    Mannnn Jones to me acts like he is better than everyone I dont mean talent....in one interview he talks about being raised in a good home and in another he says nobody knows how hard he had it then he talks about

    how unsportsman Rashad is and in every interview thats face to face he

    always like a lil kid (daddy loves me more) how Greg is in his corner

    and just makes sure that he is hitting that nerve to say that Greg has

    his back ...Ive seen another side of Jones now and kinda understand

    the fakeness Rashad talks about its kinda like a evangelist like Billy Graham, when he talks it to win you over,.. just off,,,,but you can see

    it in Rashad he feel betrayed

    You can see it in his face every time Bones talks about the circumstances leading up to the split and what Rashad has done since. Betrayed is a good word.

    I cant help it. Every time i hear Jones talk I just think "blah blah blah, generic athlete talk, blah".



    I appreciate he is a phenomenal fighter and could possibly one day be the best ever. He's just a BORING guy to listen to.

    Looking forward to the staredown for the main event



    I got chills watching the pre-fight conference staredown, you could just see them trying to figure each other out through and realising they are actually about to fight

    @Keith -What did you think about that stare down at the weigh in? That was a double shock of intensity!.......... Goosebump city! I think Bones might just be a little worried. I think Rashad is too.

    It was one of the best title fight staredowns I've seen.



    I can't remember a fight that had so much honest emotions in it, Andy and Vitor had some but no where near as much as these two.





    People were talking about this being the biggest fight in years and I wasn't sure but after seeing the weigh ins and realising how much this fight mean deep down to each of them, I think I agree.

    There's just something about Jon Jones that really grates on me, though I can't quite put my finger on what it is.....

    Jones has never done a staredown like that ever while being the ufc. This will NOT go the distance. Jones is going to stomp Evans.



    None of Jones fights have gone the distance, and they have ALL ended with either a tapout or machida going to sleep. On the other hand Evans hasnt really finished a fight (with the excception of the weak Tito finish) since he was finished by Machida by knockout in 2009. Evans is a boring and weak fighter.

    Bones didnt come close to finishing Stephan Bonner when they fought. Bones beat him in every way that night and made Bonner look like an amature. That was the first time I saw Jon fight, and Stephan was one of my favorite fighters at the time; needless to say, it gave me reason to dislike the man early in his career.

    I don't think Bones is capable of stomping Suga, heck it might even go the other way around. We all find out tonight.

    I dunno about that bro, Jones did win but he was getting hella tired at the end.

    Also I think Jones definitely can stop Rashad, he might not but he as the potential to stomp just about anybody.

    "Bones didnt come close to finishing Stephan Bonner when they fought."



    Bonnar was on queer street 2 or 3 times (the worst was after the spinning back elbow to the back of Stephen's head).

    I guess the month of hype worked cause Im actually excited to see this fight now. I wasnt expecting much earlier since I figured it would be an easy win for Jones, and it probably will be but seeing Rashad lose will be sweet.

    After all the injuries, and then the endless trash talk, I thought this fight would never happen. I'm totally stoked!

    I can't wait Mr Crane. I hope this fight lives up to all the hype. If so, it's gonna be one that I talk about for a long time coming!



    For the most part, Bones has dismantled his opponants fairly easily over the course of his career. We have not seen how he deals with adversity as far as being controlled over the course of a few rounds. How does he deal with that and is it something that he can overcome, or be broken by?

    Why are so many hooked into every nuance and possible flaw of Jones' personality? Fact is he is a great fighter and probably the most talented LHW we have ever witnessed. Why there is so much communicated on his so called and often imaginary character flaws and not so much on the skill level he displays on a consistent level makes some MMA sites seem more like a school playground bitching clique.

    One of the most intense weigh ins I have ever seen, not because they went head to head like countless other fighters but because you know and could truly see the emotions getting to them big time.



    This is the first time I ever saw Jones physically react to his emotions in that way and push his head forward.
