I just hope Jones doesn't kick him straight in the knee blowing out DC's acl/mcl/pcl/lcl 15 seconds into the fight. That would suck....

DC would still fight thru the pain and win this one. I mean Jones MIGHT get a win with a KO strike, he is the best striker in MMA IMO, but I think DCs wrestling and GNP is going to allow him to ragdoll Jones, I just know it! I am so glad he got this shot without having to be a year older. This just made my week! Is anyone planning on going?

This is one of many reasons I can't get into MMA....there always seems to be a big fight that gets scratched due to an injury.

IMO Jones is the most diverse striker in MMA now that Anderson is gone. He can throw elbows like jabs and his knees and kicks are just sick. One nasty elbow or kick COULD end it but I doubt it. Have you seen any early odds yet? I cant find any yet.


Fun Fact: I am sure you already know that DC was offered a football scholarship to LSU but some may not.

The good news is that in this case it set up an even better fight!

Jones DMed Cormier "I hope you're ready to come to daddy" and Cormier tweeted "I am. I'm gonna frick you up."

I love it! Now that Conor McGregor and DC have been added to the card in the last couple days it has gotten so sick!
