Hendo thinks Rashad will take Jones down - do you agree?

Bader is a better wrestler than Rashad and he couldn't do it. That being said Rashad will has more weapons at his disposal than Bader, so he might be able to catch Jones off guard with a shot. Not really sure. I think Jones wins pretty easily regardless.

 

He'd have to shoot low and drag him down imo. A straight double leaves him open to a guillotine and Evans doesnt want to get involved with Jones in the clinch

Rashad pressing JJ against the cage and work for the TD from there as he likes to do will not work, so I give him a slim chance of getting the TD

 

i dont know why but i think rashad is going to catch him with a shot ala chuck. its ganna be poetic with all jones says about rashads chin. that said im ganna still ganna play it safe and put a small amount of money on jones.

 

What are the odds?

 

I wouldn't be surprised if it happens, however I will be susprised if Jones doesn't pop straight back up. I can't see Rashad getting any sustained offence even if he does get it to the mat.

 

This.

I can't see Rashad holding Jones down at all. But getting a TD is nowhere near out of the question.

 

I would agree.. He knows his opponent well, and will land strikes if he gets you down.

He will drag Jones to the mat at least once.

 

"I know how to beat him. There are things about his game which he can't change. The fact that we used to train together gives me a lot of confidence. I know where I need to get to with Jon in order to fight my game. Jon's a tall guy, I can't, obviously, fight on the outside. I gotta get inside where I can fight my game. I see a lot of spaces in Jon's game for a lot of different things. I'm to the point where it doesn't matter who you are, if I take you down, I'm going to unleash my ground and pound on you. I think I've improved more since the last time we trained together. I'm in a new environment, I had to learn. He's in the same environment, same coaches, learning the same thing. I will defeat Jon Jones and become UFC light heavyweight champion."

-Rashad Evans

Jones has also trained with evans, so whatever advantage Evans thinks he has because he "knows his opponent", Jones enjoys the same.
Evans has improved, but not nearly as much as Jones has improved. Nobody has improved at the rate Jones has in the past couple years.

 

I bet Jones has a mean triangle on him as well with those legs. Evans better pass guard pronto if he gets top control

 

What?

I didn't say no gay **** like that...

I don't give a **** about MMA and takin dudes down. WTF is this all about? I stayed the **** outta this damn section. Ya'll don't need to make some bull**** up that I didn't say.

 

For ****s sake! Dumb **** atsch:rofl:rofl:rofl
