"It'd be interesting to see Danny against Jon Jones," Couture told ESPN. "At the ripe old age of 40 Danny is coming into his own. He's firing on all cylinders right now.

"He's got a tremendous wrestling background, he's got one of the best right hands in the sport, it'd be interesting to see how he'd deal with Jon and how Jon would deal with him.

"I don't see reach being a huge issue. I don't see Jon being able to stay on the outside and pick Dan apart. There's going to have to be an engagement at some point in that cage and we'd get to see what type of punch Jon can take."

Danny Boy

Danny Boy!

Danny Boy?  

 

5

Danny gets destroyed

6

Oh Danny Boy, the pipes are calling..

Two words: Jake Shields. Jon Jones could approach the first round the same way he approached Rampage and crawl into a single only he'd almost certainly get it.

Dan Henderson would get raped by Jones' top game and there's no way in hell he's stopping his shot. Despite his Olympic pedigree Dan Henderson has HORRIBLE take down defense.

Couture's predictions and fight breakdowns have been atrocious lately.

9

Well, he's making a prediction on someone he has strong ties to. What the hell do you guys think he's going to say? Lol

Phisher - Couture's predictions and fight breakdowns have been atrocious lately.


This.

I still can't believe he picked Hamill over Rampage.

He'd pick an American wrestler to beat King Kong.

11

Dan would lose but it would be interesting to see if he could land one big shot on Jones to see if the kid has a chin

12

Hendo wants this Jones fight so bad. I say make him fight Machida while Bones takes a break. If he gets thru Machida, then give him a shot at the champ.

13

The diffrence between rampage and Henderson is that Henderson is still as hungry as ever,and still has the kill switch. Phone Post

14

who's the fourth person in that picture?

OK to mention the Jake Shields fight as an example is moronic because Hendo was dealing with a back injury at the time that's why he could stop shields everybody knows that at this point

Well, Rampage and Hamill are both American wrestlers although Rampage doesn't use it much except for tdd.

 

17

I think hendo has a good chance of winning

18

 CRETURE curse.........

19

My biggest worry for hendo would be how easily mounted he is. A jones mount is basically a guaranteed tko at this stage.

20

Boston Tar Baby - i see jones mounting him and FINISHING HIM with strikes. thats right i said FINISHING HIM WITH STRIKES. Yes, that means a TKO aagainst HENDO.


HOLY SHIT!!!!
