I can't wait either! I'll be cage side! Literally!

I think this will be a good test for Jones, but he'll still walk through Machida.

The other fight I'm really looking forward to is Hominick vs. Sung Jung That should be a wicked fight. I'm disappointed that Rory MacDonald vs. Ebersole isn't happening, both of those guys are on a good winning streak...

Oh yeah definitely, I love watching his fights. Can't wait to see him finally take on Rashad Evans.

Jon Jones is on another level. Evans doesn't stand a chance.

IMO Evans has a better chance than anyone else in the LHW division. After watching his fight against Machida, I don't think Jones is quite as unbeatable as I previously thought. I think Machida might have won that fight if he hadn't lost so much blood from that cut. You need someone who can move in and out of Jones' range quickly and not let him get into the rhythm of his striking. Taking him down would work too if anyone can manage to do it. I think Shogun has a chance to beat Jones too with the proper strategy. If he uses a lot of his leg kicks to slow down Jones' striking (like he did in his first fight with Machida) he has a chance of winning.

Of course it's one thing for me to say all of these things are possible and another for someone to actually be able to execute them. One thing is for sure, any fight with Jon Jones is going to be an exciting one.

yeah after evans there really isnt a big threat for him waiting inline.. it looks like hendo is next and of course he has that one shot power but i think if the fight went more than a round jones would pick him apart and break him.... i would love to see that fight but at the same time i dont want to see it has dan has been on such a role it could get ugly for him...

besides the obvious silva matchup (which i think jones would get taken out with furious vengence) a sort of out of the box match up i think would work is have belfort go back to 205 to fight him... but yeah beyond that 205 is sort of slimming out as a stacked division vs what it was a few years back... jones could have the belt a while by looking at the current 205 roster..
