That makes a lot of sense seeing he has fought so many top level fighters

jones is a great wrestler and shogun is no good at defending the takedown, bad matchup for shogun because every kick he throws can end up with him on the ground and dodging elbows? it was a wrestler that almost destroyed shoguns career.

ouch!!!!

wow that was gross

Seymour · Feb 15, 2011

No one counts that as a win and Coleman is a better wrestler than Jones

hybrid · Feb 15, 2011

im not saying jones wins just a reason why the line is where it is, jones is a very good wrestler he manhandled bader who is also considered a very good wrestler.

Hybrid nailed it. Jones has incredible wrestling and a huge size advantage. Shogun has horrible take down defense. Jones has a nice reach on Shogun in the striking department as well. Line makes sense to me.

That's definitely a win. It wasn't like Shogun tripped trying to touch gloves and his arm snapped. The guy got ragdolled down.

ouch!!!!

Coleman so roided out and Shogun not totally healthy( I believe). look how active and comfortable Shogun is from the ground. not just trying to scramble to his feet like the highly overrated Bader. Shogun gonna bring some shit Jones has never encountered.

LOL reminded me of this ALL TIME vid. postfight of the vid above.

Don't ever bet the house against me..........

Seymour · Feb 15, 2011

mightyminnow · Feb 15, 2011

Jones took down Vera and then blasted an elbow that broke Vera's orbital. That was pretty much the entire fight.

Jones is another fly by night made out to be the next best thing. Will not and never will he be. The ones he beat are nothing short of average players in a game were the good have gone or will be going. Rua would hurt him bad, very bad~~:<<. Only problem, Rua has no knees left.

Rua is coming off ANOTHER surgery. The other times he had bad camps or surgeries he looked very poorly in the fight after. This fight will depend on Jones stamina. if it's good he wins easy. If not Shogun might catch him.

I do think Jones is the real deal. I do believe he would have lived up to the hype....but they could destroy his career with a move like this. it's way to soon.
