This can't be life man  

Huge Bones fan but you can't really defend him anymore.

Could be one of the greatest talents gone to waste, such a shame...

And what's even crazier is that he could retire today and still go down as the greatest fighter who's ever lived.

I really wanted to see him at HW man

 

[red81]

I knew it was too good to be true.

Not even to injury, but rather something that's controllable. Smfh

What are teh chances Conor vs Nate gets moved to this Saturday 

aldo/edgar fight is finished
lights goes off at t-mobile arena
a laugh plays through the speakers
conor's music hits as he enters the octagon
dana white rings the bell for the featherweight title to be defended

 

[spizike231]

I'm legit sad man. Like legitimately sad

Honestly man this is exactly how I feel as well.

Not only as a fan of MMA and the UFC, but as a Jon Jones fan.. this is damn near heartbreaking.

Like cmon man I stood behind this dude saying it was all a bunch of mistakes, he's gonna better himself, he's gonna get his belt back, biggest card in UFC history, etc. for THIS?!

What a waste of pure talent and opportunity in a human, at this point.

I'm pissed and sad at the same damn time.

Feels batman.

Like dude is my absolute favorite. And it saddens me we may never see him fight again.

Dude should have just embraced the heel role from the beginning

I mean I know it won't happen, but at this point you almost have to cut Jon Jones

 

[justsole90]

Wow can't believe this, was so hyped for sat. :/

 

[green rhino123]

 

[illphillip]

Not sure what we do with this now

 

[af1 1982]

I mean I know it won't happen, but at this point you almost have to cut Jon Jones

Dana was saying it could potentially be a 2 year suspension.

At that point, JBJ might as well retire and become the Ricky Williams of MMA

 

[spizike231]

Even as a Jones fan, if he's found dirty for something he was obviously just trying to sneak in, I don't know what else you can do but cut him.

dude was supposed to be the new era of amazing MMA fighters to me.. I remember watching his reign to the belt.. and now this.

Ya cut me deep, Jon. Ya cut me real deep.

 

[DadNboujee]

Nate was right

 

[carver]

I mean I know it won't happen, but at this point you almost have to cut Jon Jones

I honestly think this will do it.. He was already getting pooped on for scrapping 151. Then he get's the DUI's, drugs, hitting a pregnant woman... now screwing the biggest card in UFC history. 

Dana looked like he was ready to kill somebody 

 

[carver]

I just bet a coworker today on Jon Jones 

 this fool better not bother me tomorrow.. I'm sad, I'm going to bed. 

 

[LA Diggler]

damn feel bad for DC.

 

[justsole90]

Their options seem to be very very limited . Who really wants to step in a one day notice to fight DC?

Don't even care about Brock headlining 200...

 

[dman14]

so...how does the pay work for this thing for cormier/jones?
does jones forfeit all his money? cormier gets his share right?

DC loses out on possible bonuses and everything that comes with fighting

Pretty much. UFC will pay what they choose to pay DC but it won't even come close to covering the costs of DCs training camp.

Feel bad for DC man, he seems like a legit good dude.

Smh my meat was all hard after watching that embedded with Miesha in a bikini. Was browsing to find a vid to fap to.....then this news hits.

Completely killed the mood man. Had candles lit and everything

 

[green rhino123]

brock needs to negotiate for more or threaten to pull out with an "injury"

You're tellin me, I gotta clean up my rose petals I set out in a UFC logo.

Meisha Bae better not fall out of this card somehow. I'm already not buying it now.

 

[illphillip]

I assumed they got "show" money if the opponent dropped out.

Nah?

 

[danger style]

For **** sake
