Jones gameplans are good.
But IDK how anyone watches the last few years of Jones at LHW and has Gane as underdog.
Jones is a point fighter, but so is Gane. So if they're going by likelihood of a decision I still don't see how you put the money on Jones as a green HW with ring rust.

I miss the Jon Jones who tore through the LHW division on his way to the title and first few defenses.

Dude was never that great. One of the most over-hyped fighters ever.
That said, watching embedded and didn't realize how fucking fat Jon is now. Holy fuck, he looks almost totally different to me.

Yeah but if you checked the countdown the strength is there. He hit 315 on bench for reps with an 84 inch reach. Pretty impressive at his age being new to heavy weight training and having all genetic disadvantages to doing bench press to begin with.
If you watch the Countdown you can see how people are putting money on Jones. I still wouldn't. But I see it now. His camp was no joke and his sparring partners were serious sluggers.

doing the conor super juice while out of testing while rehabbing his acl?
agree, but the ufc hypes the shit out of him. they would probably still put him on euro cards with another 3 losses. many comments pointed out they didn't cut sam avery until he went 0-8-1

Probably. Don't have the article offhand, but there's a system USADA created for use of a banned substance while out of competition. All you have to do is file paperwork on what you took now. Sort of defeats the whole purpose of being able to detect going back a year or years if someone ever used X Y Z. But that's the way the system is now, and fighters would be dumb not to take advantage of it if they have injuries or just want an edge.
