I dont think they try to salvage that card.

They gonna try to force him to fight, with conor takin fights at 10 days.
Thats exactly why they shouldnt tho. rumble on short notice..

Tbh tho i would be more excited to see jones rumble 200

Mighty Mouse is a curse to all PPV cards. I swear every card this dude is on everything falls apart

It's not helped that he's boring as fuk and unapologetic about how he's not a draw

 

[Roman Brady]

Move the Jones fight to 200.

We don't know the extent of cormier's "injury" but I too sensed a ufc98 situation where Mir's knee "injury" was conveniently going to be ready in time for their centennial event

I'm afraid if they don't push this fight what will happen. Bones Jones hasn't fought in over a yr and yet still cnt keep his nose clean. If they give em a replacement like Rumble or ne1 and he fights and wins. He gets that fight chq and we may never see bones again unless it's court TV.

Push Bones Jones fight, keep em hungry for a fight and hopefully it's da only way to keep him out of trouble. Even though that barely is working.

That rumor is looking to be true. So it's either 200 or the NY card and that's way too long for me to see Jones

rumble says hes been training just in case somebody gets hurt

if hes good with it so should jones

jones needs to fight its been over a year

200 would be fine if GSP/Lawler doesn't happen. But their NY show isn't until Nov at the earliest. Way too long for Jones. And like someone said earlier DC has been putting off surgery for years. Who knows how severe the damage is now? Maybe Jones/Rumble for the interim belt makes sense

 

[LinusCaldwell]

I've been thinking out of all the current UFC champs Conor has the most glaring weakness and the biggest mouth

Jon Jones out here wishing DC for a healthy recovery
