http://mmajunkie.com/news/17230/lit...n-vera-vs-jon-jones-targeted-for-march-31.mma Good fight for Jones. A win over Vera and he's right at the top at 205. TFK
great fight for Jones. Horrible fight for Vera. Vera beat Randy, but got the loss, now he is going to get freight trained by a very hungry and now pissed off Jones. Vera might be ruined after this fight....seriously. I would love to see Jones call out Randy after he beats Vera. great fight for the fans:cheer:
Vera is no helpless wrestler like Hamill. Jones is not running through Vera like he did Hamill. Vera can win this fight. GREAT match though, it's really a good styles clash.
Good LITMUS Test for Bones Jones...Vera's a Bridesmaid but NEVER a Bride, so if Jones is as Good as we THINK he is, he'll BEAT Vera...Let's Hope So, Cause REED's Been Looking for an MMA BROTHER to Roll w/for AWHILE Now... REEDray:
Sure, REED Can, but he's GOTTA have a BROTHER on the Roster Too...& it CAN'T B an Already ESTABLISHED Brother like Anderson Silva, Rampage or Rashad...Anthony Johnson's Still a Candidate, but Jon Jones has Moved to the FRONT of REED's "Black Pack"... REED:hammert:
Just curious REED, one of my good friends I watch boxing and MMA with is a brother. He was saying something similar about needing a brother in mma to root for. He loves Rampage and is jumping on the Jones bandwagon for sure. I mentioned Anderson, and he said its hard for him to think of Silva as a "brother". He said "Of course he has the skin color, I just don't look at him as a brother really." What say you?:dunno: And Z, I agree, Vera is a class above Hamil, no doubt. I just think Jones is that good. I might be wrong, have been before, but this guy has IT. I think he runs Vera down and wins by tko GNP. And I like Vera.::
Clearly, Anderson Silva is "Black", Meaning his Ancestry is of AFRICAN Descent...But Being a "Brother" is TYPICALLY an African-AMERICAN Thing, for Better or Worse...That DOESN'T Necessarily Disqualify Silva, but REED Can See why your Friend has Reservations...The LANGUAGE Barrier is the Biggest Obstacle...A "Brother" COULDN'T Even have a MEANINGFUL Conversation w/Silva::... Ditto for Tito Trinidad who was Clearly of African Descent, yet NEVER Registered on that "Brother" Scale.... REED Certainly WON'T Watch MMA Any MORE or LESS if a Brother DOESN'T Surface, but it'd just B NICE to have Some More on the ELITE Level...Just for the Sake of FAMILIARITY...But for Bandwagon Purposes, REED CAN'T Allow Himself to Latch Onto ESTABLISHED Guys like Rampage or Rashad...REED Looooooooooooooooves Rampage (Who is the QUINTESSENTIAL "Brother"), but he was ALREADY a STAR B 4 REED Took Notice... Bones Jones & Rumble Johnson R GREAT Candidates, Since REED Took Notice of them PRIOR to Receiving Any Hype... REED:hammert:
Hes a perfect candidate REED. Obviously for being Black, but he does have the goods. He is one that I have been watching for a while. Very exciting fighter.
good stuff, thanks for the education Brother REED.:kidcool: and Bob is right, Jones is the goods, the guy will be champ some day, believe this.
REED, what about Rogers? Out of the more unknown brothers, he is one of my favourites for sure. Jones looks good too. But Rogers is for real, gave Fedor a proper fight, not many other people can say that.
I agree, Rogers is going to be a world champion HW sometime. I wouldn't be suprised if Dana doesn't make a strong play for Rogers soon as well. Rogers/Lesnar anyone? Great fight.:cheer:
Rogers is a tough fight for any HW for sure. Lets just hope that Fedor didn't steal his soul like he does to everyone else.ray:
What was the guy in Mortal Kombat who stole your soul after winning? Shang Tsung, I think? Fedor vs Shang Tsung for all the souls in the universe!!!!:crafty:
REED Likes what he's Seen from Brett Rogers Thus Far & ESPECIALLY his Rags to Riches Story...REED just DOESN'T See Much Room for GROWTH There, Honestly...The Fedor LOSS will B Telling...It's Probably the 1st Time Rogers has EVER Been HANDLED in his ENTIRE Life...That Dose of Mortality will MAKE or BREAK him... Rogers CAN Get in Better Shape (He's a BIT Pudgy) & there's TONS More he Can Learn, in Hopes of Being a More WELL ROUNDED MMAist...Hopefully this Loss LIT a Fire Under his Ass...But REED's Gonna Reserve Judgement on Rogers Until we Get EVIDENCE Either Way... REED:hammert:
