@prodigy, he looked bad against Wiman and maybe I'm wrong, I watched Miller/O'brien at a small party and was drinking quite a bit I think, but Miller didn't look particularly good in that fight until the finish right? Like he arguably lost the first? If you say I'm wrong then I'll believe you, I remember almost nothing about that fight. The win over Pearson was great but he was injured i think (which I didn't believe until I saw how good he looked in the Barboza fight).
Maybe I just thought Cole looked great against Pearson, but was thoroughly disapointed when he didn't meet my standards against Wiman.

As far as the Wiman fight, I just think Cole would have a hard time with wrestlers such as Wiman. I think that's why he was dominated in the manner he was.

Yeah, Rampage did better than I expected, nobody's touching Jones though, nobody.

I wouldn't say Jones is unbeatable...but he's pretty damn close, he didn't smash rampage as easily as a lot of people thought he would. but that just proves how tough rampage really is, i mean he hasn't been finished in the ufc before jones for a reason.
I thought Rashad would present the toughest challenge for Jones before, but I think Jon really wants to beat Rashad in impressive fashion. He looked legitametly pissed that Rashad was there. And I think he is very sick of him in general
I thought Jones was very impressive against Rampage, not because of the fact that he got the finish but because he showed great patience and stuck to his gameplan. It was very methodical imo
