DC is just saying this to make himself look better. The more invincible that Jones appears, the less of detriment it is losing to him twice.
DC fought Rumble, Jonesx2, Stipex3, Hendo and Frank Mir despite starting mma in his 30s….you are really gonna hold not fighting Brock over his head…he fought all those assassins, I genuinely doubt he would be afraid of a meathead like Lesnar…Which is rich considering Fatso tried to duck the entire HW division for a Brock fight that never happened
No, he's not.DC is just saying this to make himself look better. The more invincible that Jones appears, the less of detriment it is losing to him twice.
You just defined flavor of the month.Has nothing to do with flavors of the month you maybe missed actual fights happened. Blaydes broke Tom's leg so nobody cared to see him fight Jon. Then Pav ko Blaydes and people were excited about him fighting Jones. Tom has now ko Pav so everyone wants him to fight Jones not the guy who suffered a ko loss.

Who did he duck in particular ? He fought Rumble 2x. Stipe 3x. Jones 2x. Who did he duck ? I don't remember no ducking from DC.Which is rich considering Fatso tried to duck the entire HW division for a Brock fight that never happened
Jones made sure DC was retired before going to HWDC would know.
He himself already once fled to HW to avoid defending against Jones (again).
What an excellent strawman.Jones made sure DC was retired before going to HW
He even said as much
And his head has been held high ever since like the champchamphugehugeballsballs that he isWhat an excellent strawman.
Meanwhile, in something that actually happened, DC was the reigning LHW champion when Jon returned and DC refused to defend against him so they had to make Jon vs Gus 2 for the vacant belt instead.
Then the night before he was to be stripped DC pettily vacated the title himself so that history wouldn't officially record him as having been stripped.
"I’d rather walk away this way, with my head held high as it always has been, than have the history books say I was stripped."

Yes, huge balls to fight Lewis instead of the returning Jones.And his head has been held high ever since like the champchamphugehugeballsballs that he is
They asked DC on a months notice to fight Lewis to save the MSG card. Short notice defense of a belt. Something Jones would know nothin about. Why should DC do Jones any favors anyway after he juiced himself out of UFC 200Yes, huge balls to fight Lewis instead of the returning Jones.
Even though that's the complete opposite of DC's quote in the OP where DC says you just need to take away these guys power and they're much less risky fights than fighting complete fighters.
And Jon was already known to returning before that given his suspension was coming up. In fact he was even eligible to compete as well by this point.They asked DC on a months notice to fight Lewis to save the MSG card
Jones vs Vitor says hi. As does Jones vs Machida 2 which was the initial fight that card until Machida turned it down so Jon accepted Vitor who took it.Short notice defense of a belt. Something Jones would know nothin about.

DC decided he instead wouldn't go back down to LHW.

Also Jones vs Cormier when Cormier replaced the injured Gus until Jon also got injured and their fight moved to a full notice bout a few months later.
Also I'm guessing you specifically said title defence so you could avoid that Jones vs Shogun and Jones vs OSP, two title bouts, were short notice.
Cause DC was the reigning LHW champion and had an obligation to defend that belt.
Take away defending against Jones if you really want, but then you're just left with him also refusing to defend against Gus 2 instead of Jones. Gus who happens to be the only other guy who'd given him a tough fight at that p
