In UFC 128 we will see Jon Jones face off against Shogun Rua as the main event. Who will win in the main event? Any guess would be a good guess when you have two stars like Rua and Jones facing each other. Will Jones unorthodox style throw Rua off? I don't think so though, since, Rua did not fall for the unorthodox style of Machida and literally beat the tar out of the dragon twice. Jones will have to throw something pretty clever tricks to out strike Rua, which I see him having a hard time doing.
Jones however has a tremendous wrestling advantage as he has taken everyone down so far he has faced. Rua could end up on his back and eat some pretty deadly elbows if he can't rise back up.
Nevertheless, Rua is at his worse after facing an injury and hellish ring rust which Jones does not suffer from. I am going with Jones on this one, saying TKO in the second rnd.
Now, if a healthy Shogun shows up and is not effected by Ring Rust I'd probably choose him, but, I am going with the most likely more healthier, Jones Bones!
