More or less the same as Thiago Santos for me, not a favorite but he has tools and a shot.
But where Santos is a wild fighter, Reyes shines when it comes down to fundamentals. He has some nasty angles on crosses and uppercuts.

It's more or less how I see the fight playing too, JimmiC. If Jones stays predictable - which he has been defensively for a long time - then Reyes has a legit shot in my opinion. It will depends which Jones shows up, if he's playing the long distance counterattack path, that's what would give Reyes the most opportunities. If he's the pressuring fighter, not so much. And I think they will cancel each other's wrestling.

Chookagian vs Shevchenko is gonna be a wash, both counterstrikers with Shevchenko better on every aspect of the game. I just hope that Chookagian will not wait to lose as Liz Carmouche did.

And isn't Khabib's weight outside of training camps/fights almost 200 lbs?

Im not sure but Jones is apparently is in the 240-250 range.

Khabib might have a shot at Jones if he got John on the ground, but Jones is so much stronger and has so much more reach, I don't know how the hell Khabib would get him in a submission position.

Isreal/Yoel Dance off could be more entertaining than their actual fight

I think hypothetically if Jones and Khabib were the same weight, Jones would win. He's just too much of a physical freak. His reach is like 10" longer than anyone else, even guys his height or taller. He's talented and athletic enough to match Khabib's ground game and dominate him on the feet. Personally I'd consider them #1 and 2 p4p (unique take I know). And I think 3 to 1 is terrible odds on anyone until we see JJ actually lose.

Jones spent his entire childhood fighting his older brother Chandler Jones who is a NFL pro-bowler, you cant get any better genetics and training than that.

JJ down 2 rounds to 0. I have a knack for being wrong about things.

I had a feeling that was gonna happen. WTF is up with these judges? I really didn't understand JJ's lack of urgency in the 5th round, but I guess he knew something I didn't. He had to try so hard to convince himself he won that in his post fight speech. This one deserves an immediate rematch.
