Whoohoo! I am SOOOOO excited tonight, settling in to watch Rashad Evans attempt to regain his title from his former training partner John "Bones" Jones. Now I don't know about anyone else, but my money's on the superhero, Bones Jones. What's not to like? The man is everything you would want in a fighter, and then some. Genetically he's a bit of a freak with abnormally long appendages (it's practically impossible to go inside with him; he strikes/kicks at will), but all that notwithstanding, the fun of watching him hone his craft as a fighter is unbeatable. He's like a dangerous big kid learning how to use new toys, and you see him playing with his opponents every time. There is no predicting where he's coming from next as he continues to have more and more of a complete game. His skills are amazing. Of course, I have to always remember that in MMA, all it takes is one lucky shot (right Brock?!). These are two well conditioned and skillful fighters, so I hope it comes down to these things and not "luck."
