  1. Their performances since then, can speak for a lot, but Jones has only fought once and it was after a long lay off so I'd like to do him justice. He is however, coming off another long lay off and if his striking is anywhere as stiff as it was against OSP then I believe DC, as he said himslelf, runs through him. I honestly believe Jones' best shot is on the ground, since that seems to be where he's improved the most and that seems to be where he's most comfortable now if you listen to some of his interviews after the Hendo grappling match. Also, DC's striking has improved drastically, not necessarily in the pure skill of it itself, but his ability to close the distance ( his main disadvantage against Jones / what he needs most against him ) and his dirty boxing. In the Gustaffson fight, he did a fucking amazing job at closing the distance and unveiled these slickk uppercuts in the clinch that were busting Gus up and troubling him and I honestly believe that ( the ability to close the distance and uppercuts / dirty boxing in the clinch ) is what caps it off for him.
  2. I thought the same about the Woodley thing, but if you realise how big Maia is for the weight class and how he took down Chael Sonnen, whom with all do respect to Woodley, has not necessarily better, but amazing and stronger wrestling (based on size alone) than him. That fact about taking down Chael was the nail in the coffin for me ( that Maia can take down Woodley ) and if Maia can take him down, Woodley is about as good off of his back as my little brother. Maia 1st or 2nd round sub. If Maia somehow can't take him down, then Woodley wins, whether it's by brutal KO or like Silva vs Maia.
  3. If I had the money I'd take you up on it. You criticising someone of talking like a casual and following up with 'Jones is a special fighter and special fighters dont get ring rust' is ironic and sound amusing and.. 'special'. That comment is stupid as not only is it incorrect as 'special fighters' do often show ring rust, such as 'the prodigy' himself BJ Penn as just one example. But your comment is incorrect nonetheless as Jones himself has proven it to be wrong, literally showing ring rust in just his last fight. If his stand up is as rusty against DC as it was against OSP then DC is right, he will run straight through him in the stand up. Infact if it is like the stand up in the OSP fight (OSP, who was shook to even throw a jab - before you argue that Jones still won the stand up ), then I predict DC will knock him out within 2. I predicted Jon the first time and am a huge fan of his if that gives any evidence of me not being a 'talker' or 'virtual fan' as you called the people picking DC.
  4. Hello, I'd like to share picks and analysis for the UFC 214 fights ( you guys seem a lot smarter than sherdog and what not ). Personally, in the 3 Title Fights I am picking DC, Maia and Cyborg.
