| Wow, that motherfucker can fight. He lost by DQ, yeah he should know the rules, but man that guy was fucking destroying Hamill. I don't know if there is another thread dedicated to Jones, but...FUCK! He was impressive! | |

| Yeah. The man is a beast. I will look at this loss like i look at Fedor's loss. Not really a loss at all. | |

| I've been a big fan of his for ages now. I said he could be the new Anderson Silva. I hope it doesn't affect his confidence though. |

| I hate the guy but hes got a bright future at LH. Hes the biggest guy and would have a significant size and reach advantage over anyone at LH and even some HW.
Here is a recent interview with him.
What career track were you on before MMA?Jones: I was studying criminal justice and I wanted to be a law enforcement officer in my hometown. Endicott, New York, man. I thought it would be so cool to be a hometown police officer.I've always been a person who tries to do the right thing in life, for the most part. I'm no angel, but I was always the kid who snitched on the kids who had pot. I don't want to offend the pot smokers out there, but I was kind of just a snitch. I was just down for people doing the right thing. My parents kind of raised me to be a good guy. | |

| Ha! THat's a funny interview.
Jones has got some crazy skills and his attitude was pretty good after losing the fight. I wonder how he does in practice with Evans and Jardine. I'd like to see him fight Luis Cane when he returns from his ass-kicking from Nog. | |

| I am waiting for combat to come back in here and say something about how I gave him a lot of shit for placing him in his top10 awhile back basing only on "potential" ..
He looked awesome. | |

| I can't get over his freakish 85" reach that's just crazy longer than either Klitschko brothers. |
