I'd give him 10% at most. Always a puncher's chance and the higher the weight, the stronger the punches...
I feel like he has some tools that could be a problem
Not sure he will be composed enough to use them
Jon is very good at using that reach to stop opponents offense and get off enough to edge rounds
Santos beat Jon up and some think he won, after going five with Smith...Reyes has to like that trend of john going distance with MWs turned LHWs
I will go 44%
MMA Gods may favor him that night

I think Jon runs through him. I think the range, tricks, and experience will be too much. Hope I'm wrong. As I said before the previous fight, I think Thiago is the guy to get it done, but hey, shit happens and he didnt. Still want that rematch. Call me crazy, but I also think Yoel could beat him, but he's not in the weight class so I won't dive too far into that, just like potential HW matchups.
Thiago for sure...if judges didn't know the odds he would be champ
Problem is coming back from his knee injuries or whatever, might not be the same dude. Hope he is good as new but damage is damage...did jon just kick those legs to shit or some pre existing?
Yoel can beat anybody on a given night, freak show.
Jones is about 5-1 favorite -500
Reyes is 3.5 to 1 dog +350
vegas giving him about a 1 in 4 chance

Now that Jones has gone practically vegan (90% vegan) I think chances that he will lose are much better.
I give it 50/50 that we will see an upset. Of course it depends on the ref enforcing the eye poke rules. If Jones can get away with them then odds change drastically.

They will strike and he may land a little bit but jons gonna wreck his legs and wear him down. Reyes will gas out before its over

I wonder if either of these guys will be on the cardio enhancing "diet" for this one...wonder if USADA would tell us if they were on such a "diet"
You make a good point about the length of fight...Reyes has only seen 3 3rd rounds and zero 4th or 5th rounds...his fights mostly only go 1 round
Yep Jon going the Jon Fitch vegan route is all bad. Stick to the Ubereem diet...
Arianny seems pretty impressed also!
He has a better shot than anyone else in recent memory. Big young guy who hasn't taken a lot of damage . Doesn't seem to have a lot of variety to what he does ,but does his thing well. I am very interested in this one and I expect Jones to step it up .

I’ve been wanting Reyes to get a crack at Jon Jones ...it’s finally here but still give him only a 15% of winning ...mainly due to the special pico treatment Juicy J gets.
I'd go a bit higher and say 20%.
Jones is well rounded, too clever and too well coached.
I still like Reyes chances in the striking, he also seems confident , lets hope he can maintain that confidence once Jones gets that rear leg whipping into him.
