Jonathon Ellis Are u joking? Their first go around was arguably the greatest fight of all time. The promo’s would be epic. With DC commentating the fight .. it would make millions.
I did do some great investigative work. Go look at Dana's instagram account, he put a picture up of Jon Jones on his birthday that said ¨happy birthday Jon¨ a few months ago on his instagram. That means Jon is coming back. Call me crazy, but thats what it means. In Dana's world that means ¨congrats on making it back¨
Thought about this too. Comeback hype for Cain could create a PPV draw big enough to lure JJ in. And if JJ beats Cain, and DC beats Lesnar - the third fight @ HW makes more sense. DC would be an established HW at that point - and JJ would be the contender - unlike the stale LHW narrative of JJ being DC's kryptonite. Should be fun!
6:40 (quick rant ending at 7:01) lolwut? Did he just make a statement about fights being fixed? Because it sure does sound like he just described the commission telling him to take a dive sometimes and other times telling him that the other fighter will take a dive.
I think jons gonna fight at heavyweight when he comes back. There is no one else to beat at light hw. I say he comes back at fights stipe at hw. Basically to tell dc i can do anything you can do.
Nope he's jacked again tho pictures from beginning in Summer he was small and deflated and now he's all jacked standing next to Holly Holm in new photo's two months later yea Jones did not learn his lesson again
Yeah dude, it would be exciting. But it would also be extremely stupid of Daniel to take. Putting the Lesnar fight at risk would be totally foolish. He will beat Lesnar...and win or lose that fight, he is going to make a ton of money off of the PPV points. Unfortunately, Jones takes Cormier...even at HW. As a competitor and a man, we all know DC is itching to get back in there with Jones and get his win...and his pride back. But it is just foolish. Especially at this point in his career. Why risk life changing money in what will most likely be his retirement fight. It is the perfect situation. Retire with a big name win and a life changing fight purse. ..If he fought Jones and lost...Jones would take DC's pride, the titles, the Brock fight and the money. HOWEVER, DC is a proud guy and wants that Jones win more than antyhing. Sadly, he isn't going to beat him.
Chael is extremely articulate and entertaining. It’s good too see someone just saying exactly what is on their mind. Not only that the guy can trash talk and sell fights like crazy. I used to dislike the guy but the more I see him and hear him the more I like the guy.
Jon Jones put up training videos as early as American thanksgiving in November 2017 . There was another photo he put up in an octagon saying "I've been on the top of the mountain once I can climb it again". His agent thought the whole USADA saga will be done by March . The point is as long as USADA does not make the decision it's all speculation
u clown ass jokers never get tired? Anyonewho thinks jon cheated and tooksome illegal shit knowingly is a dumb , brainwashed media-puppet. To think that he would risk all that he worked for and put soo much time on for a drug that did not even effect him .. stupid to think that .
you forgot to mention brock lesnar and gsp as huge draws too....gsp was almost the first conor as far as a draw although nobody in the ufc can compare to conor. also after jones returns i believe his numbers will be on par with a mega star.
don’t let this distract you from the fact that brendan schaub was the FIRST person that hypothesized jon jones returning at MSG. give that man the credit where it’s due i don’t understand all the hate towards him
Blake Gibson i get what you’re saying but he hosts a podcast. so he has to talk a lot and when you talk as much as he does, you sometimes say some stupid stuff. i get what you’re saying tho.
Blake Gibson yh but people overreact to certain things he says now, like when he said kickboxing doesn't always transfer to mma striking. He was referring to Gokhan Saki, but everyone took it out of context and acted like he was talking about Israel adesanya. At least he gets more predictions right than most people
Chael Sonnen is a well spoken and very intelligent person. It is interesting to hear his insightful commentary and viewpoints concerning the UFC and its fighters. He should be sitting there next to Joe Rogan during fights.
