Oh shit, Mario Yamazaki just accepted a fight against Michael Chiesa in a grappling match. UFC fans are probably more excited for this fight than Jones vs DC 2.

Yamazki shouldn't be getting involved in this shit.

That being said he would probably destroy Chiesa

 

[Fox318]

Mayweather McGregor is definitely stealing the oxygen in the room
214 is probably the best card of the year and there's little to no interest

Dana hasn't even hit the media shows to promote the fight.

Nice, when is this happening.

 

[RBelong2Us]

Chiesa is a bitch

what a world

 

[Maklershed]

Is that just for funsies or are Chiesa and Yamasaki beefing?

I hope Yamasaki fairs better than Nick the Tooth vs Lauzon.

I never thought I would hear girls day and Gabi Garcia in one sentence in my life. Unbelievable.

 

[RBelong2Us]

Were elderly Japanese women getting beat up, involved ?

 

[ldcommando]

They cut before it, but gabi did have her mouthpiece on. She was ready for some action.

 

[FUME5]

I hope whoever refs the Yamasaki fight makes a real shit call.

 

[juliushandle]

Yamasaki better be fighting in a gi. NoGi, no chance.

 

[RBelong2Us]

Jake Shields has Ws over Woodley and Maia haha

 

[Yaari]

“Would I fight Jon Jones? Anytime, anywhere,” Lesnar told the Associated Press. “Right now he should be worried about D.C. on Saturday night.”

[FUME5]

We've already had UFC 8, with amazing fights like this and this.

But hey, let the two drug cheats fight, fuck it.

Brock would get tagged in the face once and fold like a lawn chair.

 

[pixelation]

Jon on Undisputed Live
Somethings off about Jon. Cant put my finger on it but Ill be looking forward to Saturday.

Yep, also he said that Cormiers attacks have been getting to him and... he definitely is not his usual self, i think Cormier wins this Saturday.

 

[RBelong2Us]

Dana says he still hasn't talked to Jones since UFC 200...smh

What does that accomplish? F*cking goof...

 

[Syder]

Cormier stepping on the scales on Friday is going to be a tense moment

 

[Rhaknar]

man this saturday's show sounds great, cant wait.

 

[FUME5]

Haven't they been tracking fighter weight for the last few weeks?

I can't see DC fucking up on the scales for this fight.

 

[Fox318]

I don't know if I was in Dana's position if I would even want to see Jones.

He's cost them more money than he could possible earn at this point.

 

[ApharmdX]

Jones doesn't have that kind of punching power. I actually think that this is a bad matchup for him. Lesnar has all the physical advantages except a 3" reach disadvantage and he's a better wrestler besides. Jones is a crafty fighter though, much better fight IQ, much more experience.

I'd actually like to see this. I could see Lesnar by TKO or Jones by submission.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I don't know if I was in Dana's position if I would even want to see Jones.

You would hope someone in Dana's position would be more professional and less petty. The guy is headlining your biggest card of the year and you are proudly proclaiming that you haven't even spoken to him like some kind of jilted high schooler?

 

[Levito]

I'm not a Jones fan at all but Dana has shown time and time again that he's a petty child.


I still remember when Dana said "No single person has tried to hurt the UFC more than Randy Couture" because Randy had the audacity to work with Bellator on that TV show AFTER Randy had retired from the UFC. (and he wasn't even fighting for Bellator)

 

[Tater Tot]

They should make UFC+ with no USADA

I want roid rage Bork vs Boner pill poppin Jones

 

[Maklershed]

They should make UFC+ with no USADA

That's called Bellator.

 

[Tater Tot]

I thought you got tested in bellator though? I Could be wrong

 

[Syder]

If UFC adopted WWE testing, part-timers wouldn't get tested at all.

 

[Maklershed]

I thought you got tested in bellator though? I Could be wrong

Not by usada. Not only that but they seemingly do all their fights where rules and regulations regarding testing are most lax i.e. Indian reservation casinos, England, Italy, etc. I think MSG is the only place in their last few fights where it was sanctioned by an athletic commission.

 

[Fox318]

listening to this press conference

fuck jones man

 

[Fox318]

there is zero energy in this press conference

the PPV is the best card of the year and it isn't going to break 300,000 buys

 

[Levito]

This is what happens when the promotion is focused on a stupid clown freakshow boxing match.

 

[Eanan]

What a dreary presser. Compare that to the last BIG one, UFC NY back in November. Night and day.

Also what did poor old Luke Thomas do to piss of Johnny?

 

[RBelong2Us]

Hasn't Luke Thomas defended Jon Jones a ton?

lol...gotta be something Jones heard about him

 

[juliushandle]

Press conference needed Lawler and Cerrone.

 

[Eanan]

Hasn't Luke Thomas defended Jon Jones a ton?

lol...gotta be something Jones heard about him

I think he publicly turned on him after the 200 debacle.

 

[Diprosalic]

i hope D.C smashes Jones to pieces.

 

[Tater Tot]

fuck it im going all in DC beating jones

 

[Chesskid1]

i think we'll see jones fighting very safe & tentative. imagine the first DC-Jones fight but even less action. jones will get the decision.

i'm rooting for DC though. jones being a real ass this promotion cycle, more than usual.

 

[FUME5]

If DC wins, how long until he retires? After the inevitable rubber match with Jones (although maybe not so inevitable) ofc.

If Jones wins, who do you want to see him fight?

 

[iddqd]

Man, Jones fully transitioned into being a larger then life asshole villain.
He even added the Lex Luthor haircut.

Bummer that he is not a shittier fighter. Would feel nice if he gets destroyed Saturday.

Also fuck the people in the audience hollering his garbage.

 

[RBelong2Us]

People are to wound up on him being a dick . His only gift in this world is entertaining us in the cage and he's amazing at it . He's gonna destroy DC

 

[alr1ght]

Will lol when DC misses weight, JBJ beats him, then tests positive in two weeks.

 

[Fox318]

I think he publicly turned on him after the 200 debacle.

He fucked over his fans and himself.

DC may be fat and old but at least his dick works.

And he shows up to fight.

 

[juliushandle]

I don't think DC makes weight. He's too consumed with trying to keep weight to have an advantage against Jones.

 

[FUME5]

Again, didn't they adopt the CSAC recommendations to record their weight 30 days and 10 days out from the fight (for the title fights)?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Will lol when DC misses weight, JBJ beats him, then tests positive in two weeks.

Which will cause Dana to have a nervous breakdown and crown himself interim LHW champion.

 

[Fox318]

Dana doesn't even give a shit anymore.

He just wants the fame and attention. He has the money.

UFC is going to have a crazy bad year from a content and a revenue perspective in a negotiation year and he's off promoting a boxing card.

I get the feeling that Dana staying on as the face of the company was a requisite for the sale. Sure, he owns some sliver of the company still, but how much could he really care at this point? It's blackjack money.

 

[Levito]

Dana, give the fans what they really want: That boxing match with Tito.
