He didn't move the same and Gus's knee problems were well documented after the jones fight, he wasn't the same

same as Thiago Silva

Well documented where? :mjlol: Thiago was eating the kicks but was also blitzing Jones with his wild punches because Jones was out of position on return. Which goes to what I was saying early. The long range tools he utilizes won’t be effective against someone with size parity. Those awkward kicks will cause his top to get knocked off against Ngannou. Jones better develop some power with the move up

Him bulking up will be more of a detriment than an asset IMO. He’s used to fighting guys he has a height and reach advantage over, he’ll have none of that against Francis. His toughest fights were against guys his size (Gustafson,Reyes). We still don’t know how he’ll take a HW punch. He’ll have to have the perfect gameplan to stand a chance.

Im wondering how that strength will translate because jones is really damn strong. Not just powerlifting strong with the massive weights he lifts but really strong in the grappling. shyt just didn't translate to striking power.

people who are high on O'Malley and buying into the hype gotta remember that he cuts a stupid amount of weight to look as good as he does.

the average fighter cuts between 10-25lbs for a fight ... O'Malley cuts over 40lbs

ain't no 6 foot tall man should be fighting 135lb men :yeshrug:

O'Malley should be fighting 170lb fighters like Usman, Covington, Burns, etc .... instead, he's getting all of this attention fighting smaller guys like a p*ssy
