Dude got nasty power he is the biggest puncher Jones has faced

Mighty Great Mouse puttin on a show against Cejudo but are we gon see a highlight worthy last second knockout :ohhh: or a dominate decision:patrice:

2 of Jones' best performances were against guys with similar measurements (j. Obrien and s. Bonnar)....and that was unpolished jones. Gustafsson had the skills to trouble Jones to go along with his good size. OSP got a good chance, though. Heavier, more powerful, more athletic ...and who knows where jon's head is these days.

Pettis-Barboza is 50-50 for me bc I don't get the vibe that Pettis will grapple how/when he needs to....Pettis is kinda done @ 155 if he loses .

I can't see any way that OSP wins this. Bones is motivated. All that time off I think has made him antsy and he's going to make a statement against OSP.

I think only if Jones showboats and drops his hands will OSP have a fart's chance. OSP will get tired from trying to close distance and getting stuffed with strikes, try to go for it and get taken down then Jones probably takes it by submission in the 2nd round.

Just watched the countdown on FS1...

This is Jones' first camp with a jiujitsu coach :dwillhuh:....he's gotten this far in his career and he's never had a PERSONAL jiujitsu coach.

He now seems to have a personal nutritionist/chef...he's already, arguably, the GOAT but he's just now getting a bjj coach and nutritionist :ohhh:...OSP's chances are dwindling drastically, IMO.

He looks to be in phenomenal shape but he's not as bulky as he looked a couple months ago when he was dropping all those powerlifting vids so...that's good.

OSP trains with NOBODY of note...just random dudes in Tennessee :russ: The training looks good but he'd be so much better in a camp full of killers :mjcry:.


Cejudo's older brother, Angel, was 150-0 in high school wrestling :wow:....he's his brother's wrestling coach....that fukking family :wow:. DJ looks locked into his training, though....this fight is 50-50 for me, to be honest.


They didn't show Pettis and Barbazo at all....that's a mistake, to me. I can't wait to spend this 60 I got this weekend. :blessed:
