Maybe, but a title shot for Jones should include a 3 fight contract at HW to avoid the Mcgregor/GSP bullshit of grabbing a title off a fluke champ and then running away, bragging the whole time like you did something really amazing...but of course they won't. They'll probably make Jones/Glover II for interim HW if that's what he wants.
Dude...keep up. Jones was already offered around 10-12 to fight Ngannou and he said no way, not for less than 30.
Randy cherrypicked Silvia but he defended. Blachowicz was never going to be an easy fight for Izzy and who's to say he wouldn't have defended if he won? Wasn't the Idea that he would win and lure Jones back down?
Ban. Jones is not fighting and never will fight Francis. Not even Jones' most fervent hangers think he will fight Francis. C'mon man.
Is it though? After the Bisping fight, he managed to beat Brunson and lose a decently close (still a clear loss) to Adesanya. He seemed to have plenty in the tank after the Bisping fight. Was he at his peak peak prime, I don't think so, but let's not act he was BJ out in the streets. That win deserves respect and stylistically played out as I would have expected a prime fight to play out in terms of volume vs. damage (maybe Silva finishes him a couple years earlier, maybe not).
He beat him once by a close decision. Most likely on roids.
Well, more like he beat him twice:
I think the answer was hiding in plain sight
Do you think DC goes around saying he lost once? There's how sports writers look at these things and how competitors do. I think a guy like DC feels like he lost twice and it gets to him. I would relate to that sentiment.
Used up my likes but you, sir, are a ripe cheeky cunt (in the positive Australian sense of the word) and spot on.
Honestly? If it was me, I'd say the dude was roided for the second fight and maybe (probably) for the first fight, so there's no telling what would have happened if Jones wasn't cheating. But DC is much more of a gentleman than I am, so he says nothing.
