Love Rogan but he really thinks every fighter that's ever stepped foot inside the octagon is in the conversation of GOAT
My favorite is "this is the most important matchup in UFC history"

Also just to throw it out there, when Chael beat dude down for 4.5 rounds, it definitely left me shook
Both dudes was on something so let's throw that point out the window

I guess you missed the point. I mentioned a loss. I'm not trying to make him out to be invincible.
Everything I said is clear as day. Anderson had a phenomenal run. And did fight at 2 weight classes.
Jones IMO has already fought better comp.
But Anderson has 12 years on Jones. Who knows where Jones will be at that stage in his career.
There are plenty of dudes who looked "unbeatable" at one point that got beat.

Point being Silva was losing to terrible fighters at the stage of his career Jones is at now. Jones can only improve...

Well yeah, he didn't start out as a beast. Kinda nice to see when a fighter struggles early in their career and becomes a great later on.

To bring up an earlier point, it really amazes me that JBJ isn't a black belt (or any belt for that matter) in any major martial art.

Yessir, finally someone with a sense of reality. First 3 rds were very close. I had 1 to Jones, 2 and 3 to Cormier and 4 to Jones, came down to 5 and Jones literally held him against the cage the entire round, which is why Cormier just complained about Herb Dean reffing the rematch.
Cormier learned from that fight and is gonna be super motivated in this one. But let's discredit all that and his recent fights and pretend like Jones problems couldn't be an issue going into the rematch. He's lifting 405 lbs on the deadlift tho so its gonna help him win this one easier...
Or Jones comes back a monster and whoops Cormier easily...we shall see lol

Just rewatched the fight. I had jones with 1,3,4,5. Not even a question. All three judges scored it that way.
4 rounds to 1. More significant strikes. 3 takedowns to 1 on an Olympic wrestler.
Yeah that fight wasn't even close
DC successfully pushed his pace the second round and that's it.

Exactly, I didn't view it as a close fight. Jones basically played the big brother roleJust rewatched the fight. I had jones with 1,3,4,5. Not even a question. All three judges scored it that way.

DC was running through dudes at HW not so long ago. He definitely could have made his way to a title shot but he didn't want to fight Cain.
Jon was the first person to impose himself on DC so i believe he would fair very well at HW.
The landscape in that division hasn't changed much in recent years. Everyone at the top of the division is aging and accumulating mileage so it's the perfect storm for him to move up soon and become a 2 division champion.

DC also lost to the dude Cael Sanderson, current wrestling coach of my Nittany Lions

I believe Bones can become the clear GOAT with this second run.

Given Jones' last few years, I don't think "Jones can only improve" is a given
Point being, time will reveal.

Hearing DC might be pulling out with an injury 
Jon finally fights rumble or do they drop the fight and make it a free card with mighty mouse leading it.

Poor mighty mouse.. Got more twitch viewers than people who watch him fight
he seems like a real cool cat, though, real down to earth and just a regular bro who can fight really good.

I remember I would watch penn fights at my friends house...we would be going nuts...but he always seemed to lose big ones. Still my fav tho.Nah he won the first with a RNC, got TKO'd in the second, and KO'd Hughes 29 seconds into the third fight

MM needs to move up and challenge mark hunt or something to even get me to think about purchasing his fight
