DC vs Bones

[Kris P Lettus]

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9a/HQ_UFC_182.jpg/400px-HQ_UFC_182.jpg

For anyone who firsts opens this thread it was originally about UFC 178 Jones vs Gus. Gus then got hurt so UFC gave Daniel Cormier the title shot. At a press tour to promote the fight Cormier shoved Jones by the throat and Donnybrook ensued. Huge hype and buzz for this fight was quieted when Overeem hurt Jones in camp. Some feel that Gus should be given the shot in January but I am very pumped up for the DC match.

I'm just explaining this because the first few posts are about a completely different card than what this has become.

[whiteyford]

Fancy Gus in this but not enough to put money on it.

[Kris P Lettus]

I will be happy if Gus wins but really want Jones to win so DC can toss him around.

[Vietnamese Crippler]

Hungrily.

[Kris P Lettus]

Important

[Kris P Lettus]

Main card is fucking legit

Jones/Gus 2
Cruz/Mizugaki
Kennedy/Romero
McGregor/Poirier
Zingano/Nunes

[Kris P Lettus]

love this so much

[Innovator]

Nice

[Heisenberg]

Where does Gus fit into this once he gets back? Fight the loser of the current bout? Get so damn confused on that shit

Big Gus fan

[Jura]

Gus, as the number 1 contender is fighting for the belt not to fight Jones so if DC wins then that's his opponent unless Dana steps in for whatever reason or things happen that mess with the rankings like injuries or Chael Sonnen-esque match lobbying.

[Kris P Lettus]

Gus is still in the mix and depending on his layoff will prolly either get an immediate title shot or title eliminator. It really all depends on how much time he needs off and if there will be a Jones/DC rematch.

I'm gonna chalk it up to Jon Jones having bad breath and DC couldn't stand it.

[Kris P Lettus]

So pumped

[Kris P Lettus]

Jones needs to just embrace his full heel side.

[Kris P Lettus]

JBJ: "I am gonna do everything in my power to make sure you'll never forget the night you stepped into the octagon with me."

DC: "you know what's gonna be your sad reality? It's that everything in your power will not be enough. I'm still gonna beat you."

[Crimson]

I'm surprised Bones is this aggressive now. He would ignore the trash talk before, now he's going all in.
Yes he should defeniatly embrace full heel mode.

[Kris P Lettus]

Full heel

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Ru_-KdUelco" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[The Mask]

Nice. He should turn full heel, all this apologising is crap. He should have ran with it like sonnen would, buys would be through the roof.

That said, the height and reach difference makes it seem like this is jones' for the taking, which is a shame because I want Cormier to win

[OssMan]

For how long can people talk about this 10 second brawl

[Kris P Lettus]

Considering the fight hasn't happened yet I'd say two months.

Postponed till January.

BREAKING NEWS: Jones out, Mouse in, DC shouts, Gus pouts

[Clerk]

Jon Jones is the best fighter in the history of fighting period. He has never sufferd a defeat in his lifetime simply because his work ethic his tequnique and his tequnique. Jon Jones is gonna be what he sets out to be without a doubt ungodibly and all thus who look down on him he's tearing down there balcony.

[Kris P Lettus]

He does have a loss that is actually a direct result of his lack of technique.

[Big Vic]

Yeah but if you are going to have a loss that is the best way to lose.

[Kris P Lettus]

Nick Diaz vs Gomi

[Big Vic]

I have not seen that fight what happened?

[Clerk]

So Cormier beats Jon jones then gustaffson?

[Ruien]

Why is this match so far away?

[Ruien]

Nvm, injury. Bullcrap.

[Kris P Lettus]

Humble Rumble politely called out Gus today on Facebook. Make that fight the co-main of the January card.

*spooge*

[Jura]

I was going through my UFC archives and happened upon the Jon Jones vs Bader fight where he submitted Bader but on the replays it shows Jones saying something and then right after Bader taps. I wonder what he said.

he was saying how intimate and passionate fighting is

[Clerk]

DC beats JBJ. JBJ beats Gus then rematch against DC in november 2015

[Kris P Lettus]

If DC beats Jones then Gus will face DC

And Dc will lose to johnson

[Crimson]

Best promo for a fight ever.

[Kris P Lettus]

I agree. I haven't been as hyped for a fight since Rampage vs Liddell 2.

[OssMan]

Rooting for "Jones"

Pretty good heel it seems

Cormier seems like a "fake"

[Big Vic]

UFC needs more hype videos like that.

[Kris P Lettus]

The only one I can think of that was close to this was Jones/Rashad promo but this one is much better. It's funny that they used "hate me now" for that fight build up too, which they used for the shorter tv promo for this fight.

[Crimson]

Godamnit they took it down. Wanted to view it for the 10th time

[Kris P Lettus]

I saw it somewhere else. I will try to find it

[Innovator]

John Pollock on the Fight Network did an interview with both DC and Jones at the same time. Jones was getting mic'd up and for his test, he said, "AND STILLL, AND STILLL, AANNNND STILLLLL". Dude is embracing the heel.

[Big Vic]

Jon Jones: "I'm gonna destroy you DC.........I just wish I didn't have to do it in this stinkin, hill-billy infested town"

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOO!

[Next Big Thing]

I think Jones will use his reach well and pick him apart on the outside for a decision victory. I'm a fan of both guys though. Excited for this card and praying that the ppv slate for 2015 is better than what we got this year due to injuries, too many shows, etc...

Is it the only fight or are there other fights on "the card"

[Kris P Lettus]

There are 11 fights total. 2 internet prelims, 4 Fox sports 1 prelims, then 5 fights on the main card.

Look for Lombard to murder Burkman and Marquart vs Travarez should be a good one. Cowboy Cerrone vs Myles Jury would be fight of the night on any other card.

[The Mask]

OHHHHHHH shit. Spinning back fist KO.

[OssMan]

lmao this nigga comin out to Hot In Herre... Love this guy

[Jura]

Will Cormier be able to power through and overcome the eye pokes, razor sharp elbows, the hands constantly in the way and long leg kicks?

[Jura]

Eye poke.

[OssMan]

announcer mad annoying, keeps saying "Jon" and "DC" instead of their last names

[OssMan]

[OssMan]

Jon "Jones" Bones with 2 words for "DC" after that bout

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Jones taunting.

Think the ref took a punch by accident right at the end.

[OssMan]

:D Jones won.

I have no clue what DC was doing that final round. Round 4 I assumed he simply conceded and save some energy, figured he'd throw leather in 5 since he was getting the better end of those exchanges....

....instead he hugs him and tries for a single takedown for 5 minutes.

[Kris P Lettus]

I think it was his pride fuckking with him. He needs a talk with Marcellus Wallace.

He was obviously tired but the one doing the real holding was Jones. You can't take a dude down if he puts your arms above his and above your shoulder height. There was no leverage whatsoever for DC. DC felt that he needed more points and was hell bent on take downs which he could only muster one.

[Sepholio]

Jon Jones loves him some booger sugar.

[Big Vic]

Rematch is being set up :y:

[Clerk]

Jon Jones is the best. After he beats DC he'll fight Rumble I can't wait for that one it's going to be biblical.

[Savio]

Lol forgot Jon Jones gave him the DX suck it sign.
