Smooth_Operator - i wonder how machida's wrestling will fair up against jones very interesting
Will be funny in the clinch watching them try to trip each other lol.
I see Machida judo-sweeping him.
LOL My wiseass friend saw this thread and texted me this:
How Jones Can Beat Machida
- show up
^^^
I see being a Jon Jones fan as a character flaw, make new friends.
Kostakio - - Be quicker
- Land dozens of hard leg kicks
- Pressure Jones but don't force things
- Use angles
- Close distance but disengage immediately, making Jones miss
- Land hard elbows from clinch
- Be stronger mentally
If you're reading this, Jon Jones, I don't like you.
voted up for the leg kicks
whats a great way to slow a guy down...make his thigh twice the size it was before the fight...going to be hard though because bones is so freaking long
^^^
Jones also has twigs for legs, literally the perfect frame for MMA, got to slow him down and kicking takes away at least some of his ridiculous reach advantage. I would think kicking is a big part of Lyoto's gameplan.

I think Jones is better at absolutely everything you listed. I guess mental strength could be a question mark.
Bring a gun
Yeah, he needs to knee his thighs and body in the inch also. The elbows are to make him think twice (and maybe cut) about trying to grab Machida.
Interesting points there OP.
Jones of you're reading this.... I hate you as well.
clinch*
Hmmm...
Mods, delete this thread.
Kid is really, really good.
Machida did everything right too. That's the scary part.
The guy who can beat Jones won't even be in the UFC for 7 years and is likely not even driving yet.
