God damn miss Tate. Watch it if only for her face off

Her face changes every few months.
The Aldo - Edgar staredown was all business. Jose looks like he's been getting no sleep at all, eyes looked terrible at the presser.
FFS
you got to be fecking kidding me
Is anyone from the top 15 even available for poor DC to fight? Can anyone even come to Vegas?
Ah Jesus fecking Christ.
Jones career is over imo. Conor is laughing his head off right now

An absolute fool. Imagine Messi or Ronaldo just hitting the self-destruct button like he has.
I'd say Dana has still won. The surprise move for Brock has bailed UFC 200 out insanely. It's been hurt by this no doubt, but it would of been killed if Brock wasn't there to save it.
This has legit killed it for me though. But most UFC die hards I know seem to think it's an epic card regardless.
watching the weigh ins for tomorrow, just realized early weigh-in system has been approved for Vegas.
some great match ups for tomorrow. gonna be epic.

Ffs Jones, DC must be gutted. He was right about what he said about Jones, he will never change.
So disappointing.
Don't USADA test regularly in the build up to fights with UFC now? Wouldn't they have known about this for a while rather than just right now?
The only fight that can match Jones vs DC is Dana and Lorenzo vs. Helwani and Rampage
I doubt it, it'll still be a huge PPV with the Lesnar factor.
According to Dana White if they test and it's positive it's not a case of just giving the result the check it loads so I'd imagine it could realisticaly take a month to do be sure.
Shame for DC, he had obviously prepared for this as you could tell yesterday (he looked like he was about to die he'd cut that much weight!) This would of cost him a load of money, I hope they can find a fight for the guy he does deserve it.
It's bad on Jones part as well but I still refuse to judge fighters hugely for taking steroids as I've said in the past I'm convinced most of them will be taking them.
That makes me feel sorry for him more. He could of thrown Jones under the bus but stays classy. Deserves to be champion and deserves the big pay day of fighting on a Lesnar (and 200) card.

Hopefully he gets a replacement. Mousasi is in shape, ready to fight and would be easy money for DC. I hope he takes it.
If the emotional stress is too much, then just move him to UFC 202. That's gonna be a good PPV for sure.

Time for ilir latifi to get on his horse and ride out to las Vegas
Ffs.
I don't think it's roids though, Rumours are it was something like cocaine.
Out of competition coke would have been fine.
Out of competition testing (which this one was) doesn't test for Marijuana, Cocaine etc.
feck you Jon Jones. You fecked it.
UFC 200 Lesnar v Hunt. Feck off. I'll bet Dana is rueing his decision to take Conor off the card now.
Tell that to Jones himself!
He's only been caught for Cocaine trace in a competition test previously, Ariel Helwani confirmed it that there is no recreational drug testing out of competition. This will be a banned supplement which he will plead ignorance too.
just heard now. feck you Jones you cnut
Just ruined my weekend
Hope they find a fight for DC

He was tested out of competition for cocaine when he shouldn't have been since cocaine isn't a banned substance out of competition. Coupled with the fact they had no right to make it public.
Jones was exploring his legal options before last night so we can guess he wont have the balls to do anything about it now.
Edit: this recent test is out of competition as well.
Get Bisping in there. What a story that would be if he won.
My guess for Jones is a weight loss supplement. All that extra muscle mass has taken its toll on the weight cutting. Crazy story. DC is a true champ and stayed classy even putting the light on his own negative past to help Jones out. Now that's a bigger man.

Just who the fcuk does this fool think he is? He's such a fcuking piece of shit. The most talented MMA fighter of all time just throwing it all away, time and time again.
Hopefully someone steps in to face Cormier. Such a good dude.

I think DC should fight Gustafsson at catchweight. Gus can be pulled off his Sep fight with Blachowicz.
What time is UFC 200 on guys?
As much as I'd expect Bisping to get tooled in a fight, its the only fight that I'd have an interest in on two days notice.Get Bisping in there. What a story that would be if he won.
Don't believe the hype. Anderson Silva and GSP were both better.
