I don't really know who is going to win.

Cormier has sheer strength, stamina, power behind his strikes and a ridiculous ground game.

Jon Jones has everything.

I am just excited to watch.

Agree, very unpredictable. But if there is a God, He's gonna make sure Jones gets beat like a homeless Fullerton Whac-A-Mole.

The only guy who's gonna beat Cormier is a fighter who can hold him off at distance with legs kicks and stop him coming in, but that's very hard when the guy comes at you like a freight train.  I don't see how Jones can even win this without dc loosing his head.
looking forward to this fight

What about Jones Eyepoke Of Doom? Most powerful move/technique in the UFC, don't know if Cormier can avoid that...

I got a feeling chubby Cormier
is gonna run out of gas.


I just can't see that happening with a guy as serious as Cormier and knowing what this fight means.

He's going to come in ready to go 25 minutes nonstop.

Machida, too. First guy to take a round from Jones.

Cormier has a lot going for him.   He shouldn't be underestimated.  The man is strong and he can hit like a mule.  I'm rooting for Cormier

Not sure how Cormier will deal with Jones back peddling with his eye poking bullshit but i'm sure he's well aware of it and has something in store.

Everyone who has tried to avoid it has failed. Its a great technique if the ref gives you the nod to go ahead and keep doing it (which Jones clearly gets every fight)

Tough to choose... but I'm rooting for Cormier. Just hoping Cormier doesn't get cut up from Jones' genetically sharp elbows and knee's.

Anyone have links to free streaming?

I will post up links to the fight come show time. I usually post up 2-3 links and a few other members (like hardgainerj) post up a few as well.

Some have even started to call Cormier the Black Fedor, due to his style and rage within the cage.

Let's see how things go down.

Good points, brink.

Cormier should come in wearing sport goggles.

It's sad it has to be that way but that's a referee/sports commission issue.

If it's against the rules, enforce it.

100% agree. Something should be done, the commission should really step up.

I know what you are saying, but I'd rather see the fighters determine the outcome than the referee.

I'm all down for the "throw them in the cage, stand back and let them sort it out" angle but let there be no gray areas.

Either the poking eyes issue is legal or not.

if they disqualified for eye pokes

all this pushing your opponent in the face with open palms nonsense is bullshit

Just rewatched Jones vs. Belfort, and Big John was constantly warning Jones about the fingers. They're definitely onto him.

Doesn't mean shit though if they're not enforcing it. Yellow cards.

True, but he never landed any fingers against Belfort for McCarthy to penalize.