I've seen some of Jon's recent footage, and it really looks to me he is bulking up and even focusing on his power strikes. I could see him fighting at HW and also i could see DC risking the Brock right and winner fight brock. It is very interesting atm.
If you can for HW, put him on the Lesnar/Cormier fight with Stipe or Cain. The substitutions there are equal if anyone falls out. LHW Yoel or Rockhold. They have both talked about moving up and giving the division the shot in the arm that it needs.
Why? Because its become more and more widely known that her numbers (ticket sales) were embellished to try and help promote her. How? By lying about the number of ticket sales she produced. Whom? By the media, Dana White, and possibly herself (however I doubt she had any idea that they were being embellished).
OG Gaming Thanks so much for the reply. I was really curios as to why Chael mentioned and emphasized that. Do you know if it was her ticket sales and PPV numbers? Is it possible to embellish PPV numbers or is that released independent of UFC?
Chael Sonnen is like the Tom Brady of MMA,The greatest to ever play the Game,☝️Both getting up there in age and still trying to capture that last Championship🤜🤛🏈😎
Ali, Mayweather, McGregor, and Tyson are the kings of selling a fight. The numbers speak for themselves. As much as it pains fans of their opponents, it cannot be denied by sheer factual/mathematical evidence.
Jones is that frustrating child that is very good at one thing and would rather be good at anything else in the world. Most of us would love being as good at anything as Jones is at winning MMA matches. Very frustrating guy.
Anthony "rumble" johnson or Gus I feel are the best options if he wants the tougher fights if it's not Daniel Luke rockhold is a wild card in this also if he truly wants to move up a weightclass it would be a GREAT move if Jon wants it think about it can sell DC and Luke were teammates most likely still REALLY close Jon would take the villain part obviously I don't think it would make Luke likeable cause that's honestly hard lol but it doesn't have to it makes its own drama which SELLS it arguably the easiest fight of the three mentioned above we don't know we never seen Luke at 205 and he is a HUGE middle weight
I think Jon and his team know that him constantly training in the time off helps him look good and dedicated to a fan base that he really wants and needs attention from. As you said, its the attention and adoration he enjoys, and after so many public fuck ups he knows hes gotta win em back.
Jones is like #56 Lawrence Taylor, greatest Linebacker in history. He used to tell HC Bill Parcels, "do you want me to play now or on Sunday?" He rarely practiced and went out on Sunday and killed!! I miss LT.
Ended up on this video by accident and figured I would listen for 1 MINUTE. That's it. And then turn the nonsense off... 4:54 seconds later... Ugh. The Chael effect. Excellent job!
Chael Sonnen I am a big fan of MMA and you in particular. I was shocked when I heard from some dude I don’t even know his name he said you are high school drop out. He was so confident about that he said you are uneducated person. I went ahead and researched that and found that you did graduate university. I don’t know if you even heard it or know the guy but I don’t like guys talking about something they don’t know. Would you say him what’s up?
My only issue is that Jon has not been handed a punishment by USADA at all. He hasn’t been handed an official suspension by USADA and this speculation that he’s gonna come back at UFC 230 doesn’t make sense to me. If he is to come back in November the integrity and accountability of both the UFC and USADA has to be called into question. Whether or not Jon took those supplements knowingly or not this is still his second USADA violation of a performance enhancing drug. If USADA wants to uphold its core values and beliefs they themselves need to come out with some sort of official statement regarding Jon’s current status. Because as of right now (in my opinion) this speculation that Jon Jones is going to compete in November is a serious stain on USADAs reputation. I’m not saying I don’t want to see Jon Jones compete again, but I do want to see him handed a formal punishment and him serve that punishment. I understand there may be some controversy as to why he tested positive at UFC 214 but the fact of the matter is that this is his second USADA violation and by their standards and their rules he should be suspended for a considerable amount of time
Jon (bones) Jones opponent is going to be anthony (rumble) Johnson at heavyweight. Rumble said he would be willing to return at heavyweight. This the way to set-up a heavyweight fight between the winner of DC vs Brock. The ufc is trying to banking on Jon winning. The only other person I could see him fighting is Cain. They still would want Jon to win.
