Stipe gets zero respect nowdays. Ridiculous.
Do you agree with this fool? Start at minute 1.

 
Yeah he sounded like a real dumbass there and I’m a fan of most of his shows

It’s funny that Callen actually tends to have more accurate opinions and takes on the fight game than he does
 
Stipe beats Jones..

There's a reason why he refuses to move up to HW.
 
Schaub gonna Schaub..

Came in here thinking that Schaub was going to say that Jones had no chance. At which point I was going to call Schaub a moron. But I agree that Jones would be favored to win, although it would certainly be a competitive fight.

LOL you claim disrespect, and yet the video starts by them claiming he could be the best HW in the world...
 
What still amazes me is that people are so confident regarding the outcome of a fight
"No way is John beating Jack"
"It won't happen"
"No chance"

And this coming from a guy like Schaub. Dude, nobody gave you a chance at beating Mirko, even past his prime Mirko. And still...
 
Santos pretty much just beat Jones. Stipe would probably KO him.
 
Jones beats Stipe rather easily

One of the few logically sound opinions Schaub has ever voiced
 
Let's wait until Jones decides to step up and fight before calling him the winner.
 
No surprise. Schaub has persistently underestimated Stipe's chances.

(apologies for not knowing the original context to be able to quote it directly, as well as the gratuitous leg crossing)

Why I don't know. But I wonder whether his experience of sparring during the early days of Stipe's career — he had him in for the fight camp for the Rothwell fight back in 2012 — has stuck in his mind too much, that he can only see him as if fixed at that stage when in reality he's advanced far beyond it. Or maybe even it's a little bit of buried jealousy that it was Stipe who forged ahead to win the belt, and not him.
 
I think jones vs leaner is the fight.

Brock will have to charge him like askren but if he whiffs he’ll get pieces up in a few minutes and cash in millions with a tko loss. The Jon is cemented as a heavyweight with a big national audience and you can sell any fight from there
 
- Schaub / Sonnen says something clearly controversial

- Fans write about it on social media and message boards


Rinse/repeat.

It's intentional, I can't make sense of why so many people keep falling for it.
 
If Jones himself thought that he would beat Stipe then he would be pursuing that fight right now. LHW is a wasteland currently.
 
Jones doesn't really have one shot KO power (Barring a head kick which might be a bit harder against the much bigger Stipe).

He is clearly a superior fighter but Stipe has size and power as well as decent wrestling fundamentals. Jones could probably pick at him from the outside for 5 rounds but his reach is only about 4 inches greater.

Not to mention although Jon has demonstrated a very good chin, Stipe has KO'd some very tough fighters, hell his KO of Werdum was a backpedalling short punch that dropped him like a sack of potatoes.

I agree that Jones should be favored to win based on his fight IQ and adhering to a gameplan but Stipe would be a lot like Jones Gus 1 except he hits like a tank.
 
Schaub is a huge Jones fanboy, I'd be surprised to hear anything other than Jones via domination from him.
