That's Dave Sholler, not Dana.

In the middle of it all was UFC director of PR Dave Sholler, who had the unfortunate and unexpected task of trying to separate the two.

LSU was looking at giving Cormier a scholarship for football and he didn't go.. they should root for Jones TBH

Hopefully for Jones there will be people in the ring helping him out of headlocks too.....
There's like 10 guys tugging on them, no clue how you can put any weight into being put into a headlock in that situation.

That is so irrelevant to the actual fight coming up.

He HATES him and Greg Jackson for being huge pussies and turning down a fight with Chael which caused them to cancel an event, I think it was like UFC 151.

He's gonna act pissed but they just bumped their PPV numbers up a bit with this and really gave the UFC something to promote this fight on besides it just being 2 great fighters. So he's probably smiling deep down in his pockets


Maybe but I know he hates this shite because he wants to make MMA a legitimate sport.

Um Jones did fight Sonnen at 159

Sonnen didn't deserve that fight either

Jones forced UFC 151 to be canceled because he wouldn't fight Chael after Hendo got hurt IIRC. Dana was super pissed.

quote:

A week before UFC 151, UFC 151 had no headliner fight. So White canceled the whole thing and blamed it on Jones and his coach, Greg Jackson.

"UFC 151 will be remembered," White said, "as the event Jon Jones and Greg Jackson murdered."

Sonnen was like 20 seconds away from winning, all he had to do was make it out of the first round and the doctors would have stopped it because Chael broke JJs foot so badly!

Holy fricking shite, can't believe they just did that.....definitely not fake or staged. This was the complete opposite from that Klitschko bullshite the other day. Jones & DC legitimately want to cause harm to each other.

Really hoping there aren't any injuries leading up to this card.....whole event is stacked

Here's the video of Jones calling DC weak immediately after their little scuffle. Wonder if either will get fined or get in any trouble....

Jones isn't going to destroy Cormier. Cormier will win if this thing is on the ground.

Jones will win if he keeps it as a standup match.

And this is definitely real. DC hates Jones.

Was Jones complaining about his eye after the scuffle? Did the stitches open back up?

Like them both.

1. Not fake
2. Jones looked shaken up after the fight, and kinda douchey
3. Jones SHOULD win, DC been at it what 3 yrs? DC has a real good chance to upset.

Link to issue with eye?

I am amazed so many people think Cormier will wreck Jones. I'm not saying he can't win. But Jones is the champ for a reason.
