Last I saw of him was when he posted his avatars for team penn

I'm not seeing a finish for Bones but a 49-46 victory that will cap off an incredible year.

I got Jones in 2 rounds. First round to find his reach and than the second round to utilize it. TKO somewhere in the 2nd. Still not sure how tough Machidas chin is either. I think its going to take a strong wrestler to beat Jones, his reach is to overwhelming

I have Jones to win VIA ground n pound in the 3rd. Machida will have troulbe getting inside and it will cause him tolose focus on his takedown defence and thats where Jones will get o top and wear him out and eventually gain the stoppage.

I just don't think Machida's style matches up all that well with Jones'

I think the reach advantage if gonne give Machida problems since his style is kinda just to stay on the out side and counter strike.

Jones gets the TKO in the 3rd or 4th via punches and body knees.

Prediction: correct Jones   wrong KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

The truth is I want Machida to win, more importantly I want Jones to lose. I think Jones is an amazing fighter but he has not come into his full potential yet and I want to see that. I think the only way for him to reach his full potential is a loss. Look at GSP v Serra 1.

When it comes down to where I put my $$$ I need to say Jones wins it with his freakish reach nullifying Machida's lunge in and out style.

That being said I think the 3 men that have the best shot to dethrone Jones out of anyone are Anderson Silva (if Silva decided to go up) Rashad Evens and Machida.

Oh geez, Look maybe if this was 2009 and not almost 2012 Machida might have a good chance against Bones. Truth is Bones is fighting on another level then Machida is. Jones will dispose of Machida rather easily and then everyone will get to see the premier fight at 205 and that is Jon Jones vs Rashad Evans. Like it or not and most people don't Rashad is Jones biggest competetion and when that fight happens we will find out who is the best lhw on the planet.

Prediction: correct Jones   wrong Decision  

Jones will win that. If Machida has a chance , it's because he will be able to step in quickly and hit jones. He has no other tool to counter Jones power, reach or wrestling ability and you really don't want Jones on top of you. Jones will just keep the distance, fight smart , avoid the fast attack of Machida and if this goes to clinch , he will use his power  to take him down.
