That may be a good first fight at HW for Jones...
He should beat Mitrione handily, given the right gameplan...
Jones wrestling and speed would prove to be the difference. there is a huge gap there...
Matt is very strong, hits very hard, and has a phenomenal chin.
Throwing Jones against a top10 HW right away would not be a good idea, he beats anybody outside of the top5 imo. But against any top10 HW it would be a very big challenge, that he could easily lose. Best start him out against someone like Mitrione, Kongo, or Barry.
Although he does have some work to do at LHW before that.
I see him fighting Hendo and Sonnen next. As well as rematching one of his former opponents... depending on how their fights turn out.... Then he could possibly fight Goose or Glover as well if they can earn their shot...

How far away are we from Noob Jacking "Jon Jones is a _____" or "You won't believe the dumb shit Jones said today" threads. I've had my fill of people's opinions on him and his idiotic statements. I've equally had my fill of him making the idiotic statements. Wake me up when there's a jones thread that simply deals with his next fight. Or dont. Yea dont, ill just watch the fight and then mute the interview after. Thanks.

Jones has about just as much ork to do in 205 as anderson does @ 185 IMO. you know silva is going to destroy anyone he faces at 185, its getting like that with jones @ 205. i dont like seeing jones just crush everyone who looks a whole weight class below him when they fight. Go to HW jones.
