HBB1:


If you have seen Jones fight, you know he is not someone you just jump at-- he is a beast.
Very calculated and rounded ( striking and grappling)

I am not sure of Adesanya's grappling skills-- they are a bit suspect!
His grappling skills are superb yes, but His grappling is not so convincing

Jones however has a wrestling background. I think he has only been taken to the ground once in his career ( Cormier Vs Jones 2).
That's a very big achievement.

But I would like to see it sha, but remember if Silva (at his age) could push him that far, how much much Jon 'Bones' Jones!

Whittaker also had a wrestling background, his grappling skills were supposedly better than Izzy's. He was supposedly a tougher beast. But Izzy has put all these postulations to the dustbin.

One thing I know is that Izzy appears to be motivated more to overcome his supposed shortcomings as evidenced in his matches against Gastellum and Rob. The guy's winning mentality is second to none. If he really sees Jon Jon as a challenge, I bet you in a few years, he'll Bleep JJ up.

And your reference to Izzy's match against Anderson is not entirely correct. It was obvious Izzy was showing Anderson, his mentor, a lot of respect. He was actually toying with Silva most of the match.

Even lots more grin grin grin. Jons is scary.

I hope we are wrong, but the same way they pushed Atiku, they are pushing Adesanya.

Gustafson that gave him issues the first time, he beat like a baby the second--Jones is a Killer!

With the way this guy dey vex, i just hope he will not eventually beat one oyinbo to coma/ death grin grin grin, Anyways.....We are proud of you bro......ikunle abiamo ooo, i didn't even check the first picture wella before......Enu ti baje o jeesu....Ifolenu to bad.. I think they should be asking this guy's opponents before the start of each fight if they want to walk away or sign his death warrant if he wants to stay, because the way i am seeing this guy, he will eventually beat someone to coma/death.

grin

Hunger don panel beat the Nigerian guy.

So he wants to change destiny once and for all

Like Gnabry plays for Germany instead of Ivory Coast.

African governments chicken out when it's time to sponsor their own.
