I'd like to think Cormier is going to humble Jones, but Jones will probably beat the crap out of him and take the title back.

I was hoping it would be Rumble but at least there is a fight.

I'd like to see Ovince fight like he has nothing to lose. He has to come out strong the first two rounds because if this fight goes into the 3rd, 4th, or 5th, Jon will come out on top. His best chance to get the victory is to hurt Jon early, which he definitely has the power too. I'm looking forward to this match-up

He doesn't have much to lose.

I totally agree.  I'm sad that we don't get to see it yet, but that is how I see the eventual rematch going.  Meanwhile, I feel like OSP is fodder to bide time until Cormier is healthy..  We shall see.
