He's arrogant and thinks he's the best fighter of all time already.
I think Rashad has a shot against him, there aren't too many better wrestlers in MMA, how does Jones use his striking if Rashad does a lay and pray for 5 rounds?!

I can't claim to have watched every interview or piece of the build up to this last fight, but it was an old favourite of mine Rampage who was coming across as a bit of nob, especially with his British team behind him. As Jones said, a bunch of yes men there to inflate his already large ego.
I agree that Evans has a good chance against Jones, he has the speed and the physical attributes to match him without a doubt, however with Jones' freakish reach and unorthodox striking, my money would be on him to keep Rashad off him and win a UD or late stoppage.
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.

Rampage has been a joke since he started training at the Wolfslair, he's only ever been in 1 good fight I can remember (vs Dan Henderson at UFC in London).
I'd be interested to see what Jones' chin is like aswel, he's never really been hit, once somebody figures out how to get in range he'll be screwed.
