He didn't go into it knowing he is going to lose, otherwise why show up? he was confident in his ability and he had a gameplan but what the fight showed was that Jones went against the grain and started mixing things up and didn't stand there trying to pick Sonnen apart. Sonnen defended the 1st takedown and then got taken down twice and of course when Jones is on top with his 6'4 225lb frame it's hard to escape.
