Prediction: correct Jones   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

If Vitor tries his patented bliitzkrieg assault, I just can't see that turn out well.  He could easily run into a big punch or spinning back elbow.  I've always wondered if Belfort has a good ground game.  If he stands in the pocket with Jones, it might be a quick evening.

Prediction: wrong Belfort   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

If you want to know about Vitor's ground game go watch old Pride events where he held guys down while bashing their face in for 15 minutes.

Prediction: wrong Belfort   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I won't count Vitor out, but he's gonna have to pull something ******* incredible off to get the W for this one. I didnt notice if anyone else cleared this up but Anderson didn't offer to fight Jones, he offered to fight another LHW to save the card. Infact, anyone but JBJ .. Crazy, if you ask me, Anderson would ruin jones, his technique would be far too much for jones to combat anyhow.

Every time Jones fights the haters come out in full force predicting his demise, and one after the other he embarasses them. When will the haters learn? Jones is poised to be the undisputed GOAT, just deal with it.

Prediction: wrong Belfort   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

UFC 152 will be the demise of Jon Jones. Belfort submits Jones in the third via crossface. Jon Jones and Dana will have a fight right after the event. Jones will get cut from the UFC and will sign with the World Series of Fighting.

All big fights that are a bit lopsided have people trolling about an upset and on the rare occasion that it happens they don't shut up about it until the next time they are right. I just Prefer to be right more often I guess.
