I didn't discredit Jones at all. I said that I think he has nowhere to go but up. I also said he's a dynamic, well rounded, exciting, and entertaining fighter that can put anyone away anywhere given the opening. I also didn't say that he looked like crap last night. I said that I was shocked and amazed at how well rampage stuffed his wrestling early on, which leads me to believe a guy like Rashad can beat him. I also said, if you paid attention, that Bones could just as easily catch Rashad and knock him out and that the only way i saw Rashad winning this was to be boring as shit and lay on him like he did Page.
I don't see how -any- of those comments is digging at Bones. I also said Shogun was his first test, but that Shogun was inconsistent as a fighter. That's not a dig again JBJ. I even said that he looked on a whole new level that fight and looked absolutely phenomenal.
This is my problem with some of the other white belts here. You guys read one negative line, get rabid, start foaming at the mouth, and forget that there are several other sentences out there praising the guy. I like his style. I see a hole in it that a guy like Rashad can exploit. I am going to hate the idea of both of them being allowed to speak leading up to the fight because I absolutely despise both of them in interviews.
So I'm going to say this one last time. That post was huge for a reason. It was probably more in depth than you wanted it to be, and I'm sorry if your idea of a JBJ fan was ruined. If you didn't want to read it, then that's fine, but don't open the door for it by running your mouth in the first place.
