Also, I can't believe that Shogun gassed in the first round, unbelievable.

Not sure it was as much gassing and he was hurt. As he was getting back up in the first round Jones hit him with a - knee to the body, knee to the face, straight left, and finally a front kick. Shogun was never the same after that.

Dominate performance by Jones. At this point, the only people I see beating Jones is a large LHW (Forrest) and Heavyweights.

I think Jones might literally kill Forrest in the cage if they ever fought.

At LHW, I think Machida poses the only threat to him, and Silva if he moves up.

Yes, we did. My buddy caught it and pointed it out. We replayed it and you could definitely see "Shogun" tapping with his right-hand.

My first comment after seeing "Shogun" was "Wow... he looks out of shape."

I knew that bones had the skills to beat shogun but.I wasn't sure how he would react after a very short layoff combined with the big stage of a title fight.

He looked amazing.

Weak. No one cares about Tito anymore. Bader is a star in the making (even tho he just got worked by "Bones" Jones). Feed him (Bader) someone young or someone semi-challenging. Don't give him washed up has-beens.

Bad match up fight wise but it makes sense marketing wise. Tito is still a big name in the sport and if the UFC wants to get bader back in the lime light its a good call.

Still an easy fight for bader though and I am a Tito fan.

Agree with many on here...I don't think Jones will be losing hit title anytime soon. Would love to see a Silva vs. Jones fight someday!

He will lose, it's bound to happen, everyone loses. The LHW belt changes hands like crazy and all it will take is a bad matchup, he will probably move to heavyweight after a while anyway. The kid is crazy talented but everyone loses, thats the game of fighting. It better happen soon though if someone wants to get him because he is only going to get better and better.

Umm...have you not been watching UFC...pretty sure GSP and Silva haven't lost their titles in a while. Jones is heads and tails above everyone in light heavyweight....so that is why I say he won't lose for a while...not saying he will never lose...just not anytime in the near future... Who in LHW is gonna beat him? Seriously!
