I really hope USADA is right about this one. If they are, if they really caught Jon Jones and stopped the main event of fucking UFC 200, then other fighters will probably think twice about cheating. This just might end up being the most important day in the history of the sport of MMA. [Reply]

Their protocol doesn't allow the to test the 'b' sample until after the initial hearing but I don't doubt their lab results. [Reply]

Ugh.
It's still a stacked card, Edgar/Aldo, Tate/Pena, Velasquez/Browne, all potential great fights. No way Lesnar should top any of those fights for some one off shit show [Reply]
A TON of LHW fighters are bombarding the matchmakers saying they are ready to fight DC on 3 days notice.
They should probably go ahead and make that happen, go ahead and make Lesnar and Hunt the main event, but keep DC on the card if they can. Jon Jones royally fucked up his career, no point in saving DC at this point. [Reply]
I still get to see my favorite fighter Edgar fight the great Jose Aldo. Which is the fight I've been looking forward to the most since this card was announced. [Reply]

Mousassi is the most interesting at this point [Reply]

That shit has been easy as fuck to see, though. Even for us viewers, it's easy to see the douchiness in Jon Jones. It's overlooked because of his elite talent level. Now though, he's fucked himself. [Reply]

If he gets 2 years suspension, Dana will bring him back like nothing ever happened. [Reply]

I was actually just wondering that myself. Maybe so. Who knows, though. With the sale of the company, and the new ownership hinting at a more professional environment (I'm purely speculating based on the comment about reeling Dana in a bit), maybe Jon has finally burned the bridge. He has caused the company a number of major headaches over the last few years. Of course he's also made them a lot of money. [Reply]
