Bro who actually thought Gus was going to pose a problem; I didn't even have to guess here
JJ is gifted, I saw 1st round how he stopped that takedown attempt and elbow'd ole boy his confidence was growing and that was the beginning of the end
Smart how he targeted that leg bcuz he could've kept kicking at it and winning a la Jose Aldo
There's no one else at 205 other than DC whom already lost 2x even to the point where he was legit crying lol
Jones is just gifted, some ppl just are born with the right talent and with the right drive they reach their potential
That said, can't believe Anderson Silva and Jones both used PEDs goes to show how helpful PEDs are for recovery and training
Just goes to show how competitive it is at that level

He beat DC twice at 205; nothing to prove going up

If he has nothing to prove at 205, why is he calling out Cormier for 205?
Heavyweight is Cormier's natural weight class and he's the current heavyweight champ.

I predicted Jones would win this fight. Even called the round and that it would be by TKO due to strikes on the ground. I just call 'em as I see 'em.

Reminds me of mayweather in boxing. Very tactical. Whereas Cyborg fights on her instincts once she gets clipped.

Jones is still a cheat and i hate seeing him be successful. But I blame the UFC and others more than Jones.

gus doesnt have enough weapons.. simple as that.
you need to have a kicking game and a grappling game thats good enough to threat jones.
you cant just have that boxing attack the whole time.
Sad to see that happen

I can't think of an interesting fight for Jones at 205 other than DC
Look at the top 10, nobody really can challenge him

They call it a kimura but its not.
And here is a gif Phil Davis with the same hammer lock just not as horrific:

The thing is the labs that do the tests test beyond the ranges that WADA even calls for. Typically you only test to nanograms but in an effort for these private labs to try and stand out amongst each other they say "oh yeah well we can test for even smaller amounts!" But the amounts are so tiny they are 100% not giving any performance enhancing benefits IF they're even there at all. There's a +/- range of statistical error. The amount Jon tested positive for isn't even sanctionable by WADA. And the microdosing argument doesn't make sense for what he tested for.
There's more to it then that but against forum rules to discuss in depth.
Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

Imagine this guy crying for a third time over losing to the GOAT and having the man he hates more than anything take everything from him. If DC is smart he won't take this fight no matter how much money the UFC offers him. I don't care if they give him 15 mil it won't be worth the permanent mental trauma he will suffer for the rest of his life.
