I follow MMA pretty well, but I'm wondering if this Jones/Cormier beef is legit.

You guys think this is staged for PPV buys, or is this real??

They dont like each other. I think they respect each others abilities but they dont like each other personally. I think the brawl last August was legit also.

Bleacher Report has an excellent Cormier feature as well.

Has to be PR with Segal; I get he was a karate guy back in the day but he looks like he hasn't been in a gym for a decade. What secrets can he possibly know?

That aside, I am very much looking forward to the fight tomorrow night. I just hope it lives up to the hype.

He has an Aikido black belt, so he possibly could be teaching him some wrist holds in which he can quickly break a wrist. There is some back story where Jones disrespected him in the past and now he wanted to share 3 secret moves with DC.

He has been a media hog in the past with the Spider and Machida front kicks claiming he taught them the move.

I'm so pissed off right now. I can't watch the fight because my dad has to watch the Steelers game. I hope they lose by 30+. I've been waiting so long for this, and now I can't even watch it. Just my luck.
