OSP: We can both do some sh*t
Ovince Saint Preux didn’t think he would be the guy called to fight Jones, but now with the biggest fight of his life in front him, the number sixth ranked light heavyweight believes he has the tools to beat Jones and win the interim title.

Guys like that, you break them out of their pattern, and that’s what I intend to do, he said. If I have the opportunity to finish him, I’m going to go ahead and take that opportunity. I guarantee you, he knows, as well as his camp knows, I can do that if the opportunity presents itself.
He’s a beast, and I’m a beast, too. We both can do some beast (expletive).
Saint Preux coach Joey Zonar said Jones’ recent legal troubles probably won’t slow the ex-champ down in the cage, but if it does, that’s a plus one on my side.
While Saint Preux’s strikes early in the fight undoubtedly represent the greatest threat to Jones, the 32-year-old fighter said he’s trying to be smarter in the way he measures force.
I might not put you away, but you’re going to feel it, and your knees are going to buckle, Saint Preux said. And if I hit you with a third one, it will put you away. That’s the happy medium I’ve been working on.
