m3talh3ad123 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Looking at Jones, I'm gonna have to say he is the next generation. I have never really hated a fighter, so I count myself neutral. That being said, I don't see anyone beating Jones. What really baffles me is the huge amount of stupidity of how a level B fighter such as Phil Davis could really beat Bones on the ground. Unless Phil David grows a 84 inch reach I don't see him even coming close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martino231 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 How is that hate? Phil Davis is a promising fighter, and speculating about how he'd match up with Jones does not constitute to "hate". After a title fight, one of the things that people want to talk about is "who may present a threat to the champion?". At the moment, it doesn't look like anyone at the top of the LHW division can really compete with Jones, so people are looking towards future prospects who may be able to compete with his strength and wrestling.

KRYME Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I agree with the hate on Jones being a bit ridiculous. However, Phil Davis is not a B fighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil davis with a win aginst lil nog( a top 10 ufc lhw) will put his self in position to fight a forrest griffin or ryan bader, dont forget if nog would have beat bader he would have been 1 fight away from the belt. Davis is 8-0 (4-0 in ufc) and a win over lil nog to make it 5 in a row wolud put him 2 wins away from a date with jones and i really think phil davis will "bully" bones. davis may have the best wrestling in the ufc, transitions, passes,takedowns he looks like a OVER SIZED GSP. his leg is like 3 of jones', this guy is huge!!! He still needs to devlope his striking but his kick and knees to the thigh are brutal. this fight will be a real battle of the unbeaten and could happen dec./jan. watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHenry Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 can we get a flashback to last July when Machida was the next generation? Jones isnt as untouchable as you like to believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razalees85 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 not to mention davis has a 79 inch reach which is not nearly as much of as an advantage jones is use to. and like bones he has never been on his back... now i cant wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kweiss123 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I dont get it either especially when people say he is classless and the most ****y fighter in the UFC where do they get it from. How can you hate the most exciting fighter in the UFC. He will be one of the most dominent fighters for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shogun, Machida, Jones, Bader, Griffin, Couture, Rampage, Rashad, Thiago, are all definitely above him. And I'd have a hard time ranking nog above Vera, Franklin or Matt Hamil at this point in his carreer. Although he needs more UFC fights to see for sure.
