"I want to see Bones Jones vs Velasquez" - Joe Rogan

Go to 3;20

Bones Jones should eventually end up at heavyweight. Anyone else think that would be a great fight?

[George Whorewell]

I dont want to see him at HW-- wtf!?

I like Rogan, but Jones can be the greatest 205lb fighter to ever live if he reaches his potential. At HW I do not think he will be as effective and to be honest, theres nobody at HW I would even want to see him fight except a guy like JDS. A much more obvious match up is Anderson Silva at 205, Shogun at 205, Machida at 205, Vitor, Rampage, Rashad, and first and foremost Ryan Bader-- who I think should fight him next.

Maybe Rogan said it because Jones refuses to ever fight Rashad ( which is fucking gay ) under any circumstances-- but other than that, why would a young star who has destroyed everyone he's faced in his weight class jump ship?

He might eventually have problems making weight at 205. I think that was what Joe was eluding to about him "growing".  If and when that happens, it would make for some interesting fights.

Maybe he should actually win the 205 title first,  Joe Rogan's dealer must be spiking his shit.

I will say this, I met Jon Jones in NYC a few months ago and in addition to being pretty tall he's much thicker than he looks on TV. I was shocked that he could get down to LHW. He's a young guy still; I don't see him making 205 forever. I mean look at his brothers who play football. One is like 290 the other is like 250. They're very big guys.

Isn't he like 6'4 or 6'5 ?

[UGMT]

Not sure exactly. I'm 5'10 and he was a lot taller than me so I would say that's about right.

Rogan is a company man. He talks about Bones going into the Heavies so he'll stay away from Anderson Silva. Silva will never be a heavy weight. We can all say that. And if they can pump enough hormones into Bones, the Silva/Bones fight will never happen.  Because if it did, Bones would destroy him. And "they" don't want that.
