Jones retained the title
You could have argued for Reyes but he faded the last two rounds. I can see a rematch happening

That's assuming Jones actually moves to HW which he keeps acting like he wants to but never commits to it He's fairly content being the big man in a weak LHW division

That's assuming Jones actually moves to HW which he keeps acting like he wants to but never commits to it He's fairly content being the big man in a weak LHW division Problem is that it seems like people are figuring out his game. It's nearly cost him twice now and somebody, sooner or later, is gonna perfect that strategy and rip the belt from him. Or he tries to get cute like Anderson Silva did with Chris Weidman. On that note, how in the unholiest of blue f***ing hells does anyone think Jones won four rounds. I won't say Reyes got robbed because Rd3 was close enough to go either way, but Jon Jones did not win four f***ing rounds. And the same judge who thought that he did had some really f***ing awful cards earlier in the night. I don't want to go full Dana White here but was that judge even f***ing paying attention to what was going on inside the Octagon tonight?!

Yea, he's going to get caught eventually because you are starting to see young dudes with quick hands really keep up with him early but fade down the stretch. He's somewhat on GSP and Silva mode right now in regards to he's willing to ride out a 5 round fight as opposed to finishing it early Yea, no f***ing way Bones won 4 rounds. After 3 rounds I thought Reyes was up 2-1 and you could almost talk yourself into 3-0 but Bones clearly won the last two sounds. The UFC is def just as bad as boxing is with the "don't let the judges decide: your fate BS. I shouldn't be afraid a judge is going to f*** me over if they are competent

I saw that decision coming even though I thought Reyes won the first three rounds. You’re not going to uncrown a long reigning big draw champ via decision unless you throughly undeniably dominate the fight. This was too close of a matchup.

Like, I'm full-on wondering if this judge learned his craft from Cecil Peoples.

Reyes won, but I knew UFC was gonna give it to Jones. Jones is sadly at that level where you have to actually KO or submit him before UFC allows him to lose and even if the ref stops it, Dana will complain to kingdom come about it.
This was as close to the Lennox Lewis vs. Evander Holyfield I fight as I have ever seen.

Jones is definitely on the downside. I still believe that if Thiago Santos had two good knees he would have KOd him with extreme prejudice. Dana slurping him all the time is going to be so hilarious when he gets clipped by someone. With each fight it’s a bit closer to happening.

Francis and those guys would kill him with one punch

So Diego Sanchez just won a fight on home soil... because Michel Pereira hit him with an illegal knee while he was down and got DQed IN A FIGHT PEREIRA WAS f***ING WINNING.
AND IT WAS THE SECOND ILLEGAL KNEE DQ OF THE MAIN CARD.
WHAT THE f***ING f***.

I get why Sanchez refused to fight to get the win. But like, it means nothing. We saw who was the better guy and that shouldn't affect who gets the higher ranked dude next time out. Diego is clearly washed physically and maybe mentally at this point.

Diego is clearly washed physically and maybe mentally at this point. When I saw the card, I was like, "Why the f*** is beaten-up Diego Sanchez in a co-main in 2020?" And DQ aside the fight showed why.
