Yeah the UFC would totally sabotage their own real draw besides Conor right now, makes total sense. #OnnitWoke

Cormier statement

Upon hearing the news, Cormier briefly spoke to MMAFighting.com exclusively about the news:

“It's hard to find words to describe how I'm feeling right now,” Cormier said. “I'm disappointed to hear the news. It's very emotional.

“We as athletes are entitled to due process, and I will refrain from saying much more until I know exactly what happened.

“In my mind, on July 29, I competed and I lost. I thought Jon Jones was the better man that day. I don't know what to think anymore. I can’t believe we are going through all of this again. We will see what happens next.

“Thank you to all my fans who have supported me during this dark time. I love you all very much.”

Not sure if this was already answered, what happens to gamblers wins? Obviously the winner changed because the guy was now disqualified, so what happens to the winnings from the event?

It is ruled a no contest. No contests go to the bookies in my experience.

Edit: Obviously JOnes bets aren't getting their money taken, but Cormier betters aren't getting anything.
 
If anybody ever bets on Jones again, it should be "how long until his next fuckup"

Guarantee yall won't have to wait long for payout, no matter what

Stay woke, friends.

Don't buy this for a second.

A lot of guys using. But Jones became insanely ripped. But with the increased testing, he looked much softer for DC/Jones 1 and against Ovince.

He tried once to blame Cialis or dick pills which makes no sense for a 28 year old guy in peak physical performance. Now it is a conspiracy and someone set him up? He knows he fucked up again.

Look I think even Conor is using. Look at his musculature increase coupled with his hair loss. Some guys are smarter and get away with it. But USADA and UFC new testing means a lot of people who were under the radar are getting popped.
 
Ahhhhh. I see now. It's all apart of the Illuminati/Flat-Earth/Lizard People/Mole Men conspiracy theories. We must indeed stay woke 👽
 
Stay woke, friends.

Sorry, but calling a grown ass man a kid is a pet peeve of mine.

As Greg Jackson once eloquently said when asked - after one of Jones' many fuck ups - "why don't you talk to the kid, guide him, talk some sense into him?", Jon Jones is a grown ass [motherfucking] man. He ain't no kid. He is a grown ass man."

He is responsible for his actions, and that includes what he is taking into his a body. A kid is someone like Greco Roman junior world champion Kamal Bey, a 19 year old ridiculously raw talented world champion in a sport the US doesn't even have the infrastructure for. That's someone who needs to be guided and talked to. I would even say JJ was a kid that needed guidance when he first came into the UFC and won the championship at 23. He's not a kid now and he wasn't a kid 2, 3 years ago either. That's like saying Ryan Lochte was a kid when he made shit up about being jacked at gunpoint in Rio.
 
I read this article about sociopaths once, and apparently they straight up have a dysfunction in their brains where they don't consider consequences before they do things.

DC is a class act, and it sucks that he has to go through this again.

My gut reaction was, 'holy shit JJ did it again,' then it went to 'he can't be this dumb right?' Now, I just wait for the process to play out because this entire DC-JJ ordeal has been one weird fucking ride.
If 2017 has taught us anything, it's that yes - someone can be that dumb.

I don't even understand how this is possible. You have to cycle this shit for months then put off of it. All of which are easily detectable by urinalysis and blood tests. A dude like him, who can't be trusted based on his past, should be tested often. I mean if this is true, this is a serious infraction on the UFC. Considering how poorly they handled the obvious concussion Cormier had. This kind of shit can not ever happen!
 
No one is reall6 shocked by this. Some of us just hoped he got his head on right again.

Doesn't look like he does.

I do believe he should be banned.

He's a disgrace. I'm looking for him to be a role model or anything. Just a good man that takes responsibility for his actions.

I disagree.
Here is what happened.

Jon Jones went to sleep the night before the fight. An Alien got access to his room and injected his booty with steroids.
 
FUCKING GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKING FUCK.

I wanted to believe. Was getting all excited about the fucking GOAT coming back clean.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOOOU JON FUCKING JONES.

And jesus christ... imagine DC right now.

i thought dc was embarassing when he refused to shook jones' hand after his loss, but this statement is pretty good
Dude. Have you ever had a concussion? I wouldn't suggest it if you think you have all your senses and thoughts a few minutes later. I suggest you google hockey players who get concussed and forget how to skate and stand up.
