Evans just got cleared and has the pins out of his hand from surgery but apparently wouldn't be ready in time. Dana White just announced this matchup instead.

Machida +350:103631605

Jones beat two old men in Rua/Rampage. They are both at the end of their career. Dana White wants to milk this Jones run for all its worth. It ends!!! Finally he will be fighting someone with talent/speed. He will lose and hopefully he fights Hendo and he will lose that also

? Rampage is a few months younger than Lyoto, Shogun is like 4 years younger... Just an FYI since I'm assuming your are talking more about "fight age". Everyone keeps saying that Machida is the man to take out Jones, but I just don't see it. "Bones" will have that massive reach, and Machida keeps leaned back anyway. Not sure how Lyoto gets close enough to do any damage with that karate stance...

Not to mention...other than KOing a crusty old Couture, the last 2 times out he has lost to Rampage and Shogun.

The guy's post really doesn't make much sense..

Machida is an old dog of war...but jones is a wild dog...This is going to be a heck of fight...I think machida well be the winner...Jones is no good to when it comes to full contact jijitsu...and Machida is an expert in this matter...Jones well have to seek for a t.k.o or a big knock out with his power punches because I see no other way to destroy a destructer...

Jones will own machida. Lyoto lays back and counters most the time jones has good defense and the most explosive offense in this divison. Jones in 2 rounds or less
