Solid fight.

I am picking Jones in an easy fight for him. Matter of fact if you put Jones up against anyone I am picking Jones in an easy win.

Are we ever going to see Jones-Evans?

Probably not. While I would pick Jones to win, Evans is an extremely good wrestler and could make for a boring fight. As long as there are still fighters who like to stand at 205 you will see Dana matching Jones up with them just because KO's sell better.

This will not be an easy fight for Bones at all, Machida is going to cause Bones all sorts of bother.

I'm big on Jones but Machida's the one guy who I think is a good matchup against him. I'm not saying he'll win, but he is a master of timing, patience and execution. He avoids punishment better than anyone and is the only guy I think who can capitalize on Jones' recklessness. If he can keep Jones from bulldozing him, it will be very competitive.

Jones boxing will outclass machida and I think it will end in the first round.
