Tito has a very good chance of winning. I hope he wins in impressive fashion.
and I think Machida will humble Bones.

well somebody has to....
I used to be a big fan. But his ego has grown considerably.
But I say everyone will 'humble' Jones...so what the f*** do I know, right?

Dude you don't have to take it so personally. I'm just saying that everyone, not just you says the same thing now.

I'm hoping for a big win by Machida. Admittedly, he is my favorite fighter but matchups make fights and people arent giving him the respect he deserves here. This WILL BE a fight

Jonny Jones is just a different kind of animal. I truly believe the only person who can beat him is himself. He is definitely the most talented fighter I have ever seen.

I'm a big Jones supporter, but this is pretty much Machida's last chance at a second title reign. We all know Dana isn't Machida's biggest fan, and Jones has a bright future ahead of him anyway. So with that being said, Lyoto must win! |

I don't know what this "ego" Jon Jones has, people just want to hate, he seems a respectful nice guy and has never really said anything in front of the media that would make me think otherwise. He has got confidence, which isn't always a bad thing. And he deserves to be confident, he's done a lot in a short time. I'm very pro Jon Jones.
Though I'm more of a Machida fan and would prefer for him to win, that being said I'm happy for Jon Jones to get a win as well, it's a win/win for me.

Not a fan of Jon Jones, but I don't see Machida beating him.
Maybe it's just me buying into the Rashad 2.0 hype, but I truly believe he can beat Jones. We'll see how he does against Phil Davis.

Its one of those fights where i want one fighter to win badly (Machida) but i think the other guy will win. (Jones)
That said, to write Machida off would be foolish and I'll be supporting him.

It is funny because just two years ago Machida seemed as untouchable as Jones seems now....
If Machida can't beat Jones I see Jones holding the title for a very long time. I feel this is the perfect fight for Machida. But who knows...

I realize Jones is a very dangerous and talented fighter, but I think Machida will win this one. Machida is my pick. I don't know how he'll win or which round or whatever, I just think he'll pull it off.
