Cormier vs. Jones 2 | Fight Highlights

DC was an Olympic wrestler...Jon was taller, which should've given DC an advantage in an area he dominated nearly ever person he ever fought. Jon is that good. That not even an Olympian can take him down.

[@DD2Tacc]

To be honest man if DC was younger the outcome would be the same. Can’t out strike Jon or even out wrestle him 🤷🏾‍♂️ Jones IQ is also higher man Jones is more durable & jones is stronger and more agile has more IQ and still had more weapons in his arsenal DC would probably get knocked out in the first fight against Jones if he was younger tbh

The amazing thing was how Jones set that headkick up. He attacked the body a lot in this fight with body shots, kicks and knees. Even with that headkick, he was initially looking at DC's body which is what threw DC off as he moved his arms to block a body kick which left his head wide open. Jones is an incredibly creative and dangerous fighter with physical gifts but his fight IQ is what sets him apart from everyone!

[@creategreatness8823]

The little leg sweep there that completely sent DC off balance was a thing of beauty, absolutely surgical. When fighters get rocked or are wobbly, the opponent often just thinks about landing those key follow-up shots to the head and go head hunting or for a takedown to secure the advantage. But when guys are a little out of it, a simple kick to the leg or foot sweep is super effective because they are trying to find their feet and regain their senses...so moves that normally wouldn't mess them up can send them tripping backwards onto themselves...and give you that surefire advantage you were looking for after rocking them.

[@michaelpryor78]

@@nft3 Acting like Jon wouldn't be champ material without them is nonsensical. Anyone who says this simply doesn't know what they're looking at. His technical skills are on another level, and his length/reach makes him extremely troublesome to deal with. Steroids play no role in that nor his ability to utilize his length to land a head kick. If you want to be a steroid puritan, then watch another sport. Guys are on them. It's professional cage fighting and there are ways to get away with it. People just have a double standard and point the finger at Jon. With the possible exceptions of Silva and Dillashaw, almost everyone else who was juicing gets a free pass with the fans because they weren't as successful.

[@digitalsage5636]

He's almost 5 inches shorter than Jon, 8 years older than him and Jon still needed steroids

the knee that john hit cormier to the body with is a thing of beauty its the best knee to the body ive ever seen in ufc

malicious technique

[@The-DAWG957]

I feel like deep down Jones isn't trying too beat his opponent, It seems like he's trying too really kill him not just beat them. Killer Instinct too brutally beat someone is one thing, but Jon is just using everything possible too utterly destroy his opponents. And its amazing.

[@bumgop]

I feel like the most fascinating thing about Jones' striking is the awkward timing. Most fighters have a rhythm they strike with, whether theyre throwing combos or just single shots. Jon seems to throw punches with weird timing, though, effectively disrupting any flow or rhythm his opponents might enter

[@quasheemtaylor3443]

It’s called telegraph punching her does not great but he does it why it’s weird

[@TheGenericAssasin]

Just about every strike comes immediately after some kind of feint or other deceptive motion. He's just so smooth with them too, probably really hard to read in the ring

[@reallokki]

check jiri prochazka if u want to see random punches without timing and still effective

[@ryangarnett4705]

You never know what weapon of his arsenal is coming either like it could be a kick to the knee, body or head, or a spinning elbow, jab, knee to body etc.

Hands down my most favourite fight of all time. Two absolute beasts clashing. DC is an amazing fighter, but was outclassed the goat jonny

[@madextreme2682]

Jon's whole strategy was to set up for that head kick even though DC fought well over the first two rounds and arguably won them...he was hitting him with leg kicks and body kicks to condition DC to defend those kicks to he can leave his head open for that kick .

[@SHENGUS.]

4:32 just noticed what jon does with his hands before that sweep, toying with his food

[@FitnessOnly-sm2ut]

This was and still is the most talent rich matchup in combat sports history. They are both complete fighters with almost no weaknesses. The matchup and overall skill still amazes me.

Jones setup that head kick beautifully. The first two rounds he was digging to the body and then…BANG, DC dipped into it. Similar scenario to Usman and Edwards.

[@taiseuxlesjargonautes340]

Some years later, Edwards will give the same kick to Usman !

[@3CityJay]

The slow mo is Iconic asf 😮

[@mr.speyside5240]

He still had the wherewithal to evade the first few strikes after the kick. That’s impressive. DC is a beast.

[@vinznearby4315]

Whatever you say man. BUT still this fight was the most satisfying loss of DC. I can watch this over and over and over and over and still the gratification and satisfaction of DC losing to JJ is unending...

[@samxyx]

Love the quote from Cormier earlier in the week where he says something like "I know I have some bad tendencies, and you're not going to catch me with a headkick. It will be corrected by then"

[@jack_green]

Im pretty sure that was before the first fight, but its scary how accurate it was, "You won't catch me with a left leg, and kick me in the head" or something

[@Newjerseyblows]

Caught him with the front BOW

[@omni-man4624]

That trip after the head kick.... .Genius kinda reminds me of The last Emperor...

[@sandeepmortal]

Jones is an exceptional fighter but DC did have a disadvantage of age and height. He was pushing 40 here and his arm reach was a foot lesser.

[@NattyWerewolf]

DC can take hits man. Like a tank

Honestly, this belongs in the top 3 greatest professional fights of all time.

With all the beef and hate Jones and DC had for each other they still touched gloves before each fight , that goes a long way with respect in the fight world Still hurts seeing DC cry like that

The head collision changed the fight. When DC got cut the fight went differently. He wasn't doing a bad job against the striker JJ. This also was youth, strength and height versus older tough veteran. The better one won!
