I ended up breaking down and getting this event. Pretty good card with some action pack matches. The main event could have been better, though. I feel Jon Jones hand game needs to improve, and he should link up with a real boxing coach. By not having a better hand game and getting older will get the best of him very soon.

I really wanna see a Nunes v Cyborg rematch. Hopefully that can get arranged soon.

Probably the potential fight I would look forward to most :ehh:

Jones's wrestling/takedowns have regressed, dude wrote a pretty good article about it. Its more than just "he didn't want to get bopped on the way in"
The Wrestling of Jon Jones: Adaptation or Deterioration? - MMASucka.com

lmao it didn't regress

wrestling is not hard to stop, thiago didn't allow him to take him down, he used his movement to move out of take down range and threw the leg kicks to keep the distance, that's the disadvantage of being tall, a shorter fighter would be able to step into the leg kick and get the take down

also jones didn't need to take him down he was winning the fight on the feet, once he checked thiago's leg kick, he stopped throwing those kicks hard