Jon trains harder than he did 3-4 years ago, Jon in the off season in New York was out of shape and eating cheetos regularly. Since Jon has been inactive he has trained as a hobby, Jon did not powerlift years ago. On the contrary, Jon's teammates do commend Jon on his work ethic and they have recently been saying how Jon was always in the gym helping other guys now when years ago he did not.
I rewatched Jon Jones vs DC 1 and 2 and he did good the first Time they fought and was doing really good vs Jon Jones in the second fight I think it was even in the second fight or you could say DC was even winning against Jon Jones in the second fight until that last round when he got knocked out. I think DC vs Jon Jones 3 at HW for the HW belt would be a huge and epic fight and it forsure should happen!
The issue with Jon coming back at light heavyweight to fight for the interm title is that the only clear opponent is Gusstafson and the UFC would never risk Jon losing to the weakest draw and possibly the most difficult opponent in Guss. I say Jon should come back and fight at heavyweight for the interm title against Stipe, at the same time you have DC fight Brock, and then the winners face each other. And I would bet $ that it would be DC vs. Jon Jones as the biggest UFC heavyweight fight of all time. Any combination with those four guys is a great fight regardless of which two, hell I'd love to see Stipe take on Brock, especially since the storyline is there after Brock called Stipe a piece of SHIT.
You do DC vs Jones at HW in November and if he loses you square Jones vs AKA's actual heavyweight champ Cain Velazquez, who corners DC and who according to DC will be returning.
I honestly can't even get excited about Jon fighting anymore.. unless it was against Brock, but I'd like to see anyone fight Brock. I'd watch Conor fight Brock if it cost me $60 right this instant.
Because he is fighting in Chael's non sanctioned submission underground tournament and Chael is just building it up for us! Thank you.... Who's his opponent? Danis?
I wouldn't be shocked if Velazquez cuts down to 205, to take on Jones. Seriously, he can do it, he's not that big, and it would be perfect timing-wise (until Lesnar vs. Cormier has happened). Also, Cain is getting up there age-wise, losing weight would be good for his back/joints.
Chael Sonnen do you think Jon Jones took Cheque Drops that we’re tainted with t-bal?? Because taking CD is almost the same as t-bal. Also the CD’s have a half life of 3 hours and the t-bal probably had a 16 hour half life and Jon Jones and his team didn’t realize it.
The only two fights he’s had with people somewhat close to his size or his reach didn’t go very great. Gustafson and OSP....He dominated OSP but showed holes
There'll be a 3rd. They'll do it at heavyweight. If Jon wins he takes everything Daniel worked for in the blink of an eye. The irony in that whole story would write itself.
Steve W Yep, I agree completely. Jon is the cloud over his legacy. Jon will always be the "yeah but" on any future goat conversations about DC. Failed drug tests, or not. I'd put money on that fight happening before DC retires. DC is also a different animal with ko power at heavyweight. Then again, so may Jon.
I don’t care what Chael’s says Jon could be fighting a guy that’s unranked and I’ll still be hyped as fuck for his fight. I still think that Jon would do decent numbers because he’s a draw in the UFC (Next to Conor, Diaz, & Lesnar). Jon could be fighting a unranked opponent that’s not a big name and still sell decent amount of PPV & Ticket sells.
Tito Tapped.
Joseph Oliver you're damn right
I clearly felt a tap
Nah the fight was fixed
Tito Ortiz is a pussy.
yes he did
His opponent is probably going to be Alexander. It just makes sense since Alexander didn’t want to fight that lower ranked opponent at the last min.
Radical Reggie Let's hope.
majesticcabbage gus wont make the fight
Thats a hard low money fight, id love to see it but dont know if it majes enough $$$ to make sense
Jonathon Ellis
Are u joking? Their first go around was arguably the greatest fight of all time. The promo’s would be epic. With DC commentating the fight .. it would make millions.
