With Jones speed, reach and footwork, I can see him getting a pretty easy decision or late tko. Glover hits hard but is too slow imo, he also lags when it comes to cutting/angling off the octagon. I also think with Tex having one punch ko power and ANYTHING can happen in mma, I can see Bones taking him down one after the other.

Don't kno if the arm extensions are ILLEGAL or not, but I would think if they were, fighters tweets would be a lot different then they are. Everyone damn near givin bones props. I would also think glover and his corner woulda said somethin post fight interview. Either way, glover got dominated, eye pokes had nothin to do with it. I've been eye poked ONCE in sparring. Eyes were red for bout 4 days, couldn't hardly see out of it after it happened. Glover HARDLY got eye poked. Arm extensions are an effective weapon for taller fighters to use against shorter fighters. U cradle their heads in the palm, u control the head. U control the head, u control the body. Fighters cover the mouths and nose of their opponent ALL THE TIME when their in guard to disrupt the breathing. Y isn't that "illegal" or "cheating"? The jones hate is ridiculous.

Arm extensions aren't illegal, open extended fingers resting on his face are. Also i'm not a Jones hater at all, dude put on a dope fight, nothing but props, but Mirgliotta should have put a stop to that shit. Big John and Herb Dean are pitbulls when it comes to that lol they threaten points without even an eyepoke.

guess I was wrong about my predictions. Missed the fights, I'm guessing Bones eyepoked and kicked Glover in the knee for the first 2 rounds?

Yeah Glover got poked in the eye twice in the first couple of rounds, wasn't too bad though, Glover didn't even stop when the ref offered him the 5 minutes.
