Is Jon "Bones" Jones the next Anderson Silva?
Very creative, varied, quick strikes. I don't remember any other fighter with such a vicious ground and pound! I think he's gonna be a dominating champ!
He didn't deserve that loss - the state athletic commission outlawed the 12 to 6 o'clock elbows to the head just because of the brick breaking demos that are popular with some martial arts schools, thinking that strike is much more powerful than other elbow strikes.

I was very impressed with that fake punch to the gut/lower leg then twisting around with an elbow...slick. That guy's got talent for sure, and definitely humble even with the disappointing disqualification.

Oh and thanks Jason for quoting Joe Rogan.

Yeah it was almost sad how Matt was being beat like that on the ground and Jones kept looking up. Jones really should have just stood back up and finished by a KO, Matt was already tore up. http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Jon...t-Hamill-21351 Such a good athlete, and so humble.

Interesting interview of Jones from a few months back

Big big things for this guy, I'm looking forward to watching him grow in the sport!
