SHOWTIME

[NewYorkKnight]

I'm biased just because I am a huge Bones fan ... watched his career start in my hometown ... watched him live as an amateur ..

BUT

STFU FAT DAN !! cant stand him as a lard ass human / fighter or commentator ...

 

[NewYorkKnight]

awful fight imo ... jones played patty cake for 25 minutes and carried osp the entire time and looked rusty as hell

 

[SunDodger]

I agree. Jones looked a little rusty. Didn't push very hard to finish him.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

for somebody who said he was going to put on a show ...........

Not Even Close ...


Bones gotta LOT of work to do with DC on deck ... NEVER thought I would say that

 

[NewYorkKnight]

Jon Jones def. Ovince Saint Preux by UD (50-44, 50-45, 50-45) to win the interim light heavyweight title.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

very very unimpressive

 

[NewYorkKnight]

cool that he at least said he was reppin the 607

I agree. He better be glad he didn't fight DC tonight, he probably would've lost. If OSP had a little more gas, this one could've been close, but OSP has nothing to be ashamed of for sure.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

my hat goes off to osp ... as a gas can I thought for sure after 2 rounds we would be cooked ... lasting 25 minutes even vs a trashy looking jones tonight is still very impressive.

all positive for him in upcoming fights ... huuuuuge momentum booster

 

[MattyMatt]

Definitely is. I just hope his shoulder isn't too messed up. He had it dangling after the fight.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

Dana says OSP broke his arm in the 4th or 5th.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

FOTN: Steele vs. Roberts

LOL Jones needing to be moved around backstage of MGM in wheelchair ...

[NewYorkKnight]

Mighty Mouse Johnson ...


I had a root canal and thought I had a stomach ulcer during this camp.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

Sergio Pettis now has as many UFC wins as Anthony Pettis.
