Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Since I only watch Jets games and RedZone, does Fox always promote the UFC that much during a football game? I saw that Connor McGregor commercial at least ten times during the playoff game yesterday. Depends. This was a subject of discussion for the last Fox show. Sometimes, they hammer TUF home and do reads for FS1 shows. Maybe they're placing more emphasis on the FS1 programming over the ones on the main station.
Guest Edwin Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Pancrase has signed former Bellator 2 time featherweight tournament finalist and Sengoku featherweight champ. Marlon Sandro to a multi fight deal. He's expected to make his Pancrase return on 4/26 against an unannounced opponent.
Zero Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 A third fight after a guy won the first 2 isn't really my cup of tea usually, but I'm looking foward to Benson/Cerrone.
epwar Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Looks like Dana finally found the IFL tapes - TUF 21 will be American Top Team vs. Blackzillians. http://www.mmalatestnews.com/tuf-21-fresh-look-ultimate-fighter/
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I got you by a month. I know no one gives a shit about it anymore, but there haven't been any details released about the next season of TUF, have there? I know they usually start it up in Aprilish, but I can't even remember hearing rumblings for the next coaches/weight classes. They may be doing Blackzilians vs. American Top Team next. Maybe it's a Fight Pass only thing. I dunno. 1
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 According to Greg Savage just now on Cheap Seats, Bobby Lashley hurt his hand and King Mo might be replacing him vs. James Thompson. Bellator is just waiting for Thompson's response.

epwar Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Jon Jones entering rehab for cocaine; tested positive in a random test last month. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mma-cagewriter/ufc-champion-jon-jones-enters-into-a-drug-treatment-facility-214520325.html?soc_src=mediacontentstory&soc_trk=tw
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 TBH sprewellrimz told me Jon Jones was doing coke right around the time he joined Jackson's so this is no shock to me.
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Hey, at least you know now! BTW, rimz said coke and ecstasy. That's just how Jon chooses to get down. Josh Gross @yay_yee 50s51 seconds ago Per @KevinI, @JonnyBones enters drug treatment. Tested + for cocaine in early Dec. Gotta say, not surprised one bit. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mma-cage That pretty much confirms it.
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Josh Gross @yay_yee 43s4 One of MMA's worst kept secrets is that Jon Jones loves to party. One of the reasons many people think he's fake.
TheVileOne Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I'm confused did they try to hide the test results or did they just come back now? Is Jones stripped of the title?
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I believe they just came back. No, I don't think this will result in him losing the belt since it was out-of-competition. http://www.ufc.com/news/UFC-Statement-on-Jon-Jones
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Josh Gross @yay_yee 44s44 seconds ago Don't care if Jones did coke. Lotta people do. Early on I was told Jones is his own worst enemy. We'll see. His life and career on the line. What Gross is saying is essentially everything rimz (especially the bolded part) told me.
epwar Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I'm confused did they try to hide the test results or did they just come back now? Is Jones stripped of the title? They found out Dec. 23. He passed a subsequent test.
epwar Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Josh Gross @yay_yee 44s44 seconds ago Don't care if Jones did coke. Lotta people do. Early on I was told Jones is his own worst enemy. We'll see. His life and career on the line. Well, at least we finally found someone to defeat Jon Jones.
Elsalvajeloco Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I just figured he would never get caught after several months passed. Then I totally put out of my mind. I guess I was wrong.
Joe Lucia Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Makes you think Cerrone was throwing a little shade with this comment from earlier in the day... Even when it came down to logistics, simple things like cutting weight twice in three weeks, Cerrone said he barely considered (or cared) about any potential ramifications."I don't have an answer for you on that one," Cerrone replied, chuckling again. "[That's] probably damaging, for sure. But so is cocaine and alcohol, so I think this is a little less.
TheVileOne Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 So if you fail a test for cocaine out of competition, you are still allowed to fight a month later? 1
Hollywood Cibernetico Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Who knew Jones was a coke head? First the DUI and now this?
Zero Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Josh Gross apparently knew. Doesn't seem like he's the only one. Seen many media say it was a pretty known rumor for years.
hammerva Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Jon Jones entering rehab for cocaine; tested positive in a random test last month. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mma-cagewriter/ufc-champion-jon-jones-enters-into-a-drug-treatment-facility-214520325.html?soc_src=mediacontentstory&soc_trk=tw All I can say is "Beat that Chael Sonnen" Given that Jon Jones is the #1 MMA guy right now I doubt that the UFC is going to do anything about it. Hell they are bringing back people who beat the shit out of women with a quarter of the ability Love listening to all these "MMA reporters" who now love to tell people that they always knew he was a cokehead. Well good to know that your credibly means so little that you would hide this story in order to stay in Dana White's best friends list
