    Not the most original thread I will concede, but the Fedor who beat Nogueira and Crocop fought the current version of Jon Jones, how do you think it would go?

    Fedor gets inside, clips him game over.

    Chael was able to close the distance pretty well bc he was ballsy but he has no power so it was moot. If jones elects to take him down he's getting armbarred

    Jones wouldn't make it out of the first round unless he ran.

    Hard to say really but its hard to pick against Fedor at his best. What are the rules? Jones being allowed to use elbows for instance could be a fight changer, fedor wasnt too hard to cut after all...

    Jones hasn't fought at heavy yet, little presumptuous to say anything right now.

    Seeing as Jones is a 220lb+ on fight night probably, he's only gonna' be ten or so lbs off of Fedor(less if the Last Emperor is in shape) and will still have a big height and reach advantage.

    Just as he'd be the bigger man if he fought an in-shape Cormier at heavyweight.

    Anyway, Fedor by armbar.

    fedor by GnP or trademark armbar from the full guard. I think a sambo match would still be interesting between the two today.

    I assume at HW because Fedor weighed about 240 back then? Also in a ring or octagon? Jones would have a much harder time staying away from a opponent in a ring. I really don't know Jones is just damn good and we have never seen his limits because no one could push him that far which makes it very hard to predict how well he would do against someone like Fedor