Domonic Decoco im not doubting itd be a great fight nor that i wouldnt be excited, but for the average joe on the street, Gustafson wont do much.
UberChael KOed Jon Jones. True story
Jon Jones was so damaged by Chael his toe broke
I'm sure chaels done a few hit and runs while uberVLOGGIN
Dana 'NorthSouthWithMcgregor' White those lucky souls got to experience the incredible gift to humanity UberChael is
Jon vs stipe
Stop it Jon would hurt him standing up & tap him on the floor..
I hope so and winner get next title shot in 2019
Mike johnson I think Jon finishes him round 2.
I was about to comment this.
Dough Head 👏
I did do some great investigative work. Go look at Dana's instagram account, he put a picture up of Jon Jones on his birthday that said ¨happy birthday Jon¨ a few months ago on his instagram. That means Jon is coming back. Call me crazy, but thats what it means. In Dana's world that means ¨congrats on making it back¨
Jones vs Cain Valesquez?
Thought about this too. Comeback hype for Cain could create a PPV draw big enough to lure JJ in. And if JJ beats Cain, and DC beats Lesnar - the third fight @ HW makes more sense. DC would be an established HW at that point - and JJ would be the contender - unlike the stale LHW narrative of JJ being DC's kryptonite. Should be fun!
JJ as HW contender? nah
I think we would find the cure to cancer before we see a fight with cain
+daniel scanlan Except Cain got flatlined against JDS inside a minute and destroyed against Werdum. Cain can be beaten.
i wanna see Fedor vs Overeem and Kharitonov vs Velasquez!
6:40 (quick rant ending at 7:01) lolwut? Did he just make a statement about fights being fixed? Because it sure does sound like he just described the commission telling him to take a dive sometimes and other times telling him that the other fighter will take a dive.
Jones vs Stipe winner gets the winner of DC vs Lesnar
so you just mean Jones vs Stipe gets DC then right?
@@ryanbates4412 Yup. I already see Brock curled up in a ball as usual...
Why can't you people understand that DC is retiring after the Lesnar fight, so DC vs Jones 3 will never happen.
gordo66061 that would be amazing. If stipe won. The rematch with DC and stipe would be FUCKING HUGEEEEEEE
gordo66061 Stipe deserves a rematch first.
also, chael just indirectly told us how he knows jon was hiding under the octagon when USADA came looking lmao
He has directly told us that multiple times, and told many others that. Even had other people say "yeah he was" before.
Fictitious Code every video i saw he would say “my sources”. in this video im realizing that it’s other fighters in that gym that are chael’s sources
jazzkhan23 he has said that in many of videos not news story all
jazzkhan23 of course it is
Jed Hud his sources are also colby covington’s sources which i thought was interesting
I think jons gonna fight at heavyweight when he comes back. There is no one else to beat at light hw. I say he comes back at fights stipe at hw. Basically to tell dc i can do anything you can do.
He could easily lose to Stipe.
Agree but I think Smith should get the chance then after that heavyweight
David Ri he wouldn’t fight stipe it will be Alexander or dc why would he fight someone who just lossed
he'll fight at heavy weight to mask the body change difference without steroids. We will probably see a non jacked Jones for the first time.
Nope he's jacked again tho pictures from beginning in Summer he was small and deflated and now he's all jacked standing next to Holly Holm in new photo's two months later yea Jones did not learn his lesson again
Jon jones vs DC at heavyweight would be such an exciting fight!
Yeah dude, it would be exciting. But it would also be extremely stupid of Daniel to take. Putting the Lesnar fight at risk would be totally foolish. He will beat Lesnar...and win or lose that fight, he is going to make a ton of money off of the PPV points. Unfortunately, Jones takes Cormier...even at HW. As a competitor and a man, we all know DC is itching to get back in there with Jones and get his win...and his pride back. But it is just foolish. Especially at this point in his career. Why risk life changing money in what will most likely be his retirement fight. It is the perfect situation. Retire with a big name win and a life changing fight purse.
