Jackson/Wink's best damage control?

The hilarious part is that guy's record. He is on suspension himself for cage grabbing, multiple groin shots, and biting his opponent multiple times. Thats who I want defending my honor.

Wow, this news makes me sad, kind of like when I was a kid and Tyson lost. I do not want to naive but man I hope that test was contaminated, I really want Jones to be legit. Crazy sports news to wake up to, this and the Celtics/Cavs trade.

Well, as of right now I am giving him the benefit of the doubt on the Dick Pill. Mostly because I like the nickname Jon "Boner" Jones, however if this latest test proves to be a legit positive then he will lose me as a fan. Still won't like DC though, fuck that guy.

I dunno why everyone thinks this makes him a piece of shit. Like Diaz said, everyone is on steroids. The few people who might not be are the people who are ranked 37th in the division making 5k a year that nobody gives a fuck about.

This is a problem for the sport, and not because he tested positive. Letting Mitrione, Moose, and Rory go because they asked for what likely amounted to another 20k is looking dumber by the day.

House of cards!

Add in Benson, Larkin, Bader, and the all time Goat Chael.

I can honestly say I have watched a few Bellator cards this year and did enjoy them.

I hope Scott can keep poaching and building.

What I found most funny about the whole Jon Jones thing is the statement his manger / camp made the day this got reported

We are all at a complete loss for words right now. Jon, his trainers, his nutritionists and his entire camp have worked tirelessly and meticulously the past 12 months to avoid this exact situation.

Worked tirelessly and meticulously for a year to avoid what situation? Jon Jones taking steroids or covering it up for him lol? It does make you wonder how he passes all these random drug tests, then fails the one on fight night though. The one test he knows exactly when he's gotta take it.

Manager had a fairly big interview about whole thing recently also.
Agent: Jon Jones ‘devastated,’ believes failed drug test to be ‘tainted supplement’

edit: And yeah, that's right, they are going with "tainted supplement"... again

You can hear it from Chael. Hits more or less the same point with the same conclusion.


MMA fans are pretty educated about this juicing shit now too, lots of meatheads and friends of meatheads. Fitness and body/strength training has a record level of interest in it. People who will never use steroids in a hobby still educate themselves on the subject as they investigate it. Even a retard can figure out Turinabol is not in any supplement or food supply with a limited amount of legwork.

I realize USADA will only punish him more for "aggravating circumstances" if he admits to taking steroids under the USADA agreement. The UFC doping liaison from the press conference seemed to indicate that "aggravating circumstances" can send a ban way north of 4 years on a second offense.

Questioning chain-of-custody and procedure might have been a better beat, although Cung Le is still tied up in lawsuits after taking that play and he still hasn't been able to clear his name. It doesn't seem to work out very well if you want to fight again, lol....Well fuck it. Tainted supplement it is then... Cheers to hoping the UFC does sue him for his payout as rumored and then after he is stripped they cut his contract.


It would be cool if the system allowed him to acknowledge, explain, and apologize in an effort to LOWER his sentence, but unfortunately that is not how the USADA program is designed.

interesting Hunt just posted about giving Junior dos Santos the benefit of doubt as it was 1st time
but UFC removed him from he ranking just hours after the announcement,
While apparently going to wait weeks or months as Jones plays out

Gat Sports who had to put out a press release in 2016 that tainted drug wasn't from them
Dropped him after his suspension but resigned him with his reinstatement
no statement from them yet, but jon has been removed from their webpage

Sounds like DC is actually coming to Jon's defense. DC comments start about 4:39

EDIT: I FAIL, thanks Fedor!

it even says "jon's manager malki kawa" in giant letters right before the audio

Hah, good catch I am a fucking idiot. Multi tasking at work and just listening,not watching. That dude sounds like a lot like DC, I did think the "client" comment was weird (makes way more sense now) but I thought it was DC referring to working for the UFC. My bad.

Jds is Brazilian, if you notice ufc will do anything to screw over Brazilian. Even though m not a fan of any Brazilian.
