 96. Great tournament.
Tank has said that he thinks that Mark Hall may have tapped quickly and let Frye beat him in the Semi's of Ultimate Ultimate 96.
Just as Anthony Macias tapped quickly in the semi's of UFC 6 to Oleg Taktarov. You can even see Macias wink at Taktarov before the fight.
(Both scenarios allowed Tank's opponent to enter the finals fresh & energetic in both those of tournaments)

hows flexes ground game?,lol ,cormier would have him up in the air n slammed on his head in 3 seconds,unless flex brought in the ninjas n they attacked cormier from the back
Ground game? Flex would be knocked out in a half a second of stand up.

yeah macias n mark hall came out years ago when they had a falling out with a certain ufc person n told the truth on what happened,they said they where paid extra to throw the fight n lose so frye would b fresh fighting tank,same with macias n oleg,they didnt want tank beating oleg either cause the ufc did not want a self proclaimed bar room brawler representing their sport.i got a full contact fighter magazine here somewhere with the whole article about it

He was entertaining,that's for sure. A little too one dimensional though to be considered a truly great fighter.

It's been 15 years since I watched that Oleg/Macias fight but wasn't Anthony Macias the same 160 pound guy who got thrown around like a rag doll by Dan Severn?
Of course anything is possible but a talented fighter like Oleg taking out a fairly average fighter 50 pound lighter in a few minutes doesn't surprise me in the least.

Of course not the best technician , but he'd be my first choice if I ever needed help in a bar fight against some bigger dudes ;D

i knew he would get scared
He could play for Brazil in the next football World Cup (if they qualify ) ;D
