Jones is a monster and he more than proved it tonight. I got Jones easy #1 at LHW and #5 at P4P, he will actually have to defend his title a couple times before he starts passing up the other division champions. A win over Rashad would be a good start but he still has a ways to go before his accomplishments come close to that of GSP or Silva. They have been just as dominate over top 10 ranked fighters in their divisions as Jones in his.

Cain vs Bones is a hell of an interesting fight!! Defenetly possible to, Jones has the phisique and talanent to be a dominant force at HW in the future. Once he gets older and thinkens out he's probably gonna be a very dominant HW. Lets just hope Cain comes back from his injurty and continues to be the wrecking ball that he is.

It will be a fight to see when jones fights cain. @thiago sorry to tell you but rashad will not beat jones, even though rashad would technically have the best bet since he's seen him train and trained with him. Now this could easily be the psych out as well, I mean he's trained with him and he knows what he's capable of. That could psych any opponent out.

1. Right now I can't see anyone at 205 beating Jones. Probably the guy who has the best shot right now is Machida, but I still don't think it's a very good one. Maybe down the road, if they keep improving, Davis or Gustafsson could challenge him as well. Other than that, who knows what kind of talent could come out of nowhere out of the next few years, just like Jones himself did? Jones sure looks like he has the potential to be a dominating champion in the same way we've seen GSP and Silva reign over their divisions, though.

2. I have him at #8. If I ranked based on talent, I'd have him higher than that, but based on accomplishments, as good as the win over Shogun was, I can't put him any higher than that because he just hasn't beaten the quantity of outstanding fighters that a guy like Fitch or Maynard has.

Maynard doesn't belong there for me, he's had a bunch of decisions and doesn't particulary dominate.

JONES P4P

JONES IS THE #2 P4P FIGHTER HANDS DOWN - i agree that there really isn't a challenger out who will survive past round two.  Rashad was knocked out by Michada - not a real puncher - Jones will do to him what he did to Chuck - the only differnce being is that Jones's punch will not be a blind.  

 

LONG REIGN JONES
