    Thats the HGH abuse. Have a look at him in his early days. His head wasn't half as swollen.

    Jon Jones does appear to be a homosexual in that picture.

    I have to laugh at people thinking Jones could go up to heavy. He'd get destroyed by the majority of the UFC heavies.

    He looks terrible in that picture, but he'd still have the speed, striking, cardio and wrestling to defeat the vast majority of the overweight and undertalented UFC heavyweight roster.

    In my opinion, Junior dos Santos, Cain Velasquez and Daniel Cormier would destroy Jones. After that, Jones is a live dog with any of them. Heavyweight has always and will always be weak in terms of physical conditioning and all-round skillsets. A 230-240lbs Jon Jones completely dismantles most heavyweights around today.

    Jones and Silva arn't fighting so people might as well forget that idea, Jones was 1 of the many people Anderson shook hands with before he got in the ring. The MW division is crowded now more then it has ever been has worthy challengers should Anderson keep going.

    Jones only has a few more fights at LHW anyhow before he has literally cleaned out the division and will likely jump up to HW soon enough. I don't think any of his previous fights really warrant a "rematch"

    Well said. Some adult reasoning amongst the childish mud-slinging and irrational nonsense on here.

    You mean your post :thumbsup

    You obviously haven't seen Hendo in his early career then. And not only that the fact his been on HRT for over a decade obviously shot right over your bow.

    The only thing that pic has done is let me know the forum way too homophobic, and that Jones is a big dude.

    Is he overly muscled? No, but he isn't far from having the outline of a 6 pack and that means he is approaching 12% body fat there. Jones fights at 205. This means he enters every camp looking to lose weight. If he entered a camp looking like that wanting to put on weight, how long do you think it would take for him to get to 235 or maybe even 240. My guess is it wouldn't take long. Probably 6 months tops.

    Jones will be making the move without a sudden breakout of new talent. Jones is at a position to where he is not fighting people that have earned the right to fight him. People are getting shots based on the fact he hasn't beaten them yet. If he get's past Henderson, who's left? Little Nog, Gustafsson, and Davis are all that's there.
