Rampage can't time fast strikers very well. If he tries to do it with Jones, it will be Rampage/Rashard again, only I don't see Jones being rocked in the 3rd round. Jones will just have his way with him and either knock him out Wanderlei Silva style, submit him or just plain win by desicion.
Which means Jackson is going to have to pressure Jones without taking too much damage from Jones's akward-but-effective striking. If it gets to the later rounds (4 and 5) Jackson is going to have to go for broke and not look to just counter punch. Also his takedown defense better be as good as what we saw against the Hamill fight (or rather, better since Hamil's wrestling is inferior to Jones)
For Jones...This is his fight to lose. Hell that goes for any other title fights (if he gets past Rampage) since I really do feel that right now the only person who can beat Jones is Jones himself.

I can't see Rampage giving Jones any problems at all, just more meat to grind.

I love Rampage but I don't want him to win, Jones is the future and the longer he stays on top the better for the sport, the bar will be higher spawning better fighters.

With Page coming off an easy UD win over Hamil he showed some new striking in his game. IF he shows up to fight i think he'll knockout Jones.
My pick is Page by KO this won't go to the judges (hopefully)

I think Rampage is probably the most durable fighter Jones has faced so far. I think if Rampage wants to win this fight he needs to take it into the championship rounds and see what Jones is made of.
However, I think Jones will try and wrap Rampage up and finish him in the clinch somehow, much to my disappointment.

@geezhound I totally agree. Rampage is gonna be swinging a lot and only hitting air. The best part of this fight will be the pre fight interveiws with Rampage. He's hilarious. Jones is way too much for Rampage to handle. You beat Shogun that easily you're a bad bad dude. Did Jones even break a sweat in that fight? Same with Bader. Jones makes it look so easy.
