wtf?
If there is clear evidence that a fighter is fighting in a weight class that he shouldn't be, Jones' reach advantage is that. Jones should grow some balls and take his tranny eyebrows into the HW division where he should be fighting. There is ZERO honor gained by Jones' domination of smaller opponents and his sheer dominaton of top class LHW's should not be happening.
u mad bro?
u sound mad.
he sounds real mad
It's not reach class, it's weight class nancy!
Most heavyweights have a reach of 74-79 inches so exactly what weightclass should JBJ be in?
Yeh, kinda mad. Someone with Freddy Kruger lengthed arms should be in the HW division. All things being equal, size and weight count. That is what weight classes are for and I for one do not like weight cutting. JMMA may be in the duldrems, but the fighters over there have stacks more budo.

Are you seriously dumb enough to believe in the shit you write?

Hey Tiffany, one gains a reach advantage by cutting weight and bean stalking your opponents. That's what I'm against.
vruntson - ... and take his tranny eyebrows into the HW division...lol

My opinion twat. Why are you responding if it's so stupid?
vruntson -You get a reach advantage by being born with the genetics for long freaking arms.FCFBlazer - It's not reach class, it's weight class nancy! <img src="/images/phone/apple.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>

LilBrockonmychest - Dos Santos has a 77 inch reach. Jones has an 84.5 inch reach. Should he be banned from the HW division as well?
I'm trying to make sense of this.....You are clarifying my point. Jones's reach belongs in the HW division.
By the OP's logic a fat guy with short arms should just off himself because he clearly belongs nowhere..
the crazy part is machida's reach is longer than both shogun and rampage, this was his smallest reach advantage
it's not just punching dynamics though, the length of his arms make his grappling control hard to escape, his chokes extremely hard to avoid and get out of, and his elbows on the ground unavoidable... and the length of his legs allow him to stand back and fire off kicks from out of range against guys with good punching power
eventually when he gets a little older he won't be able to make the cut anymore and will have to move up to HW
I actually think when he does lose that will be how, the cut will start to deplete him too much and his speed and cardio and overall fire and energy will take a hit and someone with good speed & cardio will be in the right place at the right time, kinda like penn/edgar
Lol he was BORN with that bone structure....probably had a good bit of growth spurts in middle and high school....If he can make the weight cut them damnit by all means he should be able to fight at that weight....He's not killing himself to make 205lbs, he's doing it every time he fights and if he's just fine then let him fight....Having a 84.5 inch reach has NOTHING to do with your weightclass...I guess Sean Sherk shoulda been in the Pencil Weight division since he has T-Rex arms...-____- Lol
Ppl are really reaching for reasons to hate bones.
vruntson -Based off of your thread here, he's not clarifying your post at all. It's not ok for him to have a 10.5 inch reach advantage, but it is ok to have a 7.5 inch reach advantage? You simple, boy?LilBrockonmychest - Dos Santos has a 77 inch reach. Jones has an 84.5 inch reach. Should he be banned from the HW division as well?
I'm trying to make sense of this.....You are clarifying my point. Jones's reach belongs in the HW division.
He'd have the longest reach regardless of the division he fights in....so to TRUTHFULLY clarify your point, you'd just prefer JJ didn't fight anymore, because you don't like seeing him win.
lol @ "tranny eyebrows"
So Nick Diaz also belongs at MW? Anderson Silva LHW or HW?
Guys with skinny frames have longer reaches. Deal with it.
IMO Jones' legs may belong in the LW division, going by thigh and calf circumference.
So i guess to make you happy the UFC should abolish the weight classes and replace them with arm length classes.
Bones is just a freak of nature deal with it.
