We can't even get a guy to improve on success against Jones. Guys come back from acl tears in like 9 months now. Adrian Peterson blew his in December and won mvp the next year.

look at the brightside: the teeming unwashed hordes finally realizing that almost all of Jones' fights since he got legally forced to stop juicing have been trash where he's somehow too timid to go in and finish a heavily SELF-injured opponent or some other disgrace atop the countless others

Brazilian friend said a more accurate translation of Santos would be his patella kept coming out.

had santos 1,2, 5. he just got the better of most exchanges. if he were able to use the lateral movement he had in the early rounds--which i think he had the gas for, but not the mobility--it would have been his decisively.

Very impressive that the GOAT has managed to decision such luminaries as Thiago Santos, OSP and Antonio Smith.

people should remember in the vitor fight when in the first round Vitor broke Jones' arm it still took four rounds ti finish Vitor who spent the rest of the fight gassed pulling guard, and only ended because instead he pulled side control in round 4 Jones is always never going to go for a killshot he's the killer who wants to cut open tiny insects to see how they work, not the sort who stabs people for fun, he's just a functioning sociopath

Jones has to be carried out of the ring, so his leg is hosed, too.

Vitor Belfort came pretty close on an ambar, but he let it go when he heard it pop.

I hope this fight at least taught people to kick the poo poo out of his legs. Thiago was really the first to ever include that as part of their overall fight strategy

I think a Jones loss is coming in his next couple bouts. Guys are going to watch the tape and not have their knee explode during the 2nd-3rd round. Jones is being drug tested more than almost everyone else and his eye rakes were figured out by commissions

So postivive of Jones not losing is Johnny Walker now has a chance to beat him. And I think Santos showed a good game plan and method how to go about doing that. Also the scorecard for this is sort of all over the place http://www.mmadecisions.com/decision/10243/Jon-Jones-vs-Thiago-Santos Digital Jedi fucked around with this message at 06:17 on Jul 7, 2019 |
