Makes a lot of sense to me especially if DC comes in as the SF hw champ. It will be easy to sell him dropping down and getting an immediate title shot. I say DC takes this 3 out of 4 times. Jones' wild striking is dangerous to anyone.

Looks like DC is gonna be spending the next 6 months dieting. Ain't shit to do in Strikeforce. I wonder how many more events they are gonna cancel.

I just don't have any idea why this fight is even being entertained.

Jon Jones has the luxury to throw those wild strikes because of his reach and his wrestling. If he were to throw a wild strike that left him open for a takedown, he knows he will be hard to take down and if he were to be taken down, he can get back up.

Prob is, it would be stupid to try that against DC, whose wrestling is perhaps the best in either LHW/HW division. DC is very agile and quick for a big dude and if JJ throws a wild strike of any kind, DC could make him pay for it by coming underneath with a TD.

It's an intriguing fight, and I would love to see it one day.

Looks like Cormier really wants the fight with Jones. That's cool with me but I'd prefer if they give the shot to Hendo first before he gets too old.

I would think he take his last SF fight at HW and work down to 205 at the same time. Zuffa just needs to find him an opponent already.

JJ will throw those wild strikes until it gets him KO'd ala Faber/Brown. Those kinds of mistakes change a person's carefree attitude in an instant. Half of JJ's threat is his wild unpredictability and my prediction is that he becomes much less dangerous and begins a conservatively fought .500 streak after his first loss.

A. Silva is also unpredictable and dangerous, but not wild. He is extremely calculating and lightning fast. I don't think JJ will ever have that.
