I don't think he wants anything to do with Bones and I don't blame him. Machida is much harder to take down than Anderson and Bones did it.

Bones is an exciting fighter, still don't like him from interviews and such. Doesn't seem genuine to me but that doesn't really matter, dude fights well.

I thought it was interesting that two of the crackhead judges actually gave Jones the first round. That was definitely Machida's, he landed more strikes and far more power punches.

The takedown was huge for the fight.

Proud to be a fan of Lyoto's, he came out and took the fight to Jones looking to win. He did a great job but Jones was too much in that clinch, great fight by two amazing fighters.

Hearing could be a change in UFC 141 main event. Overeem may be out of the fight.

White denies Overeem is off the Lesnar card. But Alistair is on Mon.'s NSAC agenda. I've heard possibly in connection w/ prefight drug test.
If true, looks like Steroids finally caught up to Alistair.

Tito needs to hang it up, maybe it's me but it seems like he cant even take a small punch and he is stumbling around.

Nog vs Mir was sweet

And Jones is a bad ass! Rogan was getting annoying saying he looked worried in his corner after the first round and how he was being tested. I agree Lyoto was his toughest oppenent but Jones took one solid shot to the face and that never really bothered him and that was it, so im not sure where they come off saying he was worried and all that BS

I agree. Machida won the first round. I was surprised when I saw it scored 2-1 JBJ.

Tito will be pissing blood for a month. I told my buddy Lil Nog was going to take it to him, but I started to get worried as Nog was throwing a lot of punches. He looked gassed, but then landed a flurry of good shots to Tito's kidney/ribs.

I agree about Rogan to. I understand the point he was trying to make, as that was really the first time Jones was tested and a round was up in the air. Lyoto landed a good shot, but Jones ate it and his ability to escape out of trouble is the best. The amount of ways he can finish a fight is probably the most impressive asset of his. You never know what's coming from him.

Ouch! I kind of feel bad for Nog in a way not sure how much time he has left.

But i loved it when he snapped Sylvia's arm

I bet Tito can't sit up for a month after the beating his midsection took!

Big Nog's arm was sick!

Zombie was sweet!

Last nights card was amazing, Jones is gonna be the best in the world if not already p4p. Machida did well for one and a half rounds but Jones made adjustments and went to the clinch/take down. Machida was able to get up after one or two elbows but that seemed to change the fight quickly.

Jones could be the next Fedor, he's that good and doesn't fight cans.

I hope you aren't implying that's what Fedor did.

Jones is the future of the sport, he just beat a man who has been training martial arts for 30 years last night and overcame adversity when he was put on ice skates in the first round. He is just too physically gifted and explosive to lose to anyone who is in his weight class. Machida is a pretty big and strong LHW and he looked like a middle weight compared to Jones last night. Jones just gets it and uses his tools that god gave him very well. Last night may have been the only time he has ever lost a round.

Except the moron judges (2 of 3) gave Jones the first round.

Yeah that was crazy, but it didn't matter, hopefully we will see a rematch sometime next year after Jones wrecks Rashad and whoever else.
