In MMA, sometimes the insanity out of the cage is just as entertaining as what happens in it.

Jon Jones fails another drug test, but USADA thinks it's just residue from a previous drug test failure. So it was a half-drug test failure. Something you only see with Jon Jones (like his previous suspension being reduced based on his willingness to be an undercover drug spy for USADA or something - no word if he's caught anybody yet.) But Nevada isn't willing to license him to fight. EVEN Nevada, with their glorious history of strictly enforced rules and regulations in the world of combat sports.

California was more receptive to hosting a major UFC event, so, the UFC did the obvious thing, move the whole show, including all 25 other fighters and their families and coaches, to Los Angeles on two weeks notice. Which really sucks for everyone who made travel plans to come to Vegas, which, for these Vegas shows, is probably most of the fans.
