Watching these Jones clips... He seems scary confident and also having a good time
Where as DC seems to be carrying the weight of the fight on his shoulders.

We'll find out if any of it means anything soon enough!

I agree that Jones seems scary confident, but DC has appeared to be pretty composed thus far, especially when compared to their first fight. The way he played around with the crowd at the open workouts is a good indicator that he's feeling pretty confident himself. Looking forward to this one.

Yeah I think they are kinda both over being pissed off royaly at each other.
It just seemed to me that DC was wearing the pressure on his face more then Bones
but I may just be looking for it and seeing what my mind thinks

Confirmation bias, perhaps? It's worth keeping in mind that DC had the harder cut of the two. Let's see how they behave at the ceremonial weigh-ins later today.

At UFC 177 Barao was forced out of his fight with TJ before the weigh ins. California is trying to get ahead of the game when it comes to protecting fighters. They would not sanction a bout at 135 for him again in the state. They told the UFC for this bout to happen it would have to take place at 140.

Jones
Cyborg
Woodley
Lawler

The only question is will Jones get the stoppage or have to take a decision. I think stoppage.

I'm at the weigh ins right now.

Jones blew DC a kiss lol.

If this was a better setup, I'd upload the weigh in vid from my phone.

I met Mike Wiklejon afterwards.


I mini-interviewed him about Jones.
He said Jones has been looking "absolutely spectacular" in training.

I had my reservations about ring rust, etc, but I'll take his word for it.

I had to pop on this PPV and pay up.

Too many great fights to risk missing going down the river.

Many can be a Main event.

Hyped!

Where is the card taking place, and do the new rules apply (downed fighter, extended fingers?)
