Hey everyone, I wanted to address Dana White’s comments from this past weekend, because the truth matters to me and the fans.
Dana, you were heated about why I’m not on the White House card, but let’s clear something up. My team and I were actually negotiating with the UFC for that fight. Real negotiations. I even came down from my original number, and what was I offered in return ? I was lowballed .
Yes, I have arthritis in my hip and it’s painful, but that doesn’t mean I can’t fight.
So let me get this straight, if I had accepted the lowball offer, suddenly my hip would be fine and I’d be on the White House card? That doesn’t make sense.
I even received stem cell treatment last week to get ready for the White House card, and training camp was scheduled to start today. I was preparing to be ready.
I understand business deals fall through sometimes, but going out publicly and saying things that aren’t true isn’t right.
After everything I’ve given to the UFC , the years, the title defenses, the fights , hearing that I’m “done” is disappointing. Especially when as recently as Friday UFC was calling me trying to get me on that White House card for a much lower number.
If the UFC truly feels like I’m done, then I respectfully ask to be released from my contract today.
No more spins, no more games.
Thank you to the real fans who know what’s up.
Bones out.
This redneck I knew who was half tarded used to call em Mooslims! It would always crack us up at work. He legitimately talked about going into a local mosque to fuck em up.
They don’t have any stars. Pereira is the biggest star they have and they don’t even have anyone for him to fight. Gane is boring as shit and I expect Gane to not engage and make it boring.
Gane is fighting for the interim title??? That makes this the FOURTH time he has fought for a heavyweight championship with zero previous championship wins.
I’m surprised more people aren’t complaining about this the way we used to make fun of Kenny Florian and Urijah Faber and their undeserved shots. But I guess there’s not much to care about with how much the entire heavyweight division sucks right now.
He’s found a different way to not win the HW championship each time. We have:
Decision
Submission
No contest
Maybe this time he’ll lose by knockout and leave the UFC
Now that the big network deal is made Dana is happy to treat Jon Jones like a piece of shit. I believe the only reason Dana was treating Jones like a king recently was because he wanted to dupe network executives into thinking they would be getting some big fights from one of their biggest draws of all time.