..If he fought Jones and lost...Jones would take DC's pride, the titles, the Brock fight and the money. HOWEVER, DC is a proud guy and wants that Jones win more than antyhing. Sadly, he isn't going to beat him.
I’m pretty sure dc has a broken hand right now.
Jones coming back to make Dc Cry again
The Animal after another year of being suspended for roids
twitch mania - But DC is gonna retire soon and I'm sure he wants retire as champ, and wants to cash out with Brock.
Chael is extremely articulate and entertaining. It’s good too see someone just saying exactly what is on their mind. Not only that the guy can trash talk and sell fights like crazy. I used to dislike the guy but the more I see him and hear him the more I like the guy.
Chael's first words was "business"
Jon vs. Stipe. Hell yes. Perfect.
Jon Jones is the fight I would pay most to see out of anybody on the planet...
#GOAT
love Chaels analysis on fights and mma... always breaking it down honestly with a bit of flair
I really enjoy these videos of chael talking.
Bones vs Gus?!?!?!? 🔴
JJ vs. DC 3 for the heavyweight title. Winner gets to fight Brock in 2019.
Razear Brock gets to fight winner...but Brock is a trash MMA fighter, but is a money fight!
Brock will be the easiest fight ever for them 🤣🤣🤣
On the money with that... But why should Broc have any say... What has he really done for a title shot ya know... Interesting
GADOOSHHH
Razear I still don’t get why anyone wants to see Jon vs dc 3, Jones will beat him again, he has his number
Jones vs Stipe would be a good fight, it would lead nicely onto DC's final match.
I genuinely don’t know what I want to see more bones gustaffson 2 or Jones DC 3 at heavyweight. What’s crazy is we might be able to see Both.
Let me offer you this
I think it would be amazing to see Jon Jones fight Cain Velasquez at heavyweight
Jon Jones put up training videos as early as American thanksgiving in November 2017 . There was another photo he put up in an octagon saying "I've been on the top of the mountain once I can climb it again". His agent thought the whole USADA saga will be done by March . The point is as long as USADA does not make the decision it's all speculation
Jon "attention is one hell of a drug" Jones.
VEGAN POWER so is cocaine
u clown ass jokers never get tired? Anyonewho thinks jon cheated and tooksome illegal shit knowingly is a dumb , brainwashed media-puppet. To think that he would risk all that he worked for and put soo much time on for a drug that did not even effect him .. stupid to think that .
you forgot to mention brock lesnar and gsp as huge draws too....gsp was almost the first conor as far as a draw although nobody in the ufc can compare to conor. also after jones returns i believe his numbers will be on par with a mega star.
I pray Chael will uppercut Brendan swab one day
Why?
Again I ask "Why" ?
The Brendan hate train is childish and unnecessary. Complete waste of energy
Used to like Shaub... all he does now is whinge
His pants are cutting off his blood to his brain
don’t let this distract you from the fact that brendan schaub was the FIRST person that hypothesized jon jones returning at MSG. give that man the credit where it’s due i don’t understand all the hate towards him
jazzkhan23 You really dont understand. Im a fan and enjoy his content but the dude says dumb shit and contradicts himself all the time.
Blake Gibson and constantly talks about himself and talks over his guests all the time, at least he used to, I quit watching over a year ago
Blake Gibson i get what you’re saying but he hosts a podcast. so he has to talk a lot and when you talk as much as he does, you sometimes say some stupid stuff. i get what you’re saying tho.
