pretty good card.

Interested to see how jones looks at heavyweight. He sounded extremely confident he would ragdoll gane. gonna be interesting to see if gane can keep the fight standing and/or if jon even wants to try and wrestle. jon sometimes prefers to fight his opponents strength.

cant imagine grasso having anything for valentina.

gamrot turner should be a great fight.

geoff neal should be a good test for rakhmanov

crazy to see a guy coming off contender with a 3-0 record to start a ppv main card. wish the odds were better this is probably a guaranteed win ufc wouldnt put him up against someone they think he would lose to in this spot.

Valentina inside the distance at -130 is the best bet to take this fight

We've got some of the "experts" picking Gane

quote:

I know I'll be in the minority here, but I see Jones' heavyweight debut ending in one heck of a shock. Gane catches him and doesn't relent till it's over.

Gane by TKO, Rd. 2


quote:

Here, I thought I'd be the only one. Make no mistake, I agree with everything written about Jones and his all-time legacy. He's as good as there's been. But I believe Gane's a special heavyweight. And, as Tom suggested, I think he'll catch Jones with a decisive shot before Jones can get it to the floor. Inactivity matters. Quality opposition matters. New weight classes matter. Put it all together, and it's an upset.

Of course, if Jones locks him up and ends it in one himself, we never had this conversation.

Gane by KO, Rd. 1

I hope Gane destroys him and the fake good guy stuff. Then DC can get a good post fight interview.

This is exactly why jon jones fights never sell…

All that buildup, just to rag doll that French fruitcake and then submit him unceremoniously in half a round

Came close to buying this card. Glad I didn’t. Watched the entire card on Tic Tok. 10 different people were showing it for free.
