Prediction: correct Jones   wrong Decision  

Jones may be a big favorite but i can see vitor winning this fight, but it will be really hard for him, especially with jones is reach.

Just wondering, IF Vitor wins this fight....
Does that basically seal his place in the UFC Hall of Fame?

I'd imagine vitor is headed to the hof regardless but a win over jones would put him in much sooner

This is getting ridiculous! Why not have Jones just wait a few months to fight Henderson? Why does he have to fight someone right away 151 is already dead, 152 was already a complete card! Dana saying "well Bones is in great shape now" who cares he turned down the fights you offered so **** him let him wait for the fight he signed on for! 'Cuase Belfort getting a LHW Title shot makes no sense, It actually devalues the idea of a Championship and what it takes to earn and win one.

There's a reason Jones is a 13 to 1 favorite. I want Belfort to knock Jones out cold but the chances of him winning are almost 0. This is the most lopsided title fight I can remember. Anthony Johnson was dominating Belfort before he gassed 11 seconds into the fight. Jones will take him down easily and finish him with a 1st round submission or ground and pound tko.

“We came up with a strategy to keep it clean and be sponsored by the UFC itself. I’m glad the UFC wanted to work with me as well, and I think that they trust that I’ll never make them look bad. You never have to worry about me with a DWI (driving while under the influence) or doing something crazy,” Jones explained.

“I think I’m a good company guy. The UFC asks me to do anything and I always do it, and I never tell them no for anything. I’ve had to do more marketing than any other fighter because I say no to absolutely nothing. I don’t think most champs are like that.”

There's now only two reasons I'll play favorites as far as picking. I will never pick against BJ Penn, and i'll pick whoever is fighting Jon Jones. WAR VITOR

Vitor, because Jesus is one of his sponsors. 


I would like to think landing Jesus would be a lucrative sponsorship deal, but I hear he only pays in mana.

lol at all the people picking Vitor. He is gonna get taken down, and pounded out worst then the ass whoopin gthat Randy gave him, and that was prime Vitor. Vitor has a punchers chance at best, but he is fast as hell tho, so he could clip him, maybe, but if i was a betting man, i would put money on Bones.

Jones Via GNP

Prediction: correct Jones   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Not a fan of Jones the person but he will easily take this fight to the ground and Jones the fighter has the best elbows I've ever seen. TKO round one or two. I think Sonnen/Jones would be a better fight than this. At least we might get to see Jones on his back. I'm ready for Jones to move to heavyweight so I can see him get KO'ed.

If Belfort is as smart fighter, like one of you said before. He should train nothing but sprawls and working from his back.

I think he knows very well who he is going up against. He could also put some BJJ into action and use his black belt.
