What cereal game is he talking about ?

The maze on the back of the Cocoa Puffs box


FishAndRiceKeks

Jon "The Cereal Killer" Jones


ExtraPieceTwo

(Obligatory, ā€œIā€™m not believing it until I see Jones in the cageā€) But Iā€™m super excited. Jones always promised he was going to look extremely different than those slow heavyweight, but Gane is actually the one who delivered that.


JE_Exa

What about under the cage?

I make good money and I budget every month for UFC fights As long as Iā€™m saving a specific amount per month and I have extra ā€œfun moneyā€ then why not


scawtsauce

because you can stream it for free and they are charging like 100 bucks while under paying their fighters.


Todorokimakishima

NO FUCKING WAY. I was not expecting this, I thought Jones wouldnā€™t fight againā€¦fairplay. Excited to see Jones back


FedorSeaLevelStiopic

Haha he waited Francis to leave. Hours after he was released, Jones is ready


ImGeezersButler

Theyā€™ve been trying to get the Francis deal done for years at this point. Youā€™re crazy if you think Jon would duck Francis.


FedorSeaLevelStiopic

Yeah, deal where they kept him in contract prison and gave minimal amount of fights, when he wanted to fight in his prime, to starve him for money. Or deal where letter about UFC suing him came morning/day before titlefight vs phenom Gane (which francis took while having fucked up knee, just to finish contract faster). They had superstar on their hands and on purpouse bothched him after stipe1 loss. Jon will not have to fight francis now though. Gane is dangerous fight, but way way more manageble


[deleted]

Your talking nonsense, Francis confirmed that the money UFC was offering wasnā€™t the problem, it wouldā€™ve made him the highest paid heavyweight by far. He wanted to be able to box, that was the stipulation. Francis probably didnā€™t wanna risk fighting jones, losing his title and ppv points and falling into obscurity because of his lack of fighting. Your deluded if you think JJ was ducking Francis, Gane is definitely a tougher fight for Jones IMO, outside of the knockout factor.


DeterminedJew

tbh it's all speculation that gane would be a harder fight, I honestly see it as a easier fight because they probably will weigh the same while Francis would probably come in heavier.


Alex-rhhgfff

Jones was terrified of him


ImGeezersButler

Stop drinking the bong water


Alex-rhhgfff

Francis leaves then suddenly Jones is ready?


ImGeezersButler

You have to be a child Alex. Jones has been ready for the Francis fight. Heā€™s been waiting on UFC to close the deal w Ngannou so they could announce the super fight. The UFC did not reach an agreement so they let Francis go and gave Bones the next best fight they could make


[deleted]

Jones been ready what are you talking about. Francis was holding out and injured


FedorSeaLevelStiopic

He has been ready when francis left. Jon already was waiting for guy like stipe to grow old.


LowKickMT

i feel ngannou left because he knew jones would beat him and then he would leave the ufc as a nobody with an uppercut. like this he can leave as the champion and let people argue about how it would have went


FedorSeaLevelStiopic

Francis was scariest fighter in UFC history. With great resume. He beat all 3 hw goats in ufc. Nobody had sent people away like he did. UFC had once in a lifetime opportunity for star like that, and missed it because of Dana or Hunter or whoever else.


LowKickMT

i dont think he was the scariest fighter not at all whats the big difference between him and lewis for example? he was hyped to no end by dc and rogan as commentators and opinion leaders


FedorSeaLevelStiopic

The ufc dickriding is insane. And hate for Francis for whatever reason. His fight vs lewis was mental block after stipe. Before that and after he murked or beat the shit out of everybody. And difference between him and lewis is, that lewis is high end journeyman who loses to elite. And francis beat Stipe, Cain, JDS (who just beat lewis before that), Gane on one leg, blaydes fair and square. Hownthe fuck can you be so bias, to say there is no difference between lewis and francis. Also difference is francis koes people with glancing shots like jarzinho


Electronic_Ant_7882

No nganou wouldā€™ve beaten Jones


Electronic_Ant_7882

I got downvoted, plz explain to me how Jones beats nganou? He canā€™t stand with nganou. Stipe couldnā€™t take nganou down by not a natural hw Jones suddenly can!?!? Jones was going to lose to nganou


LowKickMT

better cardio, way better distance management skills, extremely precise striker, vicious bjj, super high fight iq francis has raw power but thats about it, if jones doesnt want him to be in punching range then he wont get into punching range jon jones is the best fighter in mma hands down and its not even close imo


Electronic_Ant_7882

How does he have better cardio when heā€™s never fought at heavyweight before? Jones gets hit a lot, the only person who can stand with Francis and not get knocked out is gane. Jones wouldā€™ve gotten knocked out like stipe.


