Did Gus outwrestle Jones? Gus isn't even known for his wrestling, it used to be his weakness
Man I need that rematch
Gus was the only person to outwrestle Jones and he's not even a good wrestler. Which kinda makes me wonder if all of those stories about Jones not taking Gus serious and his toe not being fully healed were true. I never wrestled but I would guess that a bum toe would hurt on takedown attempts.Only fighter i've seen outwrestle jones was Gus. DC is a high level wrestler so I expect him to have the advantage but unexpected stuff happens in mma.

I remember Gus stuffing almost if not all of jones' takedowns and getting a takedown or two himself. Someone correct me who has a better memory of the fight. He trained with Phil Davis, so I'm guessing that was a tremendous help.
Rory said he's not getting the next title shot. Looks like they're working on Lawler v Hendricks 3
Yes, that would be logical. Just do that please if you're not going to give Rory the shot. Lawler repeatedly said he wanted to take a break after fighting so many times in 2014. He needs a break anyway.
Lawler said he wants to fight in May, June or July. Why not just have Hendricks v Rory at that March card thats supposed to be in Canada. With the winner getting Lawler at the Memorial Day or 4th of July weekend card.
True, good point. I think DC knows that though and will adjust accordingly... to make it even more boring. And I love DC. He just knows how to make a fight super entertaining and also super boring. He's done both.Best thing about Bones is he is a rare guy who has length who super effective with his short strikes. His elbows in tight are amazing. You can smother a rangy guy who absolutely needs space to get off, but walking in on someone who is comfortable throwing short fast shots is a different game. We'll see if DC can do it.
Good guy Rory, but still, **** this man. Never believe a damn thing Dana says about promising title shots
Jones will stun DC with some fast strikes, get him off his feet while dazed and then choke him FTW
If Dana goes through with this match and then skips Frankie in favor of Conor I think that would be a real bad look, and that's coming from a Pro-Dana person
They're gonna go with Hendricks v Lawler 3 because right now it looks like UFC 181 got around 400K ppv buys and in this current market thats a big number considering others were getting 150k-300k buys.
I agree but even Frankie admitted that he thinks Conor is gonna get the next shot. Granted that Conor gets by Siver, I wouldn't be shocked if he gets up to #3 or #2 in the rankings. Then the narrative will be that he's ranked high, Edgar just lost to Aldo, and how "its the fight fans are asking for", so he'll end up getting the shot with Frankie probably getting Lamas or even Mendes.If Dana goes through with this match and then skips Frankie in favor of Conor I think that would be a real bad look, and that's coming from a Pro-Dana person

Frankie knows what's about to happen. Conor will get the shot if he beats Siver. If this were on its own, I wouldn't really care that much, but couple that with Hendricks v Lawler III obvious money grab, then I start to worry.

Also don't be shocked if the Silva/Diaz winner gets the next 185 lb title shot.
