Jones Fans

[slevin]

My question is simple are you also a fan of Anderson Silva and GSP as well as being a fan of Jon Jones?

[pwerlifter2379]

Only GSP, was a fan of Jones, but much like Randa Roozie he just keeps talking.

[MuayCrim]

Yes, i'm a fan of all three, and why not?

GSP has arguably the greatest wrestling in MMA at the moment. His double and single legs are ridiculous fast and powerful and just plain fun to watch. He outclasses his opponents and makes it look easy in the process. He seems like a pretty nice guy as well. True humble.....trumble?

Anderson is a striking genius, no one can pull the shit he's done in there. He made Forrest look like he was fighting in slow motion. When he's not dicking around with opponents or getting laid on, he's smashing everyone with knees, elbows, shins, and fists. He's a true Muay Thai fighter. Doesn't help that I've met him a couple times and he was extremely nice.

I watched Jones's first UFC fight live in Minneapolis at UFC 87. He was on the undercard but to this day I can remember 4 things vividly about that card. GSP beating the shit out of Fitch all over the octagon (so much fun to watch), Lesnar punching Herring and then trying to football tackle him, Emerson knocking out Karo's cousin in 12 seconds, and some extremely lanky black guy throwing a bunch of crazy spinning backfists and being exciting as fuck. Jones is like Anderson, it doesn't matter how much you hate them....you'll still watch them fight because ANYTHING can happen. And it's usually gnarly.

Do I like what these guys say outside of the octagon? Not all the time. It's not enough to deter me away from liking them as fighters though.

GSP has arguably the greatest dry humping in MMA at the moment. His double and single legs are ridiculous fast and powerful and just plain fun to watch. He outclasses his opponents and makes it look easy in the process. He seems like a pretty nice guy as well. True fumble.....just fumble?

I try desperately to avoid Jones Interviews and just watch his fights, I cant stand his personality but he is fun to watch in the octagon

I'm a huge fan of GSP and to a lesser extent, Anderson.
I don't really care for JBJ though, I don't like fighters just because they're the champs, I go off of personality more than anything.

I'd take Jones personality over fedor's robotic quiet one any day. I do like Asilva and GSP also, but its not because they are the champs forever, I'm more amazed by Asilva's striking intelligence, and think no one is more intelligent when it comes to using striking than him, ever since I viewed his instructional DVD's, and just the ease of what he does is incredible.

GSP is more of a respect than like thing,, just to see how he bounced back from that Serra beaten to evolve into just saying "fuck it im going to pick you apart for 5 rounds and there is basically nothing you can do about it because I'm so well rounded and athletic". That just amuses me, and if GSP continues to dominate after he comes back against the likes of Condit, Diaz and etc, he might be the actual GOAT.

I just think they work smarter than anyone else.

i was gonna make a thread similar to this the other day about fighters that people like and for what reason (not just champs)

i'm a fan of all 3 of them (actually every champ so all is right in the world ) but GSP has been pissing me off since his last fight with BJ Penn. just because he doesnt seem willing to finish a fight when he clearly can and his point fighting isnt even exciting. so im hoping condit takes the belt from him but i dont think it'll happen. but who knows, he hasnt fought in over a year.

Exactly how feel. I won't know how you can't be a fan of these three guys.

[bruins2012]

I wouldn't say I'm not a fan of Jones' fights, just not a fan of the words that come out of his mouth. I feel like Always Sunny can sum up how I feel about Jones with this quote, "Look at Bones Jones sitting on his cloud of judgement, passing out life lessons to all the sinners".

im serious man, cain did us all a favor by dethroning brock, jones ascension was second to none, and ever since bendo was champ i WEC i knew he had what it took to be a UFC champ.

and even if most titles change hands i'd still be okay with the champs

hendo
condit
cain
barao

would all be worthy champs imo. just as long as long as aldo never loses and diaz never gets his paws on that LW belt. oh and mir never fights for a HW title again
