Not sure I'd jump to that extreme. Dana is Dana. I.e. power hungry, won't let anyone push him around (minus Lorenzo/Frank) and wants to establish precedents imo. He's pissed off fromt he neg. press the UFC has had with Greg's camp via the "running" and with this, he went over the edge. Additionally, Jones' DUI charge after a Bud Light sponsorship didn't help. Really, Dana seems to just be pissed off. Still hasn't sunk to boxing, i.e. fixing matches for the betterment of the UFC and allowing constant avoidance of opponents in the same weight class. |

I will say I am more excited to see Aldo/Edgar fight than Aldo/Koch. I cant explain why?

since I know it will be asked:
Under NAC 467.259, the UFC seems to be obligated to reimburse all of those fighters under their bout agreements…

He already has endorsement deals, he doesn't "Win" them, so again your wrong. I do see where Jones is coming from, but his camp is not 10000% right at all. You are the champ and should defend your belt against anybody that steps up. Only declined because he swore he wouldnt let Sonnen "talk" his way to title and his ego got in the way. Virtually everyone in the UFC has weighed in on this on twitter or some other way and the overwhelming majority is "I would of taken the fight", so you are in the minority for your stance. To the game plan part, that is the most over-rated part of this. Listen to top level guys or girls even (see Ronda Rousey) who say they don't even use gameplans because you never know how the opponent is going to attack you. They train their aspects, work on some strengths of opponent. Its not like Chael is some complex fighter either, he is a wrestler, you don't think Jones would have been working on his wrestling? Totally asinine to use "gameplan" as an excuse. Many, many UFC fighters have taken fights on short notice and won. |

UFC 152 is on. First fight was impressive by Swanson. Should be a good card.

Jones finishes him with a submission. Dude is 25 years old and might already be the best.

I don't understand how Jones' arm didn't break there. Pretty good card, this one.

He said his arm is numb. That's probably a way worse sign than pain, lol.
