During the UFC 178 Tour Media Q&A, Jones had this to say about his fight with Cormier:
It’s going to intimate and passionate, I’m going to make him my wife, you’re going to be Mrs. Jones for the night. I’m going to rub on that big old belly, and you’re going to like it.

Yea I was watching live. Jones went full on with the gay innuendos. Very disturbing to watch. Both of them came off very corny today. DC was non stop rambling. Then Jones said some silly shyt about how Cormier had already previously said that Jones would him. When Cormier asked him what he was talking about, Jones just mumbled some goofy shyt. McGregor was hilarious tho. shytted on Dustin the whole Q&A. Dustin looked like a fish outta water.

Jones is awkward as hell on the mic. I thought DC came off pretty well, although he did ramble at some points. McGregor is growing on me, he is funny/charismatic, Dustin on the other hand has 0 personality.

:heh: at the dude who threw shots at Joe B. and Megan Olivi (@30:26)

Jon's owes that cut the gus, and gus owes his knee injury to jones

jones is bigger than overeem, he ain't got no reason to not be a heavyweight, neither does gus

:mindblown:

No, he isn't. Jones is around 225 pounds on fight night, while Gus is likely the same (or close to that). Overeem is around 260 pounds on fight night. Both Gus and Jones are perfect for the LHW division.

Jon Jones dwarf Overeem are you blind did you not see them next to each other

I use to think Jon Jones was thin, but he's not after seeing next to overeem, he made overeem look small, but maybe because he's off the roids

still doesn't explain the height

overeem is listed at 6'4 and so is Jones, but Jones towers over him when their next to each other, those listings are bullshyt

you the worst poster in here breh

DC as fought at Heavyweight and Jon hasn't, but Jon is clearly bigger than DC

So he can make the weight easily

Why are you arguing? Overeem is easily bigger than Gus and Jones, it's a fact. Seeing them side by side with clothing can be very deceiving. And that doesn't show Jones legs, which are ridiculously small. Stop using Cormier as an example, he was very undersized at HW, Overeem would tower over him.

Jones is bigger than Overeem, if Overeem could come in and weight more than him, which he can't without words, seeing them side by side for first the time in this clip, I can't even argue that Jon Jones is a light heavyweight. I defended jones staying at light heavyweight, but even in the middle of training for a light heavyweight fight he's bigger than a legit heavyweight overeem when matched side by side, he's almost a head taller than him, overeem might be more compact muscle wise but Jones is wider, he could easily make heavyweight.

I'm using comier as example because he IS UNDERSIZED yet he still competed there and only dropped down because he didn't want to fight cain due to being training partners.

Cormier is coming down a division, yet he is at the size disadvantage, that's exactly the point

Jones needs to move up to heavyweight, he probably won't until he breaks anderson silva's record

Fact: Overeem out-weighs Jones by at least 35 pounds and is easily bigger than Jones. Jones has relatively big upper body, but his legs are super thin (he has the legs of a 170 pound fighter). If Cormier didn't have his kidney problems, he could probably make the MW division. He's not tall (around 5'10 and is flabby with a bit of a belly at LHW).

When fighters are wearing clothing, it can be difficult to gauge size. Here is 155 pound champion Anthony Pettis beside Cormier. They look to be about the same size, when in reality Cormier outweighs him by 50 pounds or so:

Another example. In this picture Nate looks to be about the same size as Nelson and Nick looks to be actually bigger than Nelson. But in reality, Roy outweighs Nate by around 90 pounds and Nick by around 75 pounds. Again pictures can be deceiving:

Jones is the perfect size for the LHW division. He comes in cut, in-shape and doesn't look drained at all. If he had normal sized legs, I could see the argument for Jones moving up to HW. This picture shows why Jones belongs in the LHW division:
