Yes Clearly
Not yet
My thoughts exactly. But then I thought about it, and the same could be said for me and Frank Mir -- except, I hope that there's no question about if I'd go down on him, because I'd blow that meat flute like Kenny G on his sax.
In the 2nd part of the vid at this link:

Bones mentions that he wanted 3 fights this year: 2 at LHW then 1 at HW against a Top 10 guy, but UFC (Dana) said that the time isn't right. Starts about the 9:55 mark of the 2nd vid. Interesting that he is already thinking about fighting at HW.
I do not think Jon Jones is the P4P best yet. He had in my opinion the greatest year in MMA history last year, but I still have GSP as the top P4P fighter by a slim margin. Right now I think GSP is more well rounded, though Jones is quickly catching up in all areas and is far more brutal than the welterweight champion. Anderson has had the most dominant run in UFC history, but as the Chael fight shows he has a glaring weakness in his game.
He received a "Grio" award from NBC news;
and here is the piece they did on him:

what the does "bone-bruising" mean?
I'd love to see Cigano fight Jon Jones..... we'll see whats up then...
I'm thinking it MIGHT last 2 minutes before Jones has him on the ground and is feeding him elbows for a TKO.
Doubt it...as soon as he got close enough, Cigano would decapitate him with an overhand right. Similar to what he did to Cain Velasquez tbh...
This will be re-examined after UFC 145 if he wins..
I voted yes...but you can yell bias since he's one of my favorite fighters to watch.
Yes he is......
Who has Silva beat compared to Jones?Prisoners of the MOMENT
Kid has defended his le 4 times.
So if he dies in a car wreck tomorrow is he the "James dean" of MMA?
Silva has been kicking ass for so long and is undefeated in the UFC.
That counts for more than 4 le defenses no matter what.
MW is a weak division and has been for years....
He is showing staying power against better fighters and he'd rape Silva in a fight. Sonnen will take that belt in June anyway..
Jones is 24 he can lose come back and dominate for a long time.. Silva has losses Jones has never come close to losing... GSP lost at 25 and dominated the next 5 years..Not gonna change my mind the kid has to show staying power. Also the thought of him moving up to heavy weight was one of Joe Rogan's best "moments' why is this guy even on the show?
Came back to clarify my position.
If Silva were to loose his next fight and retire the debate on whether he was the best pound for pound never is still valid.
If Jones looses his next fight and ever get the le back and is out of MMA for ever, retires then comparing him to Silva would be a.
Who is next to fight Jones in the lhw?
I see nobody. Hendo will get the chance now and I predict 2nd round finish for Jones.
Then maybe Gustafsson if he beats somebody that's top5.
And Phil Davis that lost to Shad.
It's not that stupid now to think Bones can move up the division.
JDS, Cain are top fighters and they are close as heavy as Jones
I didn't miss anything because your point is moronic. Jones is not retiring if he loses what kind of stupid ass logic is that? That is a what if that would never happen..Cleary you missed the point of me saying " never get the le back and is out of MMA for ever, retires then comparing him to Silva would be a
I'm done with this debate dude. Not gonna change my mind. Jones has gotta put in the time and the fights for me to consider him better than Silva.
Cheers.
Careers don't end today that is why your argument does not work.. Silva lost fights older than Jones is right now..
Hughes would be the GOAT WW had GSP quit after Serra... And Jones has done enough right now to earn this le... Silva fights in the inferior weight class and trust me wants no part of Jones.. He will never take that fight..
Careers ending today for a near 40 year old Silva versus a 24 year old Jones...
Jones has already done more in MMA when you look at strength of opponent.....

He's 24 there is no rush whatsoever to move him up to HW... Let him grow..
at the moment, JDS would pick Jones apart IMO. It would be amazing as to watch though
JDS should be considered for top pound for pound imo.
This might be the most re ed thing I've ever read.
Overrated Werdum? Check.
Over the hill CroCop? Check.
Tub of Lard? Check.
Dip Mexican after a year long absence? Check.
Please tell me who JDS has beaten that doesn't have some sort of asterisk by it, or who didn't just plain suck. I am a fan of JDS, in fact, he is my number 2 guy behind Mir -- but to even say his name in the same breath as P4P is absurdity.

Spoke to Binghamton PD, they confirmed TMZ's report that Jon Jones was arrested this morning on DUI charges. The investigation is ongoing.
