Impressive showing by Jones. Only 21 and has tons of potential.

It was on the border IMO. I thought it was 10 - 9, but I could see someone giving it a 10 - 8

Jones should get a pretty impressive opponent for his next fight


No the opposite- he just beat Bonner in his 2nd UFC fight, & he is only 21.

They will give him someone that he can beat the shite out of, highlite reel.

Probably see him upgrading camps pretty soon, just to improve over all. His wrestling is insane, but I bet he has holes. Guy like Chuck might give him a lot of trouble.

I agree. I've never seen anyone pick against Machida so far. Was he a heavy favorite?

Jones: I train with Team Bombsquad and my training partners are Mike Massenzio and the ‘Barncat’ Tamdan McCrory. I represent Team Bombsquad but I also travel to train with many other gyms including Massenzio’s IronHorse gym.



He needs a better camp

I was impressed with the number of different things he did. Different takedowns (would do it in the last 10 seconds of the round), foot stomps, the back elbow, kneeing as soon as Bonner got off the mat, looked very prepared.

He mainly needs a better s&c coach.
