The result of fighting someone he isn't a half foot taller than.

Exactly!

And someone with superior boxing as well

[arce1988]

  Alex has a body just like him     very tough    plus Alex is always getting better at this point

[Wolfox]

Reality check for the arrogant boy. I wonder if he still would like to box a Klitschko.

That is just laughable.

Either Klit bro would send him into a coma.

 Usually have to stop the Champ to be the Champ.

Exactly. Gustafson was a good challenger; best Jones has had. Jones won the majority of the fight, and the rounds; ultimately bringing home the victory.

Even if he lost gustsfsson he is still a winner in some way cause everyone including the sponsor will take him seroisly now = mo money

Overall, he is going to get a ton more attention, including from the UFC. Dana White already strongly alluded to a rematch once things settle, more than the possibility of changing the rest of the landscape regarding LHW challengers to Jones title.

[BRO]

Incoming Rematch either way, will make loads of money

Dana and Co are loving this year no doubt. Anderson Silva rematch, and possible Jones rematch.

And add to that, another GSP fight.

$$$

[BDsauce]

Nice try but Gus lost.

He did the best he could, in a rematch he will get stopped

He has no real damaging strikes in him

[Wiggs]

Like I said, Jones won. Stats prove it.

No guarantee that it will be up for long, due to the UFC sending out their cyber police after these types of links.

I gave:

Rounds I, II, III & IV to Gustafsson. (Gustafsson COMPLETELY dominated Jones in rounds I, II, III & for 90% of round IV)

Rounds V to Jones (and barely...only due to Gustafsson completely gassing after the 3 minute mark).

Gustafsson controlled the distance, pace and location of the fight. Jones took Gustafsson down only once during the entire fight (round V and only for like 10 seconds). Jones came alive towards the end of round IV, but that doesn't undo what Gustafsson had done for that entire round and the significant strikes he landed prior to Jones landing those elbows.

At the end of the fight, Gustafsson looked as if he was a splash-of-water-to-the-face away from a night out on the town, whereas Jones looked as if he needed facial reconstructive surgery.

Gustafsson was robbed. It was not even close on this one. Anyone that needs a second viewing, take a look here and decide who controlled the fight (strikes, location, pace, tempo):

P.S. Regarding Gustafsson not having power behind his punches, he might not have the most powerful strikes, but it was enough to make Jones' face look like a wreck:

Gustafsson controlled the distance very well , I thought that Gustafsson won that fight but it was very close.

Agreed.

I'm a Jones fan, but I really think the judges fucked up on this one.

The Swedish didnt get anything past bruising Jones skin.

OTOH, Jones was posing a threat to Gustafsson during almost the whole fight. Dazed the guy often and almost finished the fight a couple of times.

Besides the last minute of the 4th round, where else did you see this?

The Swede got Jones down, something which no one has ever done.

The Swede busted up Jones' right eye and mouth, something which no one has ever done.

The Swede managed to stuff 99% of Jones' takedown attempts (with only one takedown occuring in the 4th round for under ten seconds).

The Swede outclasses Jones by way of his boxing, something which no one has ever done.

I don't know man, but I think the Swede took it.

all points true but Jones wasnt even remotely in danger in any of them.

During the 3rd he got hit clean a couple of times but manage to fake that didnt feel anything, but his deep breaths and running away constanly gave him away. After the 4th round Gust couldnt barely stand still and he couldnt hide it anymore, from there he was an inch from getting KTFO for the rest of the fight.

Great fight last night.

Would've like the viking to win but it never happens if up to the judges when going against a champ.
