I am banned!
There's really only 3 fights I care about on the card.

Shogun - Jones: Jones
Faber - Wineland: Faber
Cro Cop - Schaub: Cro Cop

Should be a great card.
 
I m big fan of Jon Jones since his fight with Stephen Bonner, but this is his biggest challange so far, im pretty good at calling fights but this one i just cant.

Cro Cop will loose
Faber will win
 
The only reason I think Cro Cop wins is the experience factor. Schaub hasn't face anyone like him yet, but maybe that's a good thing. This is a big test for Schaub and if he pulls it off he takes a giant step up the ladder. Schaub and Mitrione would be a good scrap.
 
I've got Jones and Faber. If it was Cro Cop of a few years ago I would say he had it, bit now I'm not sure.

I just watched the Pre-Fight Press Conference on ufc.com, and I have to say that Jones annoys the hell out of me. He has been presenting himself like this really clean christan altar boy but then when worst come to worst he is disrespectful towards the champ and acting like a clown with his new found fame.

What is it anyway with black dudes in the ufc? Didn´t anyone teach them to show respect, repetitively they talk thrash and act with awkwardness in the staredowns (Anderson Silva, Cheick Kongo, etc). I like the way Shogun handled him... just ignore this bullshit.

Hope he (Shogun) whoops his ass!!
 
Jones is good, he will be a champ one day, but not on this run. he has not been in a fight with somone of Rua's tallent, he is fast and strong, but he is a carless risk taker that Rua will counter on for a win. his last fight was bader, jones is simply not ready for Rua. Crocop is done, he is washed up.
 
Really have to give the experience factor to Rua but the momentum goes to Jones. This will obviously be Jone's biggest jump in competition, so we'll see if he's ready for it. I think he is. Either way it should be a good fight. I still think Cro Cop will win because if he doesn't he knows he's done in MMA. I also don't think Schaub is quite ready for Cro Cop yet. Could be wrong.
 
I like Jones...I know it is a case of too fast too soon for him but man...he has the tools...the only question is Can he handle the pressure? The mental fatigue? the adrenaline dump?...We will see...
 
Cro Cop Is D-O-N-E son !!!!!!!! Time to hang it up wtf... He is a fuckin bum now! Nobody want to see him get worked anymore... give somebody else some tv time brah!


Jones pimped Rua around. . . I hope bitch ass Rashad fights him so rashad can get his sorry/goofy ass wooped too! and im really not a Jones fan...

Rashad will never be back on champ again.. he needs to face it. .

Now if Dos Santos woops Dueche bag Lesnar, itll be all good.

Absolutely. He needs to get out now while he still can. They were talking about a move to LHW, but I think for his own sake he better just hang it up and call it a career.

Jones was dominating last night. I don't see how Rashad can beat him and I am already tired of the trash talk and it hasn't even started yet. Jones will destroy him.

I think Dos Santos will be able to take care of Lesnar as long as it stays standing. Really don't like Lesnar and would love to see Dos Santos and Cain go at it.
 
There seems to be a problem with having huge people in weight classes. GSP, Anderson, and Jon Jones all need to move up a weight class. If your that talented, you shouldn't need to have a huge weight, height & reach advantage. GSP doesn't, but he is just too dominant, too not move up.

I have noticed this has been an issue since Tito & he used it to dodge all those heavies that would kill him, until his foil in Chuck came along. I have been watching since 1996 and became a fan because of Royce Gracie and Vitor Beflort defeating far larger fighters because of their talent.....*that* is great too watch. The reverse isn't.

It's a really simple solution, just have them weigh in much closer to the fight. If they can't make it, they pay half their paycheck to the other guy. No one will die from dehydration, they will just move up to their true divisions.
 
Anybody else think that Rua maybe took him lightly..didn't prepare worth shit and came in unconditioned????

Seemed like that to me..

And Jones will kick Rashads ass, Rashad is the most BORING fighter eva!!
 
Rua In his mind was going to murder Jones!. . . Ofcourse, Jones was in the zone. . I mean chasing some mugger down, and delivering a leg kick to sit his ass down, and smothering him up untill Nj cops got there. . .Talk about throwing his concintration off
