Media Jon Jones "send the deal": Ngannou

[svmVR2097]

He's just blowing smoke. Jon wouldn't be able to get Francis down, and would get hammer fisted to the side of the head trying too.

he's get hammer fisted trying an inside trip from a clinch? dont think so

Jones has been teasing HW for a long time. He doesn't really have an interest or he would have done it already. Jon cares far to much about keeping an undefeated record than putting on exciting fights for fans. That's why he's stayed at LHW for so long because he knows he's much bigger than a majority of them & the fighters at the top of the list are all easy fights for him. Why do you think the only time Jones has tested positive for PED's has came against DC? That's the only time he's truly felt threatened. He'd much rather take a suspension for PED's than take an L legit.

At HW comes more risk, that's why he wants to do a catchweight. A catchweight would just be him fighting another LHW but without the weight cut. But he's been talking about HW for awhile now and hasn't moved on anything. Make the move or shutup honestly.

Haha

You'd be a right retard to believe this shit

He is scared of 80% of the hw roster and has been for years hence why he is staying at lhw and i don't blame him

 

[svmVR2097]

So predictable and tiresome.

1. Call out fighter on Twitter who represents a significant challenge.

2. Garner media attention.

3. Never follow through on proposed match.

4. Repeat cycle ad nauseam.

if UFC never sends the contract who is at fault? In MMA the managers dont send one another contracts and then get promoter approval like boxing. Dana acts as manager and promoter essentially here, so blame him

 

[Joseph_McBride]

Never gonna happen.

I remember recently he said theres only 10-15 pounds between him and adesanya. Then said theres 40 between him and heavyweights. Stipe is only 240ish. Unless jones is saying he walks around at 200 pounds he knows hes just bullshitting.

And Santos is not a technical striker.

Santos can be technical when he wants to be, see the Blachowicz fight. I can't remember another mma fighter who has, while backing up, thrown a check-hook/reverse shift/check-hook to finish their opponent.

Its insane most posters on sherdog pretend to be above casuals but yall drinking Dana coolhead.
Francis is one dimensional brawler like we have seen so many being hyped only derail three fights later.
Francis is just a little bit more lucky and his competition a little bit older but he is no different than a Johnny Walker or Kimbo (rip)...
Just for the record I believe the other french guy Gane is far better and dangerous than Nganou.
Jones does this shit and is on the top for more than 10 years where nobody could beat him and you all forget that because the Ford escort gimmick is fun.
Reality is that Jones at HW would make Francis look like a fish out of water and hopefuly derail that hype train for good.
If BB could beat Francis imagine what a ten years champion will do to the late comer

 

[Herwald]

Frank's the true living definition of a "puncher's chance" - didn't lose his power even all gassed out vs Stipe in later rounds, but I think Jones puts him on his ass and subs him.

 

[computer fogie]

Is Francis going to close the distance? Jones will move sideways out of his way. Reyes is more technical than Francis and Jones in general is hard to hit. And if he gets a trip takedown on Francis he wouldn't be getting back up and he'd be dead gassed going into the next round the way Jon applies pressure with elbows on top

This. I would slightly favor Jones, if he's fired up for it.

In before "my twitter was hacked"

 

[Mirko Plat Cop Perry]

Will Herzog be available to ref this one?

 

[linvillegorge]

How long has he been teasing fights at HW? Stop buying these wolf tickets.

 

[Mirko Plat Cop Perry]

Jones vs Ngannou, that card would sell really fucking good no matter who fights before them

I expect Maycee barber at the co main. The entire card would suck

 

[Mamou]

Well Santos had 1 leg for most of the fight and arguably won.

There's a 0% chance he signs the contract to fight Ngannou. He's going to come back and say "Well i still have a tough fight ahead of me with Jan, I can't look past that"

 

[faustian]

Someone get the screenshot before it's deleted

 

[Greta]

I think Jones is a despicable person. But if he is given time to properly bulk up (yes, with roids of course, how else?) he would probably beat them both.

 

[SolidxSnake]

he's get hammer fisted trying an inside trip from a clinch? dont think so

No, he gets a big uppercut instead.

 

[BFoe]

Mr. “220 lb Catchweight Exhibition” is claiming he’d fight Francis at HW? Yeah, I’m not buying that. He won’t even fight DC at HW.

 

[svmVR2097]

No, he gets a big uppercut instead.

Does Francis land those in close? Most I see him land are from distance

 

[phillysmoker]

Smells like Wolf tickets are being sold over here.

 

[dangerousD]

Jones is is saving face, no chance in hell he steps in to fight Francis. Dude has been terrified of the HW division his entire career
