I don't disagree that Jones is about a bazillion more times talented than Lesnar, my point is let him face some adversity in the ring. If he wins like 9 fights in a row and is never in trouble, then that is in fact facing adversity in and of itself.
But the boy hasn't been tested through and through yet. AS I noted, someone will find a weakness and exploit it, and the true test of a champ is coming back from that.
GSP has a bit of a suspect chin.
Silva can't deal with with good wrestlers.
Lesnar couldn't take a punch without turning into worlds biggest pussay.
Chuck Liddell turned out to have a suspect chin as well (rampage found it first)
EVery fighter has a weakness. Jones is young and hasn't fought a ton. Lots of ability but like every fighter walking the planet, he has a weakness and someone will find it. Thats why I don't jump on these bangwagons. I wait to see if a guy can hack it after he's been through the grinder a bit.
