Dana confirmed it in the post-show press conference last night and "rumours are" it'll be UFC 149 in Calgary. Wonder if Hendo has a key for that lame ass riddle.

After that fight, I think it's safe to assume that Hendo is going to get wrecked. He's more Rampage than Evans in terms of speed and agility. Jones isn't going to go out and brawl with Hendo like Shogun did and all Hendo is going to do is try to walk Jones down in hopes of landing an H-Bomb which might be tough considering the fact that Jones utilizes his reach better than anyone in the UFC.

That being said, when they fight, the crowd is going to go ape shit for Hendo and boo the hell out of Jones worst than anything we've heard yet.

He'll put up a better fight than Shad did for a coupla rds.

I think Hendo will be a much bigger challenge for Jones than anyone else has been. He is capable of getting inside and finding his range, unlike Rashad. He's beaten Fedor, so.... you've got to take him seriously.

Jones will work him on the ground probably. Hendo's wrestling is great in certain areas, but woefully incomplete. Plus Hendo's got an indestructible head, so expect Bones to work the legs and body more.

if anyone is going to beat jones it'll be hendo, sweet ko power, pretty unorthodox in his striking style, pretty good at getting into scrappy brawls. but then he has 71 inch reach to jones' 84 so chances are he's just going to get raped like everyone else.

Yeah..Rashad did shit. Hendo will def put up a better fight. He has a simple gameplan but I think he's stubborn, as even if Bones lands some early shots due to his reach, I think Hendo will keep trying to take him down or get inside for his right hand.

I want someone to beat Jones, ive cheered for Rampage,Machida,Evans, Jon Jones is super talented and crazy good, but just like GSP and Anderson Silva, i want him to get beat, nobody likes an unbeatable champion (unless its JDS :D)