Blake Gibson yh but people overreact to certain things he says now, like when he said kickboxing doesn't always transfer to mma striking. He was referring to Gokhan Saki, but everyone took it out of context and acted like he was talking about Israel adesanya. At least he gets more predictions right than most people
jazzkhan23 he never has his own opinions he always changes his opinion next to Rogan also he can't hold an opinion for a month
brotha chael you deserve a oscar for this one.you are amazing brotha
Chael your lookin the best you have in years my man! Whoop fedor for me 👍🏻
How do i get to see these podcasts as a whole?
who are you talking to Chael?
Jon Jones vs. Stipe Miocic at UFC 230
What are these videos from? Podcast ?
Chael Sonnen is a well spoken and very intelligent person. It is interesting to hear his insightful commentary and viewpoints concerning the UFC and its fighters. He should be sitting there next to Joe Rogan during fights.
Cheal” im confronted with the evidence”Sonnen
I've seen some of Jon's recent footage, and it really looks to me he is bulking up and even focusing on his power strikes. I could see him fighting at HW and also i could see DC risking the Brock right and winner fight brock. It is very interesting atm.
If you can for HW, put him on the Lesnar/Cormier fight with Stipe or Cain. The substitutions there are equal if anyone falls out. LHW Yoel or Rockhold. They have both talked about moving up and giving the division the shot in the arm that it needs.
At 00:50 why is Chael saying Ronda's numbers were greatly embellished? Embellished how and by whom?
Why? Because its become more and more widely known that her numbers (ticket sales) were embellished to try and help promote her.
How? By lying about the number of ticket sales she produced.
Whom? By the media, Dana White, and possibly herself (however I doubt she had any idea that they were being embellished).
OG Gaming Thanks so much for the reply. I was really curios as to why Chael mentioned and emphasized that. Do you know if it was her ticket sales and PPV numbers? Is it possible to embellish PPV numbers or is that released independent of UFC?
Can someone help me out here. Chael said that Ronda’s ppv numbers were embellished??? Explain???
Chael Sonnen is like the Tom Brady of MMA,The greatest to ever play the Game,☝️Both getting up there in age and still trying to capture that last Championship🤜🤛🏈😎
Now and Later Absolutely egregious and false comparison.
Boyle Franks 😂😂😂
Ali, Mayweather, McGregor, and Tyson are the kings of selling a fight. The numbers speak for themselves. As much as it pains fans of their opponents, it cannot be denied by sheer factual/mathematical evidence.
good thing we got Chael for the brains of what goes on
Jones is that frustrating child that is very good at one thing and would rather be good at anything else in the world. Most of us would love being as good at anything as Jones is at winning MMA matches. Very frustrating guy.
Craig Hawks I don't wanna be a steroids abuser.
Your Nose at the risk of sounding like a dick, if I could take any kind of magic potion available...I’d do it. I don’t thumb my nose at him.
Your Nose what about being just a steroid user and not abuser ?
Mike Sthart he abuses them for competition. Steroid users do it out of competition.
"I can not also help but wonder, in the world of speculation..." Chael's redundancy of the day.
Anthony "rumble" johnson or Gus I feel are the best options if he wants the tougher fights if it's not Daniel Luke rockhold is a wild card in this also if he truly wants to move up a weightclass it would be a GREAT move if Jon wants it think about it can sell DC and Luke were teammates most likely still REALLY close Jon would take the villain part obviously I don't think it would make Luke likeable cause that's honestly hard lol but it doesn't have to it makes its own drama which SELLS it arguably the easiest fight of the three mentioned above we don't know we never seen Luke at 205 and he is a HUGE middle weight
1:02-1:06 what about Muhammad Ali, Manny Pacquiao, and roy Jones jr
I feel they might put him against Stipe..hoping for DC vs Jones for HW title next year...is Stipe suspended after that DC KO?
definetly not next year,its this year
Jones vs miocic or jones vs lesnar. I think dc is done, he said he'd get his tooth fixed after he retired so
nadnerb he's fighting Brock
jon jones yeah I can see it happening, you think dc is done then ?
nadnerb DC has legit said he is done in March, he wants 2 fights before then
swag lad who do u think he'll fight then
nadnerb jon isn’t fighting anyone. He is suspended for another year
I think Jon and his team know that him constantly training in the time off helps him look good and dedicated to a fan base that he really wants and needs attention from. As you said, its the attention and adoration he enjoys, and after so many public fuck ups he knows hes gotta win em back.
