****************Jones vs Miocic******UFC 309******NOV 16th On PPV******World Heavyweight Championship!
- Thread starter jawnswoop
- Start date
Yeah, no way james being jones in a MMA fight.....He was trolling saying that.
Now put them on the basketball court that would be a different story..
Ud and Wade talked about it on today's episode again but they didn't name names.
Some people speculate it was Whiteside
JJ and both his parents are black belts
I know that but still don't mean he can beat a MMA fighter who's a champion and have competed for years in the cage.
All it takes is one shot but jones would out wrestle him for sure
Right, jones don't gotta swing, once he wrestle him and put him in a headlock, it's over.
Stipe has a great career record. But he's 42yo now, and last competed in March 2021 ... and we all saw Francis knock him the fuck out.
If I were a betting man, I'd say Jones has got this one via TKO or submission.

Agreed.
At this point neither guy wants to fight Tom Aspinall either. They know he's the future of the division.
Tough to get a read on Jones too. He's a legend and if not the GOAT, easily Top 3 all-time.
Dominant for years, but didn't look too great vs. Reyes and Santos. And there was over a 3 year break from the Reyes fight to Ciryl Gane in March 2023. And we only saw him for 3 minutes there, as he schooled Gane immediately. Wish we could have seen him show off the full skill set again ...

Jones I believe will beat him. Stipe hasn’t fought for years and got a bad KO from Francis.
Also, I think this Tom Aspinwall character is overrated somewhat. If you can work around his striking, you got him.

Really interesting to see how things have played out for all of them in recent years. Just looking at Wikipedia now ...
Valentina is 1 - 1 - 1 versus Grasso
Usman has 3 straight losses ... 2 to Edwards, and 1 to Chimaev
Jones has always been dominant, but last competed in March 2023, and took 3+ years off before that
Stipe got flatlined by Francis 3.5 years ago, is now 42yo, and went 2-1 vs Cormier in their trilogy
Khabib is retired, and right up there amongst the GOAT / P4P discussion with Jones, GSP, Fedor, and Mighty Mouse
Volkanovski has 3 big wins over Holloway, but 3 losses (2 to Makhachev and 1 to Topuria)
Cejudo has been off & on regarding plans to retire
Amanda Nunes is probably the female GOAT ... she'd only return if they paid her properly to face Harrison in the future. She doesn't need to though ... she has cemented her place. Especially with her dominant title fight wins.
Zhang Weili is fully back on track. The only losses in her career are the 2 setbacks to Rose when she was at her best, and in her debut pro fight which was to someone else none of us have heard of which was 11 years ago. Otherwise it's been all wins in her career - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhang_Weili#Mixed_martial_arts_record
Israel had a 20 and 0 record, but all 4 of his losses have been since 2021. The age and wear and tear have been starting to show, especially due to his decorated kickboxing career. His professional kickboxing / muay thai record on Wiki notes he was 75-5!

You know it never happen like it should when they are in their primes, I hate when these fighters want to fight past their primes.
Jon Jones ass whopping that he gave to DC still living rent free.
That’s the fight everybody wants to see
Fuck that arrogant fat fuck Tom
Francis would knock his jaw loose
Watered down Brock imo
He can’t wrestle, he’s strong but not impressive
Watch that old fight with him and Andrei Arlovski and you can see Aspinall struggling against a fighter past his prime. Take his striking away or work around it and he’s done.
It's amazing to see Alex's arrival in MMA in recent years. 2-division champ / multiple big wins / saved a number of PPV cards as a replacement on relatively short notice.
He's a fan favorite, and fighter's fighter.
Da greatest!
if him and jon jones fight, that would be the fight of the century
Crazy how time flies! Just glanced at Wikipedia ... that fight vs Hamill was 15 years ago next month (Dec. 5th, 2009).
