Re: UFC 128: Shogun vs Jones
One of the best main cards in a while. Interested in all 5 fights. Some interesting ones in the undercard too.
I'm completely rooting for Shogun and hope he takes it but if I was forced to put money on it, I'd probably go with Jones. The key will be for Shogun to keep it standing and possibly get it into the later rounds.

Re: UFC 128: Shogun vs Jones
Shogon is pretty much the last of the old breed fighters who made a name dominating pride. I think this will complete the transition of old to new if Jon Jones wins and us "ol skool" MMA fans have to let go of the past.
We keep on standing up for the pride fighters and how dominant they are and how the new age UFC bobos never respect the past. Well the fighters we followed were good 2000-2006. Jon Jones will win and it's time to let go.
In my heart I'm cheering for Shogon, but I think it's time to let go and make way for new MMA.

Re: UFC 128: Shogun vs Jones
My moneys on Bones Jones disposing of Shogun with his uncanny reach or winning by decision. The guy just has an unfair advantage every time he steps into the octagon with this unorthodox reach of his. A reach that might eventually propel him to legendary status in this sport. I foresee a victory for JBJ, followed by a long drawn out reign as champion where you'll see him clean out the entire weight class ala GSP & Silva. I know I'm putting him in high regards here but the guy really appears to have all the God given tools to dominate for the next while...

Yes so true he's the last of the Pride Holdovers who are still doing well in current MMA. Because the old school one Rampage, Chuck, Fedor, Big Nog and Cro -cop are on the downside of there careers. And to Think Shogun is only 29 yrs old I swear if Shogun loses I will feel so bad, same feeling when I saw Mirko LHK by Gonzaga and Nog destroyed by Cain and Mir

One of the better main events in a while for the UFC.
Shogun has an impressive record but if I had to bet i'd go with Jones to pull of the win.
If Jones does win it will be interesting to see if he fights Evans

I'm pretty sure he takes the fight with Evans next and I'm pretty sure he hands Evans a loss...