Jones is like #56 Lawrence Taylor, greatest Linebacker in history. He used to tell HC Bill Parcels, "do you want me to play now or on Sunday?" He rarely practiced and went out on Sunday and killed!! I miss LT.
Dude, it's the OTHER camera that's on. In this clip too.
Morning chael
Unky Youre Awsome AF!
Ended up on this video by accident and figured I would listen for 1 MINUTE. That's it. And then turn the nonsense off... 4:54 seconds later... Ugh. The Chael effect. Excellent job!
water spill or mic shadow?
Chael that ear is looking overworked
If its the main event at msg i think it may be miocic. Its probably the only fight Stipe would take that isn't for a title fight imo.
Chael Sonnen I am a big fan of MMA and you in particular. I was shocked when I heard from some dude I don’t even know his name he said you are high school drop out. He was so confident about that he said you are uneducated person. I went ahead and researched that and found that you did graduate university. I don’t know if you even heard it or know the guy but I don’t like guys talking about something they don’t know. Would you say him what’s up?
Chael for president 2020
i thought the microphone shadow was chael sweating glad i figured out it wasn't lmfao
My only issue is that Jon has not been handed a punishment by USADA at all. He hasn’t been handed an official suspension by USADA and this speculation that he’s gonna come back at UFC 230 doesn’t make sense to me. If he is to come back in November the integrity and accountability of both the UFC and USADA has to be called into question. Whether or not Jon took those supplements knowingly or not this is still his second USADA violation of a performance enhancing drug. If USADA wants to uphold its core values and beliefs they themselves need to come out with some sort of official statement regarding Jon’s current status. Because as of right now (in my opinion) this speculation that Jon Jones is going to compete in November is a serious stain on USADAs reputation. I’m not saying I don’t want to see Jon Jones compete again, but I do want to see him handed a formal punishment and him serve that punishment. I understand there may be some controversy as to why he tested positive at UFC 214 but the fact of the matter is that this is his second USADA violation and by their standards and their rules he should be suspended for a considerable amount of time
I would LOVE JJ vs DC at HW at MSG
Chael is the best.
Only problem I see with this is Jon said he would never fight in NY because state taxes would take too much of his money and he is right.
Jon (bones) Jones opponent is going to be anthony (rumble) Johnson at heavyweight. Rumble said he would be willing to return at heavyweight. This the way to set-up a heavyweight fight between the winner of DC vs Brock. The ufc is trying to banking on Jon winning. The only other person I could see him fighting is Cain. They still would want Jon to win.
Jon trains harder than he did 3-4 years ago, Jon in the off season in New York was out of shape and eating cheetos regularly. Since Jon has been inactive he has trained as a hobby, Jon did not powerlift years ago. On the contrary, Jon's teammates do commend Jon on his work ethic and they have recently been saying how Jon was always in the gym helping other guys now when years ago he did not.
I rewatched Jon Jones vs DC 1 and 2 and he did good the first Time they fought and was doing really good vs Jon Jones in the second fight I think it was even in the second fight or you could say DC was even winning against Jon Jones in the second fight until that last round when he got knocked out. I think DC vs Jon Jones 3 at HW for the HW belt would be a huge and epic fight and it forsure should happen!
Jon Jones knows people who can repeatedly get him out of trouble and not take responsibility for any of his actions. That is what he knows.
Chael is the best, insanely good at all this commentary, but he needs to accept that he has emotions like everyone else, and stop trying to deny that.
