saying Jones got a questionable split decision is a joke


Look at the damage they both took and there is no way you could argue Jones won that fight. The 10-9 scoring system is the only thing that saved Jones.

Look at gus getting almost knocked out by Jones and was beat up pretty good himself.

He didn't even touch the canvas. He was certainly clipped, but let's not make that strike out to be more than it was.

I've watched that fight 3 or 4 times and after rewatching I think Jones did win, even though his face says otherwise. GSP did lose to Bigg Rigg though! Cain would beat Jones and Jones will never fight him. Weidman has talked about fighting Jones quite a bit and that's the fight I want to see since Weidman would be heavier when they fought.

Yeah, Cain is just way too big for Jones to handle. He's a solid 40-45 pounds (20-25%) heavier.

GSP got smoked by Hendrix. That decision was a joke.

According to Wiki, Cain was 249 in his last fight. Jones has said that he walks around between 225-230 before cutting down. He wouldn't have to bulk up THAT much.

Using the 10 point must system I had both Jones and GSP winning. Using PRIDE scoring I had Gus and Hendricks winning.

Didn't the Pride system not only judge the fight in its entirety, but also weigh heavily towards how the fight ended?

Which is irrelevant to the fact (s) that GSP and Jones won.

He can do everything that Jones can do and just as well. Plus he's heavier and more powerful.


The difference in striking between Jones and Cain is worlds apart. Cain is a basic 1 dimensional pressure brawler on the feet.

I'm starting to think we're dealing with a Jones fanboy

With legit knockout power. I doubt he would let Jones stand at distance, either
