Jones vs. Glover is going to be such a one sided fight, can't wait to see it.

I personally don't think Glover will pose much of a threat to Jones but you never really know.

I think Glover can make an entertaining fight against Jones, but I don't think he poses much of a threat to him. He needs to guard that chin.

I say Glover has a slightly better chance than Gustafsson. Take down defense and punching power make a huge difference.The 2 fighters who lasted the longest with Jones both had that (Rashad and Rampage). And as Vitor showed, a little jiujitsu mixed in goes a long way.

I think Gust has a way better chance then Glover. If Gust take down defense which has vastly improved is able to hold out against Jones I think he actually has a shot. I think Glover only shot in a punchers chance. He at much more disadvantage in reach and size then Gust. He in my opinion is not as versatile or technical standing as Gust is. He also much slower the Gust. Despite getting the knock out Bader looked to be significantly faster, but Glover was more technical/better striker with great timing.

IM definetly picking gus to beat jones and im very confident with the pick also. Jones' biggest weapon is his size and it's gone in this fight, i predict another new champ this month.

What would you guys say if all the champs would change by the end of the year?

HW - Junior
LHW - Gus
MW - Weidman
WW - Hendricks
LW - Pettis
FW - Pettis
BW - Windland
FlyW - Benavidez

WBW - Miesha Tate

Wouldnt that be just wild?

The best part is that almost none of those seem overly far fetched.  Not sure about Wineland though but I could see all of those happen.

Well, Anderson happends. Nothing was more far fetched than that. Now Bendo's off the throne.

It's plausible!

Junior to catch Cain
Hendricks to catch George's chin
Pettis do decision Aldo
Tate to catch Ronda
Benavidez to add leather to MM's head

The only too that seem more far fetched are Wineland and Jones. I think Jones and Barao will stay king... and maybe Rousey, but all the others... could happen

Thing with Jones and Gus's size. Gus may be taller, but lacks 8 inches !! of reach to Jones... And that is something,even if Jones is not the jab jab power shot striker. But he is a good wrestler and I dont know if Gus can fend that off. 

Jones took Chael down.. that is something

I agree.  I was actually bordeline screaming for Gus to get matched up with another wrestler before he fought Jones.  I really wanted to see him fight Bader or rematch Davis to see just how much his tdd improved.  At this point, that aspect is a huge question mark and quite possibly the worst to have when you're a guy with Gus' style fighting Jon Jones.  We'll see though.  His chin is freaking granite and his striking has gotten damn sharp.  Stand up will interesting to see but I don't it's gonna look to well if Jones decides to take it to the ground.

And I think Benavidez is gonna take the title for sure.  He's on a mission and looks like a beast.

People are sleeping on Wineland, I think he's going to do well vs Barao.
