Rashad: Anderson Silva would beat Jon Jones

At the UFC 138 Fight Club Q&A this weekend, featured fighter Rashad Evans was asked who would win a hypothetical superfight between Anderson Silva and Jon Jones.

Anderson would win. I think he would catch Jon standing up because I think Jon does a lot of crazy stuff but, fundamentally, sometimes he does it just to do it.

“But I think Anderson has a reason, like Anderson, fundamentally and technically, is better in that respect and I think he would catch (Jones) doing something stupid.

“If the fight was to go a little bit longer and Jon used his wrestling then I think the fight may go to Jon. But for the most part, early on in the fight, Anderson would catch Jon trying to do something crazy.”
