Big Brady Expert Hesitant picked Aug 12, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Daniel Cormier

Big Brady picks Cormier to win by decision, expecting him to implement more wrestling and have better cardio. He thinks Cormier is the better fighter and will fight smarter. He wants to see weigh-ins before betting.

"i'm going to go with cormier here to win by decision"

DFS by the Numbers

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Aug 14, 2020 (1 day before fight)

Stipe Miocic

Daniel Levi picks Stipe Miocic to win the trilogy. He argues that Stipe made Cormier work hard in the first fight and that Cormier's pace is unsustainable in championship rounds, especially at age 41 with retirement looming. He notes that Stipe is willing to dig deeper and that body shots have historically troubled Cormier. He also points out that if Cormier wrestles more, it will tire him out faster, leading to a Stipe finish.

Stipe by finish in later rounds; Cormier needs perfect fight or early KO; dog money on Stipe is good value

"I think stipe and i hate to say [__] like oh tougher guy or not tougher guy when you're talking about someone like daniel [__] cormier ... but i really think that stipe is willing to dig deeper at this …"

Half the Battle

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Aug 13, 2020 (2 days before fight)

Daniel Cormier

Cormier is the better wrestler with superior fight IQ and will use a grapple-heavy approach, taking Miocic down repeatedly and wearing him out. He learned from the second fight where he abandoned his wrestling and gassed out; this time he will chain-wrestle and finish via ground-and-pound in the later rounds. Miocic's gas tank has shown issues when forced to wrestle, as seen in the Ngannou fight, and Cormier's top pressure is crushing.

Cormier wins by TKO in round 4; also mentions Cormier in rounds 3,4,5 as potential prop bets

"I expect the experience, the fight IQ, and the true skills to come out of Daniel Cormier to really put a stamp on this trilogy."

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Aug 9, 2020 (6 days before fight)

Stipe Miocic

The MMA Guru picks Stipe Miocic by TKO in the third round. He believes Miocic will start body shots earlier than the second fight and that Cormier won't get away with eye pokes. He dismisses arguments that Cormier will wrestle more, noting Miocic stuffed takedowns in previous fights.

TKO in the third round

"i think stipe miocic goes out there tko's daniel cormier in the third round"

Daniel Cormier vs. Derrick Lewis

Round 1
Referee Herb Dean is the third man in the cage for tonight’s heavyweight main event, with judges Douglas Crosby, Sal D’Amato and Chris Lee scoring the bout should it complete the scheduled five rounds. Lewis strikes first with a switch kick to the body, then goes to the lead leg of Cormier. The champion answers with a low kick of his own as he closes in on Lewis, changes levels and double-legs him to the floor. Cormier sits up in his challenger’s half guard, but Lewis quickly grabs hold to try and minimize the space Cormier has in which to strike. Cormier is still managing to land some hard, grinding elbows as they hit the halfway point of round one. Lewis rolls to his knees, then stands up as Cormier tries to hold him in the wrestling ride. “DC” spins Lewis to the ground with a single-leg and gets back to elbowing, now landing short right hands from Lewis’ half guard. Lewis rolls to his knees, eats a few left hands and nearly has his back taken. Instead, Cormier shoves the kneeling “Beast” against the fence and holds him there, looking for an opportunity to knee which does not materialize.

Sherdog Scores
Ben Duffy scores the round 10-9 Cormier
Brian Knapp scores the round 10-8 Cormier
Chris Nelson scores the round 10-8 Cormier

Round 2
Cormier lands a body kick and narrowly avoids a combination from Lewis, who’s headhunting early here in round two. Lewis whiffs on a few big right hands, overcommits to a knee and gets taken down again. Lewis posts and stands, Cormier still holding him in a front headlock. Cormier lands a knee, drops levels and ankle-picks the challenger to the floor. Lewis gives up his back, and this time Cormier isn’t squandering the opportunity: within seconds, the champ has an arm wrapped around Lewis’ throat, and the “Black Beast” is forced to tap out. Daniel Cormier successfully defends his UFC heavyweight title for the first time with a second-round rear-naked choke submission of Derrick Lewis.

