    AJ would have to KO Jones with the first punch he throws.

    if he fails. He’s tied up and taken to the ground then choked unconscious or beaten unconscious with elbows

      Gane is a stylistically favourable match up for Jones but calling him a bum is harsh. Hes big and athletic and might be the most technically skilled and slick striker in HW MMA history. An old DC was giving Stipe all he could handle too.

      But yeah, I wouldnt favour Jones over Aspinall or (before the AJ fight anyway) Ngannou.

        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.

          AJ would be too big, strong and powerful. He would put Jones out cold within seconds.

            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

              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.

                    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.

                      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
