    Re: how to properly use jon jones?

    I like how he works. I think he should have more MT combos, but aside form that I think he plays realistically, in the sense that you have to mix his tools to succeed. If you try to play with a basic stand up, you'll be at a disadvantage against powerhouse strikers.

    I'm basically repeating what I heard about him, though. I actually never won with him. lol

      But that’s nothing like how he actually fights

      He dismantles powerhouses as well because it’s difficult AF to stay inside against him.

      JJ in UFC 2 felt way more like the real Jon Jones.

        Are you serious? He had a lot more power than Glover Teixeira, didn't he? He was crazy OP, or am I remembering it wrong?

          His power was OP

          Everything else felt good. I didnt even use him but fighting against him was fun because he had all the strengths of the real JJ.

            He can be used but if your talking striking, using his range and distance is critical for success. Irl Jones is a good striker cuz he knows how to use that reach well and thats what you have to do in the game when striking with him, which is realistic imo. In the pocket with him dont try to slug it out...use short strikes and get back outside or clinch up.

              I dont know what his movement stat is but i feel like it should be extremely high for fighters who know how to stay on the outside

                Yh he does feel a bit slow, but if you can fight at range with him he can be very effective striking. He has all the tools in his moveset to fight at distance, as he does irl. And remember Jones biggest strength is grappling. Dont be a bro and just try to strike with him. Mix it up. Go to the clinch, go to the tds and do some work from top too.

                  He is more effective at grappling in real life but he's not near as slow as he is in the game. He has like literally no power in real life so they can lower his power even more if they want but he's not that slow at striking. If you throw a punch or kick it feels like it takes forever for the animation to finish and you get killed with counters. I love his clinch takedowns tho. I always go for the thai clinch and use his trips
