    Those were pretty big fights but I'd have to put Ortiz/Shamrock 1 on there for putting the new Zuffa era UFC on the map.

    Evans is all technique. He sets up his shot better than any wrestler in the division, despite not having the best amateur wrestling pedigree. He is also revolutionizing his training by bringing in top K-1 fighters like Tyrone Spong. In fact he gets his bloodwork done to measure the amounts of vitamins he should take for optimal performance. He also has layed and prayed his way to victories and avoided "fighting" at all cost. Hardly a fair comparison to blue collar Smoking Joe.

    And Jones and Ali? Lolz.

    But whatever, I will leave this intelligent discussion. As a higher functioning ****** I must not be able to grasp this well thought out analogy.

    Ali and Frazier were not only 1 and 2, Ali was the former champ who had been stripped of his title and in a marketing masterstroke he claimed to be the 'peoples champion' in the build-up to the fight.

    The only similarities between the two matchups is they are all black and one is taller than the other

    True. So Jones-Evans is not the same scenario at all.

    A reasonable conclusion.
