This maybe a pre-mature point to bring up as Jones clearly took this part in the tournament, but I likely won't follow this tournament to the end. JBJ beat 4 former LHW champions, consecutively, and was not yet in his prime, but the other opponents were still high quality fighters that were still a threat. He went on to defeat 5 other challengers after that while having only one legit challenge in Gustafsson, and IMO, beat JBJ. The only person on this side of the bracket that could challenge JBJ for greatest champion is possibly Penn. Penn also had an extremely competitive division and fight against former champs in his own Class. This will be interesting.
