Jon Jones to face Vitor Belfort on Sept 22

source?

 

WTF?!!!? Belfort should just go ape **** early.

 

Davis should've got the shot IMO. He's not injured, nothing exciting up except PRado rematch and only loss to Evans....admittedly in dominant fashion.

 

This fight is a joke. Easy win for Jones. Can't believe Machida turned this fight down . Way worse than Jones turning the Sonnen fight down IMO.

 

Jones was turning down a smaller guy coming off a loss who has nothing to offer him stylistically. Machida is turning down the champion, a bigger guy who has already wasted him.

You're a spastic.

 

This fight is a lot more interesting than a Machida rematch.

 

Two middleweights are willing to fight that bigger champion , one of them on a weeks notice and I'm a spastic because I believe Machida who is the number one contender to Jones should have taken the fight on a months notice?

 

Yeah I guess...maybe we will get a Dan Henderson vs Machida fight out of this whole mess.

 

this

 

I understand Machida is a legitimate contender who earned the right to take his shot to take when he wants. It would be completely ******ed to take a fight now, he would want to wait and prepare until conditions are suited for a title shot. Vitor has nothing to lose taking on Jones.

ALso sonnen putting his hand up with 8 days notice shows what a great warrior the man is. He has made Jones look like an idiot turning it down, a decision move which will no doubt give jones penty of headache from now on.

 

:happy True.

 

:huh How do you come to that conclusion??

 

I'd assume this fight will just be Jones taking him down with ease then elbowing him into oblivion on the ground.

I wish Jones would just fight Belfort on the feet. It makes the fight much more dangerous for him, but much more exciting for us. If I was Belfort I'd just explode from the first bell and try to knock Bones out. **** it, it's his best chance of winning.
