BUT you didnt posTITI saw this posted earlier.
Gawd I wish Vitor would've snapped that arm.
Santos has no chance. He hits like a truck so people are excited, but he's going to get taken down and mauled.H8 to say it but Bones is a Beast
Why do you think Jones should be a heavyweight?The only guy Bones ever fought with his attributes was named Alexander.
And he gave him a run for his money.
This is why Jones will never be GOAT, he should be fighting at HW

khabib is a sissy then?The only guy Bones ever fought with his attributes was named Alexander.

Because he's a heavyweight.Why do you think Jones should be a heavyweight?
sometimes.. both cut around the same to make their respective classes actually.Does he fight guys his size?
I agree.sometimes.. both cut around the same to make their respective classes actually.
Spark dawg you saw the rematchThe only guy Bones ever fought with his attributes was named Alexander.
And he gave him a run for his money.

both dominate and neither lose.. and neither appear to have an equalI agree.
Khabib usually fights guys his size and reach, & hasn't cleared out his division.
Not a good comparison to Jones.
Tony Ferguson is DEFINITELY a threat to Khabib.both dominate and neither lose.. and neither appear to have an equal
If a guy is successful at making the weight, and never misses it, why does he have to move up to appease fans? What you described what Jones does is exactly what Chuck Liddell did, what Forrest Griffin did, Tito Ortiz did, and no one demanded that they fight heavier ( and I do realize that with the exception of Chuck, no one has been nearly as dominant as Jones is).Tony Ferguson is DEFINITELY a threat to Khabib.
Anderson Silva was to Jon Jones years ago, but they wouldn't fight each other; all Jones equals are fighting at HW as far as reach.
Honestly idgaf, let people do what they do.
I'm just saying if a guy walks around at 6'4" 230# before a camp and is still in great shape, I can't even put him in a goat conversation for cutting to fight at 205 his whole career, let alone Jones who carries several other asterisks.
We've all been waiting to see him fight someone challenging his whole career, but are instead sold guys who clearly aren't a serious challenge.
And he's not willing to challenge himself with the bigger dogs.
Which is why I said idgaf what he does.If a guy is successful at making the weight, and never misses it, why does he have to move up to appease fans? What you described what Jones does is exactly what Chuck Liddell did, what Forrest Griffin did, Tito Ortiz did, and no one demanded that they fight heavier ( and I do realize that with the exception of Chuck, no one has been nearly as dominant as Jones is).
Fighters shouldn't be forced increase their weight class just to prove their legacy. Your natural walk around weight isn't always your best performance weight in fighting.... Most fighters lose 10-15 lbs just in training for a fight, then cut an additional 10-15 in water.... And a lot of times, diet will cut out 10 lbs too (that extra weight they put on celebrating and living it up).
In round 1 and 2, he is a serious killer, but after that he is toast. Imo, he is a serious threat.Santos has no chance. He hits like a truck so people are excited, but he's going to get taken down and mauled.
Well IMO, he's not.In round 1 and 2, he is a serious killer, but after that he is toast. Imo, he is a serious threat.
Agree with what you’re saying but Because there are others who goes above Jones’s accomplishments, it’s hard to solidify him as the true Goat.If a guy is successful at making the weight, and never misses it, why does he have to move up to appease fans?

I agree, don't underestimate him too much though, he does hit like a truck as you said, if Jones can't time a take down or work him to the deck in the clinch he will probably still piece him up, but Santos has a chance at all times with the power he carries.Santos has no chance. He hits like a truck so people are excited, but he's going to get taken down and mauled.
He'll get submitted by Rd 3.I agree, don't underestimate him too much though, he does hit like a truck as you said, if Jones can't time a take down or work him to the deck in the clinch he will probably still piece him up, but Santos has a chance at all times with the power he carries.
