It's scary when you think about how good Jon Jones can get with more experience considering he's still relatively early in his MMA career. If anyone has a chance to be as dominant as Anderson Silva has been, it is definitely him. He does seem to come off as really "fake" and arrogant, which I don't like, but as a fighter he is simply amazing.

Yeah, Machida had Jones in the first round, I was hoping he'd pull it out too. I worry about GSP, I think he might be on the downhill with his injury.

Definitely agree with you on Jones, he has incredible potential. I'm not sure about him as a person. I thought he seemed awesome, but the DUI certainly didn't help...

I'm interested in seeing how GSP does coming back from his injury as well.

Like I posted in here earlier, he doesn't carry himself like a respected champion should. He seems to be the only current UFC champion with these issues. He's making the news for getting his DUI where as another rising star in JDS is doing the same for bringing a poor kid from Brazil to watch his fight in the US. I may like Jones fighting style better, but I respect JDS as a champion much more.
