Jon Jones in UFC on VS tonight
by everything on Sun Mar 21, 2010 4:52 pm
Jon Jones is probably the best up-and-coming fighter in the light heavyweight division in the UFC. He is the headliner tonight in "UFC on Versus". You should check it out if you get a chance. He is only like 21 or so and produces a heavy volume of strikes and throws. I have no doubt he's the future champion in this division assuming he stays relatively injury free. Machida, Rua, whomever, better be watching this guy closely.

damn you ain't kidding. dos santos has the proverbial "heavy hands". that punch was short power.

man i just love jones' at-will takedowns. but that move we were making fun of where some ma instructor just kicks a fighter off of him - the other guy just leg-pressed jones right off. jones goes flying several feet off. so now that we've seen it work under real resistance. gotta find that thread again. good upkick just now too. that might be it.
