It sucks that Rumble/Gustafsson is going down because I always felt those two had the best shot at beating Jones. UFC should have put them on different paths like they did with Cain/Carwin back in 2009 instead of having them face-off and eliminate the loser.

If Jones beats the winner of that, then the division is all but cleared.

Gus got beat. That was his path.......... NTM he let a gay man named Phil Davis beat him

Rumble is the next person that should have his shot after he beats up Gus.

I will pray for jon jones - -he has not faced a nikka like Ruble period.

Yeah, I don't know how he'll do carrying 220+ into a fight with a guy like Cain. And Cain FIGHTS around his natural walking weight. It's damn near a mismatch on paper, to be honest (just like SIlva/GSP was a mismatch on paper).

It's just a bad matchup from every angle. I don't see Joe Silva or Dana White selling out either of his only two male cash cows (Heel Jones or Mexican Velasquez. No, McGregor doesn't count yet. And the jury's still out on Weidman) like this. Not gonna happen.

IDK something has to happen. Neither one of these guys has anything on the horizon outside Gus and Werdum respectably. And Cain is getting up there and might not be around with all these injuries hes accumulating

why rumble? all jones has to do is use distance against him
Rumble has the reach to give Jones problems (78").

He's dangerous almost everywhere the fight goes, has legit KO power, and has underrated kicks as well. If he can get Jones in some of those positions Cormier did, he could finish him. But if it goes past the 3rd, then it's safe to say Bones would take it via better conditioning.

i think jones will frustrate him, he defiantly has the power though

his conditioning does suck though, i look foward to his fight against gust, he gotta get to him early or its over
