    Fail? Sounds like you failed.. That picture rocks, eat you're carrots.

    Never said it would be a "fight", just that's you're opinion, man.

    After suggesting tune ups in MMA.. I'll take any advice with a grain of salt :yep

    Hendo is shot to peices
    Davis / Evans = the same thing once there fight is through
    Machida's already been finished , as has Rampage and Shogun
    Lawal is not ready , not nearly
    Silva will not campain @205 again
    Sonnen , well lets leave that there ......................

    Which leaves Gustafsson , aside from Davis and Evans

    The man's as much as already cleared out the competition decisively

    In 3 fights he should be a HW :deal

    This is quite possibly one of the easiest fights to pick of all-time and I don't understand why it isn't crystal clear to everyone. Rashad has trash hands, terrible footwork, and no Chin. He does not have the wrestling chops to get it down and dryhump Jones to a decision so he'll be forced to trade punches and work in the clinch against a much larger, stronger, and superior clinch fighter. Most importantly, he struggles with tall, rangy fighters, even slow and uncoordinated ones like Glass Jaw Griffin, and he's never shown any ability to counter or get inside even the most basic of jabs. He will be brutally and embarrassingly KOed in a terrible mismatch and even Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder could see it coming.

    Evans, but Greg Jackson in Jones corner could be HUGE disadvantage for exposing Evans weaknesses.

    Silva, because of his pinpoint accurate, heavy handed striking.


    Phil Davis, because he should be able to out grapple Jones, and stay out of striking distance, (too close for jones long reach).

    Jones' size advantage is enough to overwhelm any opponent combined, if he can continue to execute Jackson's gameplan, he'll be unstoppable at 205.

    I agree with every single syllable of this post, for once. I'm bored of people talking about Rashad's "wrestling abilities" when discussing this fight. It's as if they haven't seen Jones dominate Rampage, Bader and Hamill as if they were nothing. I'm even bored of them talking up Rashad's "striking abilities" because he drove his knee into the "Glass Stomach" of a completely shot-to-**** Tito Ortiz, when Jones fought the 2nd round of his fight on an equal footing with Lyoto Machida, the man who stanky-legged Rashad into ****ing oblivion in 2 rounds. If this fight stays on the feet, Rashad gets mangled within a couple of minutes, if this fight goes to the ground, Rashad gets wrestled-humped like an empty tracksuit and then either submitted with ease or elbowed into a bloody mess. He has absolutely nothing for Jon Jones in any way at all whatsoever.

    Evans' has no shot in hell of out grappling Jones, but he has been heavy handed at times
    and can possibly get inside with a quick combo.
    Don't give Evans much chance, but the post wanted 3 fighters.
    Phil Davis is the only fighter I really think would beat him, too much size advantage for Silva or Evans.
