Shuberling Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Is Jones truly screwed and going to be eating his own excrements from the toilet after Belfort destroys him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yesterdays_Hero Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Jones should win quite easily but I hope Vitor rushes him and puts him down brutally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabri1985 Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 If Victor just goes for it he could well pull this off, the worse thing he could do is stand off and try and time Jones because that just ain't going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sa80teur Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Does anyone know how Vitor ended up with this fight? Dana announced Machida and said there was no way Jones was turning it down... I'm assuming Lyoto turned it down himself then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyoto didn't want to fight on short notice, don't know how Vitor got the fight though. I guess they figured he used to be a 205er and is quite dangerous so just stick him in there. Imagine if he won.... Vitor the LHW Champion... that came out of nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then we get Silva v Belfort 2, this time at LHW. awww yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfort is decent off his back but is prone to 'breaking'. Jones won't have faced a more dangerous striker, but Belfort has. I expect Jones to try the front kick to the face to try and out-Anderson Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmoGOAT Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Sorry but I would have much rather seen Chael fight Jones. Why did he accept to fight Vitor but not Chael? Now it looKs like a bigger duck job than it did yesterday. Scared of Chaels wrestling so you picked a fighter with inferior wrestling to your own.... What a joke. Champions hand picking opponents is b*ll****. Stand in there and get ready to fight whoever the UFC throws at you. If Jones is the all time great like he thinks he is, he shouldn't have a problem fighting ANYONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones already proved he doesnt have any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma_Machine Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Vitor should just do what he once did when he was 19, wait for jones to pull a strike and charge in with 1-2's until Jones stops moving or he dies trying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCFMRE Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 If Belfort stands on the outside like he did when he fought Anderson he will get messed up, but if the old school Belfort comes out with a bull rush from hell, he has the hand speed and the power to put Jones lights out. This is actually a very interesting fight that no one had even mentioned as a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as Lyoto backed out, Dana should have rewarded Chael's willingness to save 151 and given him the shot at 152. It would have also made Jones and his camp look stupid. If you don't want to fight a Chael Sonnen who only had 8 days notice, then fight a Chael Sonnen that has time to prepare. If Jones has a problem with it then fight somewhere else. If he did that then his fan base would be completely gone and it would pretty much look like Chael Sonnen ran him out of the UFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
