I don't think DC stands a chance
Surprised everyone has such confidence, with the layoff Jones's rhythm is going to be off. Cormier is going to come out of the gate like he stole his lunch money which will disrupt Jones's breathing and test his cardio. Don't know where you are getting this feeling it's a slam dunk

Jones is ultra talented..he'll be ok from the layoff

My friend whose a complete MMA head (and I'm not) thinks that DC is going to expose him.

I just haven't see how DC has any viable strategy that will work against Jon, the last time they fought Jon worked his ass in the clinch and fundamentally dominated him. If you're saying that he's gonna have too much ring rust to win it, is there any evidence of that?

He's chalking it up to Jon not being in the ring for an extended period of time (ring rust) and that DC will avoid the clinch.

To be honest I think he just doesn't like Jones. Imma text him bout the shyt tomorrow see if he changes his tune :pachaha:

OSP was his first and only fight under USADA if memory serves his movement didn't look the same, did not have the same explosion or strength. Was very plodding and hesitant to pull the trigger. Was this the result of time off or is this how he fights without what ever made him who he was

Jones thinking about Lesnar and Lesnar answered back
The UFC reportedly wants a Brock Lesnar vs. Jon Jones fight, and Jones commented on the possibility during a Facebook Q&A last night…

“I would love to fight Brock Lesnar. He’s a massive dude. I mean, it would be a massive draw. Really big for the sport. It’d be a great challenge. That’s a big ol’ boy. I doubt Brock Lesnar would take that fight, though. I definitely wouldn’t try to wrestle with him the whole time. I would … you know what, I wouldn’t tell you what I would do.”

Lesnar was then questioned about the fight by the AP, noting that he would fight Jones anywhere, anytime…

“Would I fight Jon Jones? Anytime, anywhere. Right now, he should be worried about ‘DC’ on Saturday night.”

Lesnar, who announced his MMA retirement on Feb. 14, would have to reenter the USADA testing program for his suspension to end. He would then have to serve the rest of his time on his suspension before he could be cleared to fight.

Personally I dont think thats really indicative of anything. Jon had him beat soundly, he really didnt need to go in and wear himself out, plus OSP was phoning it in himself. That fight was a mayweather type of fight, the judges scorecard was clearly favoring Jon so he coasted, especially in the last round

I know you can only focus on rock centric topics but if you actually read the post you would see that was an open ended question not a statement

I don't care about your crying..you focused on drugs being the major aide. Simple as that. Implied easily.
