They’ve fought once before and I don’t see them doing a rematch between two unranked guys.
It seems like they save those type of bouts for the upper echelon of the rankings.

Great main and i think Reyes will beat Jones if it was the same one that fought Santos but Jon is that good it win anyway,
Boring Comain but has to be their because valintina champ and her division is **** and imagen the nightmare if Kaitlen won
Adams vs Tafa someone probley going to get KTFO with both of them being kinda **** with power and that why it on the main card
Who doesnt want to see Ige, Bektic and what i think will be fight of the night
Derrick Lewis is funny to watch because he Fatass was like **** Jiu Jitsu and just stand up from like side contral Kimoras in his last fight
And Chito Vera is probley going to find a replacment

As for reyes, granted i actually rate reyes and he is a decent fighter in the light heavyweight division but he simply has not proved himself against worthy enough competition for anyone to claim hes the guy to dethrone Jones.... his most accomplished victory was an extremely controversial win against volkan ozedemir whos ranked 8th, in my opinion oezdemir won that fight but even so that is still reyes`s best victory in terms of rankings... and other than that all his wins have come against oppenents outside of the top 15....and against people that are way past their best. O.S.P a good name to have a W over but he is and was way past his best when reyes beat him, chris weidman`s chin is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard, land one punch on him and youve got him doing the chicken dance so again the name sounds good but again in reality isnt great. reyes is definitely up their in the rankings but at this point in his carear with the current names on his resume, he is definitely not proven enough to be spoken about as theguy whos going to beat Jon Jones, had reyes came in to this with a couple more victorys over some recent top contenders such as the likes of gustafsson and smith i would be a little more open to this being a challenge for jones but right now, this is only going one way,
Jon Jones taking reyes`s undefeated record in comfortable fashion.

Lewis vs. Latifi
Derrick Lewis, TKO, R1
Latifi has power but is small for lightheavy weight so going to heavyweight and taking on derrick lewis is honestly a very silly move, granted Latifi has good takedowns but lewis is coming off a win over ivanov whos bigger, stronger and better at takedowns than latifi so i can only see this going one way, latifi`s head being removed from his body from the power of the black beasts fists, and it will be fast. dont blink.

Don't worry, Fishy doesn't actually believe Jones will lose. He only said Jon looked like poop over Santos.
I don't think Fishrat has ever thought about what it would be like getting hit by a guy like Marreta.
Anyway I know fish will go with Jones because he's a bigger fan of him (He chose RDA over Chiesa for the same reason!) .
Everybody in the entire world knows Reye's only chance is to TKO/KO Jon Jones....he is not winning a decision without any knockdowns 🤣
The only thing Reyes has going for him is his size/strength(and rawness).
Jones is gonna use steroids for this guy like he has for everybody else.
Why root for the undefeated guy who shoulda lost to Volkan?
Almost seems clear that they want to use him as a nice name on Jones resume.

Jon Jones, DEC
Jon Jones will once again prove his is the greatest of all time. I haven't liked Dominick Reyes since he robbed a victory from Volkan Oezdemir. i am 100% confident we will hear Bruce Buffer shout AND STILLLLLLLLL
Tafa vs. Adams
Juan Adams, TKO, R2
Neither of these men are ever going to be title contenders so this match is just a slug fest. And i'm taking the taller Juan Adams, i feel his height and reach will be a problem for Tafa who got dropped hard in his last fight. I see this being a very boring fight until someone gets KO'd and that person to be KO'd is Justin Tafa.
Lewis vs. Latifi
Derrick Lewis, TKO, R1
Ilir Latifi was never any good at light heavyweight and he is going to be even worse at heavyweight. He is actually lucky he has been given Derrick Lewis as there are some people in the heavyweight division that would absolutely clean the octagon floor with Latifi. I still think Lewis will win this by KO in the first round however Latifi should count his blessings his first heavyweight match up wasn't against the likes of Ciryl Gane or Sergey Pavlovich who would retire him.

Three dollars, fifty cent. And I say 'I ain't givin you Tree Fiddy you godddamn Loch Ness monster! Get your own Goddamn money!

Bautista has no shame in losing to Sandhagen (corey was -570) and he beat Jin Soon Son ( I need to watch this fight) that went the distance with Yan,
both with solid affiliations
Bautista is a lil bigger and boy is he a finisher if he is better than you

Its a dangerous fight for both and I think it will be action packed.