Jon Jones

Daniel Vreeland picks Jon Jones to win, citing Jones' superior MMA wrestling, takedown defense (95%), reach advantage, and younger age. He believes Jones will use oblique kicks to immobilize Stipe, mix in takedowns, and dictate the pace. He acknowledges Stipe's boxing and wrestling credentials but thinks Jones' overall MMA game is superior. He notes that Stipe hasn't fought since 2021 and may have declined.

"I do have to go with Jones here to just come out here and uh show why he's one of the most dominant fighters to ever do it"

Jon Jones

Lucrative James picks Jon Jones to win, citing Stipe Miocic's age (42) and four-year layoff as major concerns. He believes Stipe will look stiff and has lost athleticism, while Jones has an iron chin, superior striking at all ranges, and much better MMA wrestling and grappling. He predicts Jones will win inside the distance, likely within the first two rounds, and notes that Jones can win however he wants if Stipe is a shell of his former self.

UFC Heavyweight Title Fight: Jon Jones vs. Ciryl Gane
BETTING PREVIEW | SCOUTING REPORT | ODDS: Jones (-155), Gane (+135)

Round 1
This one is for all the marbles. The heavyweight strap is officially on the line with the relinquishment of Francis Ngannou’s heavyweight crown and his subsequent release. The challengers for the vacant strap will be former light heavyweight king Jones (26-1, 1 NC; 20-1, 1 NC UFC), who is taking his first trip up to this division and weighed 248 pounds, against ex-interim champ Gane (11-1, 8-1 UFC). Surprising many, Gane checked in a half pound lighter than Jones. These big men have 25 minutes to work and establish themselves, and referee Marc Goddard will receive the final assignment of the night. After a touch of gloves and Gane patting Jones’ chest, it’s on. Jones comes out of his corner like usual, climbing upright, and the two throw at one another immediately. Jones fires a punch up top, and Gane responds with a low kick that slams into Jones’ cup and causes a pause in the first 10 seconds of the bout. Jones takes 30 seconds to clear it out, and they get back to action. Jones takes a low kick to stick the Frenchman with a right hand, and he walks Gane down firing at him. Jones sweeps low with a kick, and Gane replies with a similar blow. Jones walks through a jab and marches Gane down, pressuring the Frenchman and no-selling any strikes that land on him. Jones swings with a big body shot that misses the mark, and when Gane fires off a big right hand, Jones ducks under and trips Gane out to drop him to his knees and down. Gane fights back up to his knees, and Jones slips a hook in around the side while Gane works to his feet. Jones pulls Gane down, and he sits on Gane’s knees and suddenly grips with a guillotine choke that is crushing around Gane’s noggin. Jones lets go and resets his grip to slip his forearm under the chin, and he presses his full body weight on the submission to completely fasten the guillotine. Gane is shocked, his eyes wide open, and he frantically taps out before he goes out. Jones has done it! He is a two-division UFC champion, and he made it look easy against a phenomenal opponent. His status as one of the greatest if not the greatest of all time is fully cemented with this victory, which clocked in around two minutes as his quickest since he smashed Vladimir Matyushenko in 2010. After thanking his family and training partners, Jones has one name in mind: Stipe Miocic, for International Fight Week in July. We will absolutely be here should that materialize, and we hope you are too. What a night.

The Official Result
Jon Jones def. Ciryl Gane R1 2:04 via Submission (Guillotine Choke)

Angelo Bodetti Expert Lean picked Mar 1, 2023 (3 days before fight)

Ciryl Gane

Angelo leans towards Ciryl Gane due to Jon Jones' three-year layoff, weight gain, and poor performance in his last fight. He notes that Gane is a technical striker with great footwork and that Jones struggled with wrestling against Dominick Reyes. Angelo is not betting on this fight.

