BE’s Baddest Greatest Light Heavyweight: #1 Jon Jones vs. #8 Babalu Sobral

Our most recent battle was a clash between old school fighters, and it was a close one. In the end, the #6 ranked Gracie Killer, Kazushi Sakuraba just barely squeezed by #3 Jeremy Horn by the slimmest of margins, 21-19. Good match-up, and good discussion.

Today, an interesting discussion for sure. From the time this tournament was announced, Jon Jones was the obvious favorite and overall #1 seed, and I assumed there would be no drama to any of his match-ups. Today? Well, there’s certainly more to consider now. Let’s start getting into the messy legacy of Jones now, as he matches up with #8 Renato Sobral.
