Skill for skill, it was always much more enjoyable watching Anderson, than Jones, like Anderson vs Sakurai or Anderson vs Chonan etc. A lot of Jones’s fights were just ugly and physical to me. Ive never been interested in Jones’s fights nor excited watching them.
His only truly great fights in terms of technical showcases where when he was getting his ass kicked (Gus 1 and Reyes)
Hey @Nick_Diaz_Army when you say Jones is gonna smash Gane youre right
Gane’s karate stance is bullshit. Gane couldnt punch a hole through a wet paper bag with a running head start
He certainly cant punch with any kind of power to keep Jones off him or drive Jones back
I’m always simply objective, Jones aint all that skilled but what I will say is that Jones is an insanely tough mother fucker who has a relentless will to win and his chin is fucking unbreakable. Gus beat the utter fuck out of him. I still have no idea how Jones lived through that punishment
Lack of finishes, guys like Khabib have come that have shown superior grappling ability. GSP and Israel Adesanya were probably the two most boring champions the UFC has seen.
Also the crux of his argument is GSP not testing positive for steroids when he never tested during the USADA era. Actually, he skipped out right before USADA came to town after begging for it
Jones and GSP are both juiceheads. Both boring as fuck Greg Jackson point fighters. At least Jones used to be entertaining though.
