Well that's a W for Jon Jones. Seeing how Ngannou man handled Gane on the ground, with what seemed like relative ease and with a bad knee, don't see how Gane can get past JJ.

Jon is 22-0 and 1 DQ lost in the ufc, also won 15 title wins,  he clearly the best fighter ever,  I think it silly to disagree, no one has been that dominant for so long, 6 more then Anderson Silva in consecutive wins, and 4 more consecutive title wins than DJ, also beat the who who in the sport 

If Jon look like the Hulk, then Gane ****

Really bummed that the UFC couldn't make this happen, obviously the division has to move but Francis vs Jones would have had such an amazing hype train and buildup, people were already buzzing about it before any news of confirmation. Gane vs Jones should be awesome too hopefully, I think Jones' grappling might make it a super hard night for Gane but he's been out of the cage for three years and is moving up a division. Possible we see a totally different fighter come March for better or worse. Really interested to see how it goes but man Jones vs Ngannou's always going to feel like one that got away.

What’s up with the betting odds being added for these new huge fights like Gane-Jones and Usman-Edwards 3??? Maybe add the betting odds for the upcoming cards like UFC 283 instead? Also Jones is the favorite lol

Gane via decision this fight probably won’t be a banger but Gane got a style to reverse engineer Jones on the fight. Whether his takedown defence has held up we shall see but I predict gane by decision

I wonder if they'll add o'malley vs cejudo for the interim bantamweight title or wait til April or may since this will probably sell enough

Gane is the cable tv version of Jones it is probably the best fight for him.
Jones is faster or was grappling obviously and fight iq.
Gane got beat up by tai tuvasa nuff said.
Jones dominates 2 or 3, close round or 2 wins uni or maj dec.
He should have fought cromagnon aka blaydes.

Jones vs. Gane
Jon Jones, SUB, R3
If Ngannou's very brief wrestling experience, along with feeling an entire grueling 5 round championship fight before was enough to over come Gane on a bad knee, then I think Jones will do even better. I think Gane will have to show he's the superior striker and find a way to win the fight there, otherwise Jones will just put down a wrestling/BJJ clinic on him. Jones has had something ridiculous like 15 UFC title fights in a row, all that experience will matter and he will find a way to win on the cards. So Gane has to expose Jones on the feet or I think he's going to get drowned.
