    Shogun looked a little tired. I don't think he can afford to get tired against Jones who is very explosive. Could have just been the training. Everythign Shogun does in training is weighted and explosive so it could be he was simply tired. I hope he is 100% good shape. If he isn't then avoiding Jones wrestling will be impossible. Even 100%, Jones wrestling is dangerous.

    Jones says he thinks he can strike with Rua, if he does that, people can catch the earlier train home!
