There is no way Chael is getting Jones down, sure he got Silva down but Jones is worlds better than Silva when it comes to wrestling.
I said it before, I'm a fan of Sonnen but Jones is going to wreck the guy.
Jones and Sonned just did ustream with Dana White. Dana stepped to the side and Jones and Chael were super buddy buddy. I thought they were going to start stroking each other. Here's a round up of all the answers..

@frontrowbrian Agreed. I know Chael respects Jones and vice versa but you're killing the heat with that "friendly chat"

Metro PCS chat over. Not bad. Jon Jones and Chael were professional. I wonder how Tito and Shamrock would have gone in that situation.

-Says he's still around 230, hasn't gained any weight yet
-He hasn't spoken to Dan Henderson yet, but thinks their relationship will be fine
-On Quinton Jackson - ' "I don't have the foggiest idea what he's good at, but man, he can win a lot of fights.'

The Infamous

Jones probably has the best MMA wrestling in the business...except for maybe DC. His clinch work is
My top 3 MMA wrestlers are GSP, Bones and DC.
Bones' clinch [trips and throws] are beautiful.
Tommy Knocks
retired
Got no problem with that list, at all.
Bones in the clinch is a scary sight. Which is strange for such a tall guy. Im on the tall side myself and i love trips and suplexs from the clinch and everybody always looks at me weird
