bjornmma1 Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 A few days ago, I picked the legendary Jon Hess up from the FA-list. First of all I was sorry to see that PBR did not retire him and added him to his HOF. Hess is one of the 3 or 4 fighters that had an untouchable aura surrounding him when I was playing as a noob manager. http://www.mmatycoon.com/gallery/0/13976539209288.png "Don Mess Wit" Jon Hess So my question is, hang up his gloves, or see if another legendary oldtimer would be interested in one final throwdown for the ages....? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBR Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 He had some amazing power just if his chin could of held up -- at 40 now it would be hard to see him doing good but just never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazzypants Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 I say give him a chance. Worst case it's another ko or two on his record, best case he makes a title run. Also, 40 ain't so old for a heavyweight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 I don't think he has it in him anymore but then again you are that kind of manager who does this with fighters who are "done" in everyone's eyes but yours. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, 40 ain't so old for a heavyweight A title run is not an option. It is either one fight or nothing. His physicals have dropped to a point beyond saving. If his physicals would be anywhere near decent, I would really have considered a full contract. I don't think he has it in him anymore but then again you are that kind of manager who does this with fighters who are "done" in everyone's eyes but yours. Thanks, I am flattered Me personally, in his possible retirement fight, I see him knock out Puno,but yeah... I will see if any big names step up, oldtimers or not and then go from there. Logic would dictate to retire him,but I do not always like logic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsieur.Camara Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Mase Force is 38 and has 2 fights left in his contract at KO. If you want to sign him to UFC or Daredevil Mase would love to meet him in either organization. You could even get a descent warm up fight or just train your physicals and they would meet around Christmas. If that works for you I can get the boys to work something out.

JHL Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 I would consider Jon Hess vs Lexington Snape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
