Rampage V Bones Jones
ad
Alright who ya got and why? The last I checked Page was a 6 to 1 underdog but the betting lines always fluctuate. If you think Page has a chance, theres money to be made!
Personally I see Bones winning by tko or unanimous decision.

Jones by TKO in the 3rd. If Page connects with anyone he has the power to take them out but over the last 3-4 years he has not improved in fact he has gotten worse and is now basically a boxer whereas in Pride he at least utilised wrestling & kickboxing. I have seen all of Pages fights including those prior to his Pride days although Jones will use his length, speed and explosiveness to pick him apart.Plus I want to see Jones vs Rashad more than a rematch between Page & Rashad.
no way love bones but page got something to prove and jones chin ant ben hit with that kind of power page is alot stronger but he got take fight to jones. jones so far in other fights hasnt shown much in knock out power
Power is only good if it lands and yes Jones has not put anyone to sleep with his strikes but its his speed and accuracy that gets the job done. If your getting hit on the chin with multiple shots it does not matter if they don't have the one punch stopping power as the volume and accumulation of strikes will get the job done here.
See what comes into my mind is yes Page hits hard, but he uses powerful uppercuts and hooks which shortens your reach. The problem is Bones has the longest reach in the entire UFC. I think that is probably going to be the biggest aspect of this fight. If Bones is smart he will use a bunch of kicks and jabs and we all know Page almost never checks kicks (see Griffin versus Jackson).
Im going to go with jones..rampage is getting to soft
AnonBones by tko on the second, cant see it going the distance. Maybe if rampage starts sleeping against his opponent it might go for longer lol.
sgtstedankoI personally gotta go with Rampage. For no other reason than because I like him better, and I usually go with the underdog anyway, no matter what:) But he is a movie star now, maybe he's getting soft. Honestly, I think that the longer the fight goes the better his chances get. You know he's got the heart to finish, and I don't think he'll tap. So, it should be good either way...
