Didnt have to wait long for to see people act like Jones is scared of Machida... The guy who he finished...
You can understand why some fighters are not fan of rematches... especially when it was a decisive win... Jones and Anderson are not the only ones. Everyone is not Frankie Edgar.
The Finish in Jones/Machida came fast... but if you look at what Jones was able to do, it hard to see Machida beating him...
He took Lyoto down, landed a huge elbow, cutting him open. He then dropped him with a right then chocked him unconscious.
I still say Machida is Jones's biggest threat at LHW, but that isnt saying much.
If Jones plans to stay at LHW for a long time then he is going to have to rematch some of these guys. He has already beaten the best of the division, and they will earn their rematches.

Sounds good. Im sure the UFC will be looking for that as well. They know that Sonnen can sell. The hard part is convincing people he deserves the shot. He will have to beat a top LHW to convince most people. That will be difficult for him to do.