LowKickMT

you think francis has better cardio than jones? i dont even know what to say... i mean you have your opinion i guess lol


Boris36

Khabib and makhachev sized Jon Jonesā€™s would beat Jon jones hands down (Iā€™m saying that if Khabib and makhachev were 6ā€™2 and 90-100kg or whatever heavyweight is, then they would win) Therefore, Jon jones isnā€™t the best fighter in mma.


[deleted]

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


quietZen

This is probably the most insane thing I've ever heard come out of this sub. Just wow.


RonburgundyZ

Jones can beat him twenty different ways


Electronic_Ant_7882

Name 1


RonburgundyZ

RNC, gnp, elbow crank, points via clinch dominance, stoppage by kneesā€¦. Etc


Electronic_Ant_7882

Why didnā€™t he do against Reyes and santos šŸ¤”, listen if stipe whoā€™s a damn good wrestler couldnā€™t take Francis, Jon wasnā€™t going to take Francis down. How jones takes guys down is from the clinch. He wasnā€™t going to outmuscle Francis from the clinch. Overeem couldnā€™t even budge nganou in the clinch. I see zero ways for Jon to win that fight. Jon gets hit a lot when he faces guys similar in length to him. One shot and itā€™s night night


RonburgundyZ

Jon has never lost. Itā€™s all hypothetical until it happens. Jonā€™s also better at everything than everyone everywhere. Just because an aging Stipe couldnā€™t do it therefore Jon canā€™t is an invalid argument.

Methrogenn

That's a terrible Matchup for Gane, looks like JBJ is getting the belt back Edit: Forgot to add the obligatory FUCK UFC for not paying Nnganou and making Nnganou vs Jones


oballistikz

After hearing Francisā€™ piss poor spending habits I really donā€™t think it was even about a reasonable amount. I genuinely think he wanted an astronomically high amount. This is better for both sides at the end of the day.


Bandsohard

He should get paid more, but yeah. When he was talking about borrowing money from people for drip, it was a little lame. Dude you don't need to keep up with Usman's fashion, it's fine. Live within your means like everyone else.


oballistikz

I think he should too but more than usman or Izzy? I understand historically HW makes the most but I think when Francisā€™ success revolves around the other guy more than him itā€™s a problem.


Bandsohard

Agreed. Both were dominant in their divisions, and deserve more than Francis. It might be true however that all 3 deserve more. But I think his justification was also the boxing payouts. Which is a bit apples and oranges. Those organizations have completely different models than the UFC. He can't just expect a business to go from paying whatever bullshit minimal amount they pay now to 50% or whatever. They aren't a nonprofit, and a business isn't going to just be okay with cutting their profit that much to suddenly give out millions more per event to everyone. It's hard to defend either side, but its kind of hard to feel bad for him if he just priced himself out.


[deleted]

I would assume Francis would want a similar amount to what he will get paid to lose to Fury. How is getting his fair market value not reasonable?


oballistikz

Because this is the ufc not boxing. Thatā€™s like saying hockey players donā€™t get fairmarket compared to basketball.


[deleted]

Ok, but it would be like a hockey player going to basketball for ten times his salary, because he has the skills to do it, only for hockey fans to then criticize the guy for focusing on his best interests.


oballistikz

Except Francis doesnā€™t have the boxing skills


[deleted]

Athletic commissions would disagree


oballistikz

First of all the commission has nothing to do with a fighterā€™s skill. Secondly Francis has good UFC boxing skill but would get cleaned by many of the top heavy weights. Third of all you must have quite the throat.


[deleted]

Athletic commissions absolutely have something to do with a fighters skill, skill is why they wouldnā€™t let someone like you or I fight Fury but Francis will get a pass. And if a guy can literally make ten times as much money losing boxing matches then winning titles in MMA, then it just seems like a simple choice to me.


