He's a shadow of his former roided up self. Can't get out of the way of the shots anymore and the lack of power means he'll continue to absorb a ton of punishment in future fights. An injured Santos clearly outstruck him and landed more damaging shots.
He will continue with wins at LHW, the division is full of scrubs. Would love to see DC get a go with no Juice hesitant Jones
I just think he looks a different fighter without the PED's. His whole career is done, I have no idea how the UFC and UFC fans still love him.. he is a cheating wrong'un who I believe has cheated throughout his career. The UFC let Lesnar do the same, they basically forgave and forgot every time he turned up on rocket fuel. It's embarrassing, Jones is embarrassing, the UFC are embarrassing and Joe Rogan should just get Jones on his podcast, bend him over the desk and stick his tongue right up Jonnys backside. If Jones lands so much as a scuffing jab, Rogan is all over it "Jones is beating him senseless.." I dont know why I'm surprised, Rogan used to do it with Rousey, until she got slaughtered then he changed his tune, made excuses and he will do the same when Jones gets taken out.
Neither did **** offensively, but Santos kept backing up and got dropped a few times. Jones was there all night and Santos did nothing but land some kicks. Deal with it
Some claim it was a robbery. Imo it wasn't. It was an even fight and the descision could have gone either way. A draw probably would have been fair.
There is a bit of Jones hate in this post. Santos didn't clearly outstrike Jones. Santos was getting outworked at times, due to his injury. It was a competitive fight where Jones work rate got him the win. Yes Jones was big time lucky, that Santos injured himself early in the fight, but Santos is big time lucky that Jones enjoys beating his opponents at their game. Jones could have shot in and taken the injured Santos down, pounding him out, anytime he wanted to. Jones has some of the most devastating ground and pound in all of MMA. A lot of people forget about that, because Jones prefers to stand and slug it out, as opposed to take his opponents down and ending it early.
The hatred is strong for Jonesgranted his performance wasn't his best but there is no way he is done,people are forgetting that Santos is number 2 in the division and well as being the most dangerous striker in the division which certainly explains why he was a little more cautious and didn't have the output he normally would plus he did have total octagon control throughout and Santos missed with a lot of his wild shots
I hate how the UFC/Rogan crap on all the time promoting him as the GOAT ? BS is he. Multiple time proven ped's cheat.
Sadly at least half of the so called GOATS were PED cheats for most of there careers and while Jones may have been taking in other fights also his resume will always put him at least in the conversation as the GOAT and if he finishes his career by moving up to heavyweight and retires without any losses it will be hard to argue against it.
Its crazy to say the guy is done, given that he just beat the #2 guy in the division, although after the hohum fight with Lionheart Smith this is Jones' second so-so fight in a row. But before that he finished Gus and DC. He's clearly not finished, I am beginning to think he's slowing down. If he avoids the DC fight at heavyweight I think he might get bombed on by Johnny Walker Crimson in a year or so.
Not convinced by Walker at all. He'll be another flash in the pan kind of guy like Volkan O. was. You heard it here first.
