What if AJ walks into Jon Jones in a Dark Alley? Could Big Femi lay out Jones like he laid out Ngannou? Or would Jones's MMA skills prevail?
Between those 2 heavyweights who really is the baddest dude on the planet?

This might give you some answers - the guy sucks at kicking and even at punching when he tries to kickbox. I can't blame him for the first, he is a boxer. But makes me think he follows Fury's path because Tyson used to train some MMA a few years back.

Theres your elite "striker" guys....
If they were fighting in an alley under MMA rules (no kicks to the head of a grounded fighter, no downward strikes to the back of the head and neck) then crawling on the ground would be a good way for Jones to avoid getting KTFO by AJ.
But under street fight rules (aka NO RULES) it would be a good way for him to get his skull fractured and/or his teeth kicked to the back of his throat as soon as he crawled into range.
Downward strikes to the head of a grounded fighter were legal for the first few years in the UFC, and kicks to the head of a downed opponent are legal in some promotions even now, doesnt really counter wrestling the way people seem to think it will.
- - What if U soiled U panties when they walk in?
You know that would happen, but you wouldn't be the least embarrassed because that the way U are.
Get yourself a woman, then you wouldn’t feel the need to spend your life trolling for attention. I promise.

Vitor tried that already and missed by a mile.
you are acting like dude is gonna stay there and get kicked. lmfao couch qb
Took AJ a few minutes to land on Ngannou in boxing with 0 threat of takedowns.
jones comes out crawling and shoots a low single immediately. It’s a wrap

The reality is boxers have no idea how to defend kick to the leg and its way easier to land a kick than punch against somebody with no experience defending kicks
Jones would have AJ with one working leg as quick as he wanted and then it's easy work.
A lot of it has a lot to do with how the fight starts. Anybody that had street fights will know that very few of them start off with both people in neutral positions waiting to fight, it usually starts with a scuffle and then punches start flying, so there's a chance of Boxer could get a punch off before an MMA fighter gets chance to do anything if the street fight is more of a natural progression from a scuffle.
but if you put them in the street with a neutral starting point as you would a sporting event then the MMA fighter has major advantages.
Unrealistic scenario, but Jones wins. In an actual real world scenario Joshua has a better chance because real fights are never 1 on 1 alone and rarely involve any ground game. A real fight is chaos with punches being thrown at close quarters usually with people in the middle.
If AJ had a world class shit talking game he could probably goad Jones and his gigantic psychopathic ego into standing with him. Jones' boxing is pretty bad even by MMA standards (watch him hit the pads lmao), but yeah, low single into elbows from hell and Joshua's face ain't gonna be the same.
He's gotta counter the first throwaway punch to takedown. Does he have elite takedown defense? If not, he's going to lose to most heavyweight and light heavyweight MMA fighters with wrestling. Heck, he might lose to DJ, who just subbed a heavyweight black belt in BJJ. The only reason Mercer beat Sylvia is that they agreed to keep it on the feet.
Blast double, ground and pound, submission.
He might beat Anatoly Malykhin, because Malykhin likes to keep it on the feet, and would probably try to beat AJ at his own game.
All those guys train wrestling 24/7 for years.
Joshua gets taken down as soon as jones touches him. Tied up even if it goes for a while. They are tied up. Jones will chain wrestle him down
AJ has one punch to throw. He may not even if Jones shoots a low single. Ankle pick. He wouldn’t even have a punchers chance for 1 second.
Exactly, people are dreaming when they say AJ will land that straight right hand on Jones
Like Jones has never encountered someone throwing a right hand at him
Like someone said it took him a round and a half to land that right with no threat of a takedown
Jones would take him down and land those hellbows and it’s a wrap
You take down a striker if you are a wrestler
James Toney vs Randy Couture, and AJ is far from the skill level of a James Toney and Jones is arguably the best MMA fighter of all time
AJ would be too big, strong and powerful. He would put Jones out cold within seconds.
He definitely has the power to one shot Jones if he can land a good shot quick, but size wise hes not much bigger than Jones honestly. They were less than 5lbs apart in their last fights, AJ is slightly taller but Jones has a bigger reach.
People don't know this about Joshua but he's a huge Bruce Lee fan and partitioner of Jeet-Kune-Do.
Flying Dragon Kick is not legal in boxing.
How do you know he's a fan of Bruce and practices jkd. I never heard that?
u just have a accept these fights will never happen & we will never know, just like for example the big dogs at 135 who would have won between them, we will never know