CHael CALLED IT
The shadow of the mic always makes it look like Chanel spilled water on his shirt ha
The issue with Jon coming back at light heavyweight to fight for the interm title is that the only clear opponent is Gusstafson and the UFC would never risk Jon losing to the weakest draw and possibly the most difficult opponent in Guss. I say Jon should come back and fight at heavyweight for the interm title against Stipe, at the same time you have DC fight Brock, and then the winners face each other.

Any combination with those four guys is a great fight regardless of which two, hell I'd love to see Stipe take on Brock, especially since the storyline is there after Brock called Stipe a piece of SHIT.
Chael really goes at Jon here... perhaps ghosts of an ass whooping past
I hope
You do DC vs Jones at HW in November and if he loses you square Jones vs AKA's actual heavyweight champ Cain Velazquez, who corners DC and who according to DC will be returning.
I honestly can't even get excited about Jon fighting anymore.. unless it was against Brock, but I'd like to see anyone fight Brock. I'd watch Conor fight Brock if it cost me $60 right this instant.
conor would ko him
Because he is fighting in Chael's non sanctioned submission underground tournament and Chael is just building it up for us! Thank you.... Who's his opponent? Danis?
If I was Dana I wouldn't let Jones headline a card for at least two or three fights. Jones really has to prove himself in my book.
Bones vs Rumble!! Two killers come back and fight each other on the same night. OMG! 👊🏽
I wouldn't be shocked if Velazquez cuts down to 205, to take on Jones. Seriously, he can do it, he's not that big, and it would be perfect timing-wise (until Lesnar vs. Cormier has happened).
Also, Cain is getting up there age-wise, losing weight would be good for his back/joints.
I guess Jon Jones does know something that we all don't, namely why he does not need to train as much as others.
If Only Chael survived that onslaught Bones gave him, Chael would've been the LHW champ.
At 3:47 he says some real shit jon is a natural but hes his own biggest enemy
The return of Rumble Johnson!!!! JONES VS JOHNSON
Why not Jones and Stipe?
No one can bullshit like Chael. Best of all time.
The shadow the microphone casts on Chael's shirt always make it looks like he only podcasts wearing wet shirts.
So all of a sudden his ban is unbanned now
Can UFC say Triple Threat Match? It's already become the WWE over there. They might as well go full sports/entertainment.
Chael Sonnen do you think Jon Jones took Cheque Drops that we’re tainted with t-bal?? Because taking CD is almost the same as t-bal. Also the CD’s have a half life of 3 hours and the t-bal probably had a 16 hour half life and Jon Jones and his team didn’t realize it.
Chael "prediction god" Sonnen
Give Brock to DC, Strip the LHW belt from DC, put Gus and Jon against each other for the LHW title, then winner goes up to HW to fight DC or Brock.
The only two fights he’s had with people somewhat close to his size or his reach didn’t go very great. Gustafson and OSP....He dominated OSP but showed holes

There'll be a 3rd. They'll do it at heavyweight. If Jon wins he takes everything Daniel worked for in the blink of an eye. The irony in that whole story would write itself.
Steve W Yep, I agree completely. Jon is the cloud over his legacy. Jon will always be the "yeah but" on any future goat conversations about DC. Failed drug tests, or not. I'd put money on that fight happening before DC retires. DC is also a different animal with ko power at heavyweight. Then again, so may Jon.
Also, I thought DC's whole plan was to fight at 205 one more time, before going back to heavyweight for Brock. Did that officially change?
DC vs. Jones 3...that's the great business the UFC could use right now!
I will be glad when Chael finishes with this HW tournament so he can go back to being a MW. He's infinitely more attractive at MW then HW.
I don’t care what Chael’s says Jon could be fighting a guy that’s unranked and I’ll still be hyped as fuck for his fight. I still think that Jon would do decent numbers because he’s a draw in the UFC (Next to Conor, Diaz, & Lesnar). Jon could be fighting a unranked opponent that’s not a big name and still sell decent amount of PPV & Ticket sells.