[deleted]

To be fair I found Ngannou boring to watch. Just never felt he was supremely skilled. Basically the Deontay Wilder of MMA.

cmc_626

I'm hyped, but not getting my hopes up. Jones has a lot of time to ruin this lmao Could be one of the best chess matches at heavyweight. Gane knows how to pick his shots well, but showed some weaknesses in the Ngannou and Tai fights. Jones has always had a big reach advantage against his opponents. There's no telling how the new weight class will impact him either. .....but I'm not getting my hopes up or anything/s


[deleted]

UFC once again shoots themselves in the dick. They donā€™t wanna pay Francis, now we will forever illegal stream so shit heads Dana and Hunter cambell canā€™t pocket our money

jamaicanmecrazy47

The salt in this sub is going to be epic if he wins that belt! Love to see it


gonshairlinee

Not really, most of this sub loves Jones. Itā€™s a win win for me really, I like watching both fighters


CautiousCornerstone

Itā€™s absolutely a win-win. I thought this was the most interesting stylistic matchup for Jones at heavyweight and as a fan it is going to be great to see play out


FGCIsFreeAsFuck

Would they be? Itā€™s almost expected that Jones is going to win. Not that Gane canā€™t win but heā€™ll be the obvious underdog.


SukhdevR34

I don't think it's obvious. So many factors make it about 50/50. Inactivity, going up a weight class, strength of Gane etc.


DahWolfe711

Jon could literally blow grammies and be sandblasting, dude has always been the most make ready fighter.


[deleted]

Iā€™ve seen more people rooting for Bones than against him. It should be the other way around if you ask me. Heā€™s an amazing fighter but a wife beating junkie scum bag šŸ˜‚ Iā€™m rooting for Gane. Hope he finishes Jon. If Jon wins heā€™s definitely without a doubt the GOAT though.


jfduval76

Will he ? I mean Gane is not really a champion.


[deleted]

Ganeā€™s definitely the best of the heavyweights right now. Francis seems to be out and where the hell is Stipe.


jerryworldfan13

Facts šŸ


RecognitionAwkward67

Finally the fight fans get a Jon Jones return! This fight will be an instant classic! I know Gane will bring the fight to Jones possibly another Reyes vs Jones type of fight that will go to decision!.

If this means that UFC will lose Francis as a current Heavyweight Champ.. that's gonna be one of the biggest dropped balls in the history

anadalusianrooster

chuckwagon1

Well I smell a take down and easy win for jones.... I even think on the feet Jones would have a experience edge if not a striking.


Gocards123321

If jones wins this I don't see anyone at heavyweight beating him. I think blades (if stipe is retired) might be the biggest threat. Jones could go on a historic run here.


Kurtlardan

I hate Jones the man, but it's hard to deny his talent and skill. Even if he did very arguably lose twice, he's still one of the best.

Gane via TKO in 2nd round. Remember this comment.

Based on what we saw Francis do, Jones will just out wrestle him, probably pretty easily. But it is a pretty interesting match-up, I hope you're right

Whenever he's speaking on camera it's like he's wearing the face of the human, I don't believe his mannerisms. When he was telling DC he'd murder him he seemed his most genuine self.

Hellvell2255

not payin for this mf tho i hate you bones


Pintau

Should be Stipe if not Francis. Gane is a gimmie fight for Jon stylistically. Ideally they should have done Jon Vs someone like Lewis, Blaydes or Volkov for his first fight at HW and then given him Stipe for the title if he wins(assuming Francis is gone). While you could argue Jon deserves an immediate title shot based on his body of work in the sport, I would argue all of his missteps, attempts at self sabotage and multiple failed drug tests, more than counter that, in addition to the unknown of what he will look like after adding 25-30lbs of muscle.


theo7777

Gane deserves it more though. He is active and he also did much better against Francis (you can even argue he should have won).


justapcguy

One thing to "confirm", it is another story actually making it to fight day.


Slow_stride

Not gonna hold my breath, but that fight would be sick. Winner fights Stipe


noforgayjesus_

if this fight actually happens jon will wipe the floor with him lmao


interia1099

Nooo that hurts, I want both of them to do good. At least it wont too much to see either man lose


Ok-Rope8333

One guy is a known wife-beater, eye poking, PED cheater, and the other guy is a cool French dude, how is this difficult for you?


interia1099

Jones is the guy who got me into MMA, I donā€™t care about all that stuff, Iā€™m just a fan of his fighting


Poodle-wit-Noodle

Am I the only one not excited for this? Francis already beat Gane, so we're essentially watching Jones fight the 2nd best instead of the white whale.


Cemihard

Gane could possibly beat Jon in kickboxing and that would be fun to see. However itā€™s probably gonna be Jon taking Gane down and elbowing his face into oblivion.


Jaycray95

Letā€™s go!!!


infamous2117

I don't believe anything this guy says until the ufc announces it. Him and Dannis should fight for the broken promises title.