"I think I have to pick zero gone here because of the layoff because of the unknowns because how shitty Jon Jones looked in his last fight"

Big Brady Expert Hesitant picked Feb 27, 2023 (5 days before fight)

Jon Jones

Big Brady picks Jon Jones but is hesitant due to many red flags: a three-year layoff, lackluster recent performances, and moving up to heavyweight. He notes Gane's takedown defense was exposed by Ngannou, and Jones is a great wrestler. He predicts a decision win for Jones, but advises against betting on the fight due to uncertainty.

Cody Saftic Expert Hesitant picked Mar 1, 2023 (3 days before fight)

Ciryl Gane

Cody is very reluctant to take Jones at -160 given the three-year layoff, recent disinterested performances, and move up to heavyweight. He sees Gane as a legitimate heavyweight who fought Francis Ngannou closely, but worries about Gane's wrestling after Ngannou took him down. He ultimately takes the plus money on Gane but will wait for weigh-ins to see Jones's physique.

Will wait for weigh-ins before locking in; mentions live betting as a possibility

Bookie Beatdown

Connor Ruebusch Expert Hesitant picked Mar 2, 2023 (2 days before fight)

Jon Jones

Connor picks Jones but with significant hesitation. He believes Jones's forward pressure and consistent use of a few tools (lead hook, body kick, side kick) over five rounds will be enough to edge out Gane, despite Jones's decline in activity and wrestling. He expects a close, boring fight where Jones may get hurt but ultimately wins a decision or via a takedown from a Gane error. He notes Gane's poor defensive footwork and tendency to fall apart when pressured, but acknowledges Jones's own defensive flaws and the risk of Gane's jab and kicks.

Expects a close fight; mentions Jones opened at +140 and dropped to -165, but does not recommend a bet.

"I'm going to pick Jones to just have... I don't expect a better version of John Jones. I don't expect anything more than the late career John Jones we've seen. I just think that might still be enough."

Ciryl Gane

Jacob is confident in Ciryl Gane, stating that on the feet, Gane will embarrass Jones with his footwork and speed. He believes Jones will struggle to get takedowns because Gane will be ready for them. Jacob thinks Gane will pick Jones apart and win.

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Feb 27, 2023 (5 days before fight)

Jon Jones

Jones is a dominant wrestler with unorthodox striking and a championship mindset. Gane is a slick striker but has shown vulnerability to wrestling, as seen against Francis Ngannou. Jones will drag the fight to the ground and use his top pressure and ground and pound to win. The weight gain shouldn't be detrimental.

Jon Jones

Paul picks Jon Jones but says it's a stay away from a betting perspective. He believes Jones's wrestling will be the difference, as Gane was taken down by Ngannou. However, he acknowledges the many question marks around Jones and cannot bet him at -170. He thinks Jones will win but won't put money on it.

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Feb 27, 2023 (5 days before fight)

Ciryl Gane

The MMA Guru picks Ciryl Gane to upset Jon Jones, citing Jones' long layoff (over 3 years) and recent close fights. He believes Gane's range, leg kicks, and patience will trouble Jones, and that Jones' takedowns won't be as effective at heavyweight. He predicts a decision win for Gane.

"I'm going with Cyril gone to upset Jon Jones... I think he's gonna give Jones some problems."

THE MMA GURU

Zane Simon Expert Lean picked Mar 2, 2023 (2 days before fight)

Ciryl Gane

Zane favors Gane, assuming the fight becomes a slow-paced kickboxing match where Gane's consistency, jab, and kicking variety give him the edge. He doubts Jones's wrestling will be effective due to poor entries and a clench that has deteriorated. He notes Gane's defensive flaws and potential unforced errors (like a bad takedown attempt) could cost him, but overall sees Gane as the more reliable striker at range.

"I favor Gane in this fight. My only real concern with picking him is maybe Jones has really worked on his wrestling."
