After Dana spent all that time going against Francis, calling the fight with Fury a gimmick, now he's trying to steal the idea for Jon. That's pathetic. Dana could be spending this time setting up a Francis vs Jon crossover fight instead.

Dana is a mixed bag. On the one hand he gives us a lot of the fights we want quickly, where boxing often struggles and fails, BUT Dana's ego has also ruined a lot of "could have been" situations in the history of MMA. Dana kept Fedor out of the UFC during his prime by being inflexible. He should have found a way to keep Francis. If you had to let him take breaks to box, whatever, do whatever it takes. I think Jones may fight Francis but it will be outside the UFC and it will be Dana's fault.

He offered Francis $8M guaranteed to fight Jones. Francis didn’t want to commit long term. So you move along. You don’t out your HE champ at risk for the guy who left and isn’t gonna be around. Not only a risk to your division but sets a precedent that guys can drag out a long negotiation, turn down an offer to be the highest paid in history, leave to a competitor and then still get the fight. There has to be some incentive to keep guys on with you and part of that is being able to offer them the fight they can’t get somewhere else. If you start giving guys the mega fight even if they jump ship it takes a ton of the incentive that exists for guys to stay signed with you because they know you’ll cave and they’ll get their way. That’s stupid business.

I'm honestly doubtful that Jon isn't at least a little bit scared. The guy's practically undefeated & would be risking his 0/untarnished legacy. He knows he's the GOAT but at the same time he's also disclosed his pre-fight partying ritual in the past. Who does that? Somebody with a neurotic personality. Francis doesn't have any of those fears bc he's seen as the baddest man & has the intimidation factor that Jon lacks. Jon even tried to size up Ciryl so he wouldn't be as intimidated. Either way, it's prob the coolest story for a fight I can think of.

Unless Francis goes back to UFC it isn’t happening. UFC genuinely has no reason to make that happen. PFL doesn’t bring any added business to them and they’re not setting a precedent that you can leave like he did and still get the fight.

As much as I want this fight to happen, I'm also content with speculation rather than the actual outcome of this highly anticipated fight. I'm a JJ fan all the way and I'm fearful of his chances against Francis, who I also support profusely. After watching Frances literally maul Stipe, he just induced fear in me. Jon must never overlook the menace brought by Stipe, the guy is methodical and meticulous, I've witnessed him absolutely outthink and outmaneuver Francis in their first bout. Francis is a completely different animal, that's not to suggest that I'm downplaying the pedigree of JJ, but he is in a different division now and one can argue that he hasn't as yet asserted his dominance given that he's only endured one fight. I'm subconsciously hoping that this fight never actually materializes, I don't think I can digest JJ's lose and if there's one man on earth that has the capacity to bring about that eventuality it's Francis.

Yeah Francis is ridiculous. I think in all likelihood Jones wins because it's Jones, we all know his resume and his skills. But Francis has that freak power. Which on its own isn't that bad with someone as skilled as Jon Jones, but the technique of Francis improved and it improved quickly. If you look at his last 3 fights with Jairzinho, Stipe, and Ciryl, he doesn't even look like the same fighter after each fight. I'd love to see this fight, I think it'd be much more technical than people think.

If you delve deeper into what Jon has said and his decisions on the fights he wants to take/refuse, he is actually sometimes afraid that some fighters might actually get a chance to beat him. He did not want to rematch Lyoto Machida and he does not like the idea of fighting anyone who's unorthodox. In fact, he did not even want to fight Chael Sonnen, which lead to one of the more well known rants by Dana White (UFC 151 Cancellation).
@blazzz13
@blazzz13 10 місяців тому
Jon had multiple opportunities to fight Francis, including before he was even champ. I remember Francis accepting the fight and Jon asking for money McGregor can only dream of in the UFC. If Jon really wanted the fight he would have taken it when Francis was still in the UFC. Instead he waited for Francis to leave and how quick he came out of his sabbatical to take on Gane. Either way if Francis lands the way Gus or Reyes did, it's light out for the juice GOAT. You can see the size difference- Francis is a natural heavyweight Jones is a blown up light heavy.

Jones was wise to re-sign with the UFC after Ngannou left. Now his real challenge will be to beat a 40 yr old Stipe, but I see he is still playing his delaying tactics for Stipe to get older.

He was really scared of Ngannou's size because he knows he wouldn't be able to execute his fight plan. Jons looked scared and seriously perturbed, and he has to be because he hasn't fought someone of Ngannou's power and size. Jones is very concerned about size: he doesn't beat fighters of the same reach and size. He would respect Stipe more now as he tamed Ngannou in the first fight at least. The only fighter I've seen not concerned about the opponents' size and power is prime Fedor, and that's why he's GOAT!

Jon hiding for 3 years to essentially gain 15-20 lbs tells me a completely different story. Well known he would walk around at 240 when he was in LHW. Weighs in at 248 for Ciryl Gane, probably 260 on fight night. Anyone who's ever tried to get bigger in a gym knows it wouldn't take them 3 years to gain 15-20 lbs and on top of that show up on fight night pudgy. Which tells you a lot of that gain wasn't lean muscle mass. Tells me that the man was terrified of Francis and wanted any reason to not fight him but didn't want the public to know.
