    yea shogun looked gassed from the downward elbow strikes that jones threw on him while he was on the ground and other than that shogun couldnt really get inside jone's freakishly long reach, hope machida kills jones with another crane kick tho.

    There is no version of Rua that has ever existed that would beat the Jon Jones that showed up at UFC 128.

    I loved Pride as much as anybody but I also live in reality.

    Agreed. And it's hard to talk about any guy in Pride in his prime because they were all highly juiced back in the day.

    Serious? Any names?

    My brother says that Overeem never defended the Strikeforce title he won in 2007 because he was on the roids, so he stayed in Japan.

    Jones has no business competing against Ovareem.

    yes, that's why he is a freak, built his stengrh up with Roids now look at the guy, if I was a young fighter I would go to Japan, get roided up for 2 years, build up my base Roy Jones Jr style and then complete like Overeem has.

    I remember when Arlovski was the unbeatable champion and everyone were saying the same about him as Jones now. I think Jones is better, but if the BJJ world champion is not going to submit Overeem...... Jones is surely as my balls are hairy, ain't going to either.

    Personally, I don't believe a guy can off surgery and be at his fighting peak condition. JMHO.

    Agreed. 2005 Shogun was a phenomenon.
