it went full billay a while back.
no fun to talk to people who dont know shit.
and IMO GSP is in NO way big enough to fuck with anderson, one thing tito was EVER right about.
if they wanted to acyually make a super fight that MADE SENSE it would be silva vs bones [Reply]

I wonder why Silva wouldn't want that :rolleyes he walks around thirty pounds, or more, more than gsp on a normal day. But within 10 I would say normally of Jones.
He is four inches taller than gsp, two shorter than bones.
The fight is more even size wise and even style wise IMO.
That would be a great fucking fight Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

Yeah, I think Jones/Silva would be a more exciting fight stylistically, but I think Silva knows he is out gunned in that fight where he does have most of the physical advantages in a GSP fight.
Personally I think Jones hands Silva his ass and needs to fight some HW's down the line if he really wants to make a mark. [Reply]

well jones is a little taller not too much heavier but is VERY lacking in the experience and pin point striking departments in comparison to silva.

With GSP the underdog I'd like to see the fight put in Canada to try to even things up a bit. [Reply]

I'd like to think so, as it would be the better fight, but no. Jones doesn't have nearly the PPV #s that GSP does. People absolutely despise Jones. [Reply]
That ****in sucks. Dana White is already talking shit about Jones for turning the fight down and I get that. I doubt Sonnen would have made weight in a week anyway. He said himself he was pretty heavy. [Reply]

Jones trained to strictly fight Henderson not Sonnen. There's certain strategies that's goes into game planning. If Jones took that not well trained and lost, it would be bad for him and not Sonnen or Dana White. I respect Jones and he's not going to jump in the octagon an chance his belt. [Reply]
