How can u promote Bones Jones in movies and signing autographs for kids with his multiple run jus with the law and drug use?
his run ins with the law would prevent him from appearing in movies? Funny thing is his misdemeanors and escapades barely made news outside of the mma sphere to play a baddie in a Jason Statham flick isn't so far out there.
Anderson wldve gotten movie and TV roles here if his English were better. That's the problem with Brazilian Champs for ufc the promoting and casual fan marketing push only goes so far.
his lack of English was the same excuse I heard for why he wasn't more popular before chael, my thing is its the fight game, a dude that can't communicate in the common spoken language but is a bad ass fighter sells itself and just adds to the mystique. Kareem Abdul jabar's character in game of death didn't need to say shyt didn't make him any less scary. People just harp about the language barrier but it could have been worked around if the right ppl wanted to do something the truth is they didnt

shyt, that's crazy. dude doesn't really need to take any fight since rda's injury, let alone a kind of pointless one (for him) 2 weight classes up. gotta give conor props for that i guess.

weird fight, but i'm definitely down for the fukkery. :blessed:
If he is getting what people speculate PPV wise he ain't turning down the $.

Loom at that cerro ne fight last wk 20 secs into da fight the fans are chanting USA USA, ain't no Brazilian gettin major movie deals man. Sad but truth cous they deserve it.
Bones was well on his way before the run-ins. I don't think that's a legit reason in this case.

If this muthafukker can make 170 what the fukk is he doing at FW? If memory serves me correctly Nate has only been finished by strikes once, I wouldn't count him out so easily.
He isn't going back to FW. Dude looked liked hell cutting to that last time.
