    I watched this by accident. It was linked behind the pac-bradley 24/7. It is interesting to me and was pretty funny. But I don't know who these guys are or what the **** they are talking about.

    Anyway - has this fight happened? If so where can I see it? If not, when is it happening?

    Thanks.

    OK, i'll track it down then.

    Any of you guys want to tell me about that fight without giving away what happens? What should I look for? Was the fight a big deal are these two top guys?

    Thanks.

    It wasnt the best fight in the world, but it was ok.

    I guess the best way I can describe it as being similar to Wlad v Haye for 25 minutes with added elbows and front kicks. Jones coasted to a pretty unanimous decision victory using his insane reach advantage. Evans was reduced to hoping Jon would walk in to a big right hand to no avail.

    Wasnt Jones' best performance. But Id recommend you watch any other of his fights in the UFC if you can find them. You wont be disappointed, the kid is gooood

    EDIT here's a decent highlight reel

    It is kind of a lackluster fight not the greatest entertainment wise

    Jones is like the star of the sport right mow, a phenom ranked no.2 or 3 P4P depending on who you talk to.

    Not a great fight though.

    Was a boring fight like most of Rashad Evans fights IMHO.....They tried to create a great rivalry to promote the fight but didn´t work IMO.....

    I didn't think it was boring, but Jones is my favorite fighter, so I was feeding off the tension alone.
