    Not only that, Silva was expected to beat every one of his opponents, whereas Jones was supposed to get his ass handed to him by each and every former champ that he has destroyed.
    Even when I'm 100% certain of a fight outcome, I'm only 75% sure... and of that, there's only a 50/50 shot that I'm right.

    Too many people prefer the blue pill... me, I prefer the red pill.

    actually, the facts say just the opposite, Jones was the favorite in all fights.

    Jon Jones (-450) vs. Rashad Evans (+325)

    Bones" is a -440 favorite against his Brazilian foe. That leaves Machida at +350

    Jon Jones -210 Mauricio “Shogun” Rua +165

    I wasn't speaking about the odds makers... I was speaking of the anti-Jones contingent who have been waiting to see him lose the belt since he won it.

    The way he's going, it just might be.....but to even the playing field, they should give Jones Brandon Vera, Tito Ortiz, and Kryzstoff Soszynski to counter some of Silva's "Gifts".
