I can't wait for this fight, I am a fan of both fighters but Rampage is my all time favorite. I can't wait to see how Jones handles getting hit by Rampage that will be a real test to see if this kid can take a punch. I got Rampage by KO in the 2nd!!! Get that belt back!!!!

That said, this fight is too tough to call, but I put my money on Rampage. Jones is an excellent striker and grappler for sure, but I really think that Rampage is going to be his first true test. Bader is over-rated (losing to Tito? Come on) and Shogun didn't look like himself in that fight (though he did last night). But Rampage brings his A-Game every time, and while he is definitely a one-dimensional fighter (dirty boxing and takedown defense), he's about as good at what he does as anyone could ever be. He's probably the physically strongest LHW in the UFC, and he just needs that one punch to tag Jones. Of course getting that is going to be very hard, but I really think Jones is going to be tested here like he's never been tested before, and I think at the end of the night it will be Rampage's hand raised.
But maybe it's just me wanting the all-too-storybook tale of Jones losing his first title defense and coming back as the greatest LHW of all time (again, much as GSP did after Serra).
So here's to what will absolutely be one of the best fights (or most unreal knockouts) of the year.
