Rashad and Jones preview - The Alpha

[Heizenberg]

As much as I'd like to see Rashad upset the champion, own the stand up or put Jones on his back and pound away, the more likely scenario is Jones by something devestating...dare say he'll score a stoppage late in the first. Either way will be a great fight

I also think Jones takes this, but lets not underestimate Rashad too much. He does have one thing on Bones that no else has to this point, he has trained with him, how far that takes him, we will soon find out.

I hate when people use that as some sort of advantage for Rashad, because it goes both ways. Jones has also trained with Rashad. It takes two to tango.

Usually in a fight, two people have never trained with each other, so there's an equal level of ambiguity as far as that goes.

In this fight, the two people HAVE trained with each other, so there's an equal level of knowledge. No real advantage to either fighter.

I honestly don't think Rashad has what it takes. His wrestling is great, so it could be said that he is the toughest wrestler Jones has faced to this date, but I don't really see him being able to get inside the long rangy reach of Jones in order for him to get a takedown, and that's all he can do in this fight. His striking has improved, but it certainly isn't enough to beat Jones with it. All in all, Rashad is the underdog for good reason, not just in the betting world.

If Rashad is able to bum rush Jones as he did in his fight with Page, then it could mentally mess up Jones for the evening. I want to say this is going to a decision - spoiling Jones New Years Resolution roflmao.

Im sick of hearing about how Rashad trained with Bones and how that it will give Rashad an advantage. Here's the thing....Bone's camp is smart enough to asses what Rashad might have "learned" about Bones at the time. They will switch things up. It's been an eternity (in MMA time) since they trained together. They are both different fighters now and I feel Bones evolved more. What ever Rashad dealt with in training back then is almost completely irrelevant now.

Machida rushed Jones all through the first round and had some success but it didn't mess up Jones mentally. We all saw what happened to Machida in the end. It will take much more than that to stop Jones. I'd say Rashad's best chance is a lucky punch.

I disagree

good video but i didn't aprove of liam neison coming in half way through. I say Jones via violent K.O

[BakMan]

This video made two dangerous men look infinitely more dangerous. The knees that Jones was hitting Shogun with to the ribs should've broken them. Shogun can take it
