        So Jon Jones had samples flagged in August and September that we never heard about.

        So that's obviously why the UFC changed their policy of announcing when fighters get flagged. (They changed policy the end of September)

        The UFC and USADA have announced a dramatic change in how they will announce potential doping violations for athletes going forward.

            Sucks how all this stuff is overshadowing the fight and also the Nunes/Cyborg fight. That's a legit WMMA superfight. Winner of that is indeed the baddest woman on the planet imo.

                Gus doesn't really have a chance in my mind. Looking at him at weigh ins, he isn't in great fighting shape although he isn't getting caught cheating like Jones. He also needs to use the DC approach and get inside, but I don't see him doing that.

                Jones has his PEDs, so his confidence will be there. I hope the layoff and pressure gets to him, but with PEDs and his length he is not very beatable.


                New ref for the fight, Herb has a mystery injury. I'm hopeful Jones gets immediate point taken away for eye poking.

                  What do we think about the fact that the crowd was "behind" Jon at the press conference?

                    Was it really open to public? They also started that way, but it didn't last.

                    I wouldn't put it past the UFC & Jones to supply the crowd. Plus most of the media is scared of Dana, so they don't ask tough questions. A Swedish reporter and Ariel backed by ESPN were the only ones asking the tough questions.

                      I don't like Gus chances either, but I hope he can pull it off. Because he's so rangy, doubt he'll be trying to get inside. It'll be similar to the first fight imo where both guys are fighting at their range. Sux Jones has his PED's though...really tarnishes everything he's done imo.

                        If anything; this is MMA and it's LHW. And Gus has more than a puncher's chance.

                          They changed it retroactively to July, just when Jones started failing. Then told us about the change at the end of September.

                          Now we find out CSAC wasn't notified of Jones's failures at his hearing to be cleared to fight at 232. So CSAC couldn't have reviewed anything since the fight wasn't being moved until the UFC met with NSAC on the 20th or so.

                          More and more holes. I really hope this makes the UFC clean house or kills them. In any other sports league, there would be plenty of investigations. UFC is going to continue to cover it up.

                            At this point I dnt even care anymore tbh. I just hope the MMA gods bless Gus with the W. If Jones wins, I cant even respect it. He's just a cheater in my eyes. Either ban the ped's or let everyone take them lol. Then its fair game.

                              But that's the thing ...somehow some way the judges took into account the leg kicks by Jones I mean that's the only plausible reason as to that unanimous decision other than a clear daylight Robbery . Maybe I'm bugging .

                              I don't know if Gus can keep his range and dodge those oblique kicks . Jones and his team would have studied tape of the fight and seen how Gus had a lot of success slipping and hitting Jones when he engaged .

                              But with all this doping and **** ...Gus might get killed in there.

                              Sucks that the Amanda fight is getting overshadowed.

                              By the way had to double check to see BJ Penn on the card [emoji54]

                                p_rushing is on point here. When you start looking into it more and more inconsistencies start popping up.

                                -Jon goes belly up and got a reduced sentence, and then turns around and says he will never snitch, and away the sentence goes?

                                -So low levels of Turinabol metabolite can stay in your body forever and pulsate? what's to stop someone from microdosing then?

                                -USADA's own website stated that this could happen and that you would not be legible to fight as long as you had it in your body.

                                -mid level fighters get ****ed over, but stars get special treatment. wait, wasn't this about a level playing field? if money helps you fight the case, aren't we back to "unfair" advantages?


                                USADA is a joke, and what the **** happened to the UFC?
