    this is gonna be crazy and I do think Jones has more chance than Rashad would have had. Very good decision IMO. :happy

    Shogun Vs Bones is probably my most anticipated fight ever right now.

    He deserves it. He's been incredibly dominant in all aspects of his game. He's out wrestling top notch wrestlers, stuffing them like they are trash.

    He's also a young man who hasn't even filled his frame yet, but this run may prove he deserves mention among the greats, even though he is probably the biggest light heavy in the history of MMA. He probably belongs at heavy.

    I personally think it is still too early for Jones.

    He needs to be tested, it hasnt happened yet.

    Well, Shogun's gonna be a test. :good

    Rashad can't fight so really, in this situation, I can't imagine a better decision by the UFC.

    Its not that at all, he just treated a man Bader (who although not as skilled is strong as a bull) like one of those child from feed the Children. He is like a hot knife cutting through butter and if he learns to use his length, hed be impossible.

    Hed beat Shogun and I wont be surprised if its easy.

    No he isn't. Forrest has a 77 inch reach, Jones has an 84.5 inch reach. Forrest is 6'3, Jones is 6'4. How is Forrest bigger??
