Are you hating on him because hes very good at cutting weight? if thats the case you must also really really hate Anderson silva, and GSP.

I was talking about his height and record breaking reach advantage for that division. But yes, he could easily fight as a heavyweight and yes, I hate Anderson Silva.

If GSP was a middleweight he'd be the smallest fighter in that division. That's why i always said GSP>Silva. He dominated that division.

Jones should move up to HW and fight Velasquez. Which is a fight I could see Jones winning. Say what you will, but he is the best fighter in the world.

it's utterly stupid that he's gonna go to rehab not because he's trying to get clean but for PR reasons and nothing else. i'd rather the guy just say ya i do cocaine what's it to you and go on with his life. I do think he should try and get clean but this is as see through as it gets

Shogun Rua was always my favorite fighter in pride and when he had to fight an ascending Jones, after a year lay off from multiple knee surgeries, and was unable to train until 2 months before the fight, and got beaten to a pulp... Well, that really kicked off my Cocaine Jones hate.

After that it just got worse with how much of a fraud he is as a person.

Was hoping DC would beat his ass but Jones is just too good. Cannot deny. Hopefully Gus does it.

Jones is too lanky. DC got in close and was hitting him with some good shots early on but ended up paying a price as he was eating elbows and knees to get within striking distance. He also ended up against the cage which winded him badly. I don't see anybody in that weight class that is capable of stopping Jones right now. Ultimately, he'll have a downfall exactly like Silva had where he gets too ****y and some hungry up and comer with a heavy overhand right knocks his ass out.

Gustafsson. I haven't seen the fight a second time, but watching it live, I thought he got robbed out of the decision and so did a lot of other people. Rematch no doubt coming soon. We'll see.

Hope you're right. I love Chandler but his brother is a douche bag.

JBJ is fun to watch maybe I am just a bad person because I like Nick Diaz too? IDK.

Yes I was a big Chute Boxe fan on Pride, Wanderlei Silva will always be my favorite fighter, I started training Jiu Jitsu after watching him on Pride, even though he was a Muay Thai fighter.

But the truth about Shogun is that he is as lazy as talented. I know a few people who lives in his city and do training on his gym. He goes to stake houses almost everyday, does not like to put money in a decent training camp, I heard his coaches had to go to his house and drag him to the gym in the past, because he had a fight scheduled and was absent from the camp for days.

You can see in his fights, he has gas for 1 round, then he is gone. His last fight was a shame, he's still fighting for the money only. Should retire to not get brain damage like his brother Murilo Ninja Rua.

Jones is talented and genetically privileged, what pissed me off is that he is dirty. Every fight he pokes his fingers in the eyes of the opponent, and he has dirty techniques too like that kick trying to hyper extend (or even break) the other fighters knee.

Also when he is on top or in the fences he puts his dirty hands on the mouth and nose trying to suffocate the opponent.

I would like someone to beat the hell out of him, like Renato Babalu Sobral did to that poor guy and got banned from the UFC, that was nasty.

GSP is my favorite fighter of all time, but Shogun is up their. I can def see Shogun being lazy, which is a shame. Imagine if he put in the time?

The beating he put on Rampage in Pride was legendary.

I tell you Diaz vs Silva day before the SB is gonna be epic. I just wished this fight could have happened before Silva got KO'd.

Diaz won't knock you out with one punch, but his punches come in bunches. Anderson is the best striker in the history of the UFC. Great fight!
