I actually think that they are in an ok place at 205 pounds to lose him for a while right now. I also think that, potential profit loss not withstanding, Dana is probably ready to cut his ass so he can avoid the headaches that he brings to the table.Quote:

Dana won't cut Bones, unless Bones is in jail and can not fight for years. Remember how far out of his way he went to take care of Rampage after his hit-and-run craziness, with more hits and actual police chases and driving on flat tires and leaving the scene with a woman injured? Dana never even considered cutting him, and Jones is now a way more important fighter and a bigger draw.Quote:

:lol
the alleged bonesmobile, rental edition.
Currently a "free" man. No booze no drugs.
Judge lifted travel ban. Free on the 2500 bond mentioned above.
DA has 60 days to decide on charges.
So my guess is he gets the felony dropped and pleads to something with some probation and community service.
As for UFC 187 status my guess is he will still fight until the commission bans him
did they seriously not blood test him?
I doubt the fight happens even though I do hope I'm wrong on that. This is a serious offense and with Jones having repeated legal issues I'm not sure how UFC can just look past this even if the commission don't ban him.Quote:

lest we forget that the LHW division would do just fucking fine without jones. rumble + gus jockeying for the belt could be literal years of ppv sells.
Jones says nothing obv.

I'd expect a UFC decision soon especially if they strip him of the belt but I'm kind of surprised Reebok didn't cut him (yet).
Actually if Reebok can prove that he was wearing their shoes while he fled the scene of the crime on foot, Jones should get a bonus.Quote:

Grab a Snickers.

Piece of dumb shit.
Ill watch Cormier v Johnson, but I will not enjoy it.
My guess is Gustafson was offered the fight and declined.
lolfc... I'll just leave this here:

prepare your body for sonnen v rumble.
Rumble vs Cormier could be good but I like Rumble in that one as well.
Cormier is smart with his choice of words on this but obviously deep down he's not only beyond excited but thinking "fuck that asshole finally got what he deserved".

No no no no. I refuse to watch Sonnen unless he has a microphone in his hands.
Jon Jones
FIRED BY REEBOK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KZz-NYpqJsQuote:
Jon Jones is OUT at Reebok -- with reps for the sports apparel company telling us they're 86'ing the UFC star over his recent arrest in New Mexico.
A rep for Reebok tells TMZ Sports ... 'In light of recent events, we have made the decision to terminate our contract with Jon Jones, effective immediately.'
Jones has been with Reebok since December -- when the company signed both Jon and Ronda Rousey to big sponsorship deals.
The news comes in the wake of the UFC suspending Jones indefinitely and stripping him of his title after he was arrested for felony hit and run in Albuquerque.
and Reebok gives Bones the ol' heave-ho.
Odds on the new UFC187 main event: Daniel Cormier -145 vs Anthony Johnson +115
It was only a short matter of time Reebok cut Jones even if UFC didn't suspend and strip him of the title.
The guy has issues and even after all his legal shit is settled you can bet a 24 hour program in rehab program won't be enough for them to let him back in UFC.
Stacking on Cormier at -145.
Thats unbelievably easy money.
This has to be as big of a fall from grace as Tiger Woods. Granted nowhere near the money, but in terms of power and prestige.

This is basically unprecedented. No one who is a professional in anything who reached Jones' level of success has ever, to my recollection, displayed such brazenly simple minded judgement and egregiously criminal behavior.
I guess you need more than 24 hours in rehab to fix ur life
Obviously not a big NFL fan.Quote:

Jones isn't in the "Tiger Woods Division" of the Athlete "Off the Field Fail" League (Tiger Woods is gossip stuff type of fail; like Michael Jordan getting caught cheating on his wife with a white woman AND his dad getting killed for "possibly" Michael's gambling golf debts, all in the same week....or Michael Phelps taking bong hits a week after winning gold medals).Quote:

Jones is in the "Michael Vick Division", a case where an individual fucks up over and over and over again, affecting the people around him and even unsuspecting communities, until he finally fucks up (and gets caught) so bad he loses everything, BUT is still so amazing at athletics that he'll get second and third and 69th chances and will probably last too long past his prime just because he owes lawyers and child support too much money.
At least he didn't kill a guy(s) like Aaron Hernandez.
In b4 Cormier gets hurt.
Here's the Wrestling Observer write-up, with a few details I hadn't heard, such as the car full of kids that got hit.
.........Officer Thomas Benavidez of the Albuquerque Police Department arrived on the scene. The female victim, Vanessa Sonnenberg, a 30-year-old pregnant woman, said she was crossing through an intersection when the Silver Buick ran a red light and crashed into the drivers’ side of her Honda. The crash knocked one of the cars into a third car.
Sonnenberg was complaining first of wrist pain, told the officer she was pregnant and felt like she was about to pass out. She said her arm was hurting all the way up and that she had called her husband he was going to take her to the hospital.
The third car was driven by a 38-year-old male, Falsen Cambre who had three children, ages eight through ten, in the car with him.
He said he was at a red light and saw the Honda driven by Sonnenberg going through a green light going East and saw the silver Buick turn directly into her red Honda, crashing into the driver’s side of the car, and knocking the Honda into his vehicle, damaging the front end, and the silver Buick came to a stop.
A witness, Bruce Benson, said he ran to check on the driver of the silver Buick and asked if he needed help.
“The driver continued to ignore me over and over.”
He said the driver eventually got out of the silver Buick and jogged to the top of a dirt hill. He said that a few minutes late, the driver came back to the vehicle.
Benson said he told the driver, “You should sit down in case you’re hurt. Police are on the way.” He said the driver continued to ignore him, grabbed cash from his vehicle, stuck it in his pockets and ran from the area, running past him and into a gated community.
........
“Jon Jones was wearing a nice white polo style shirt, with either dark jeans or slacks on.”
......
Witnesses said a black male wearing a white button up shirt and dark pants starting running up a hill, then came back to the vehicle, grabbed a large wad of cash, put it into his pants, jumped a fence and ran off. Several officers came to attempt to locate the person, who an off duty officer immediately identified as Jones, given that Jones is well known in the city. The officers never found him.
....
The female victim was sent to a local hospital and treated for both a broken arm and a broken wrist, but the belief is the fetus was not harmed. Officers went into the abandoned vehicle and found it was owned by Enterprise Rent-a-Car and found a marijuana pipe with marijuana in the pipe. The car was registered to Jonathan Jones. There was also MMA information in the car.
Meh he is still not at Tyson status IMO. Mike Tyson's meltdown is pretty damn bad and he was in his prime when sent to prison.Quote:

Until Jones converts to Islam or bites Gus's ear off he is not close.
Oh fuck wow.. you're right, Tyson was bigger. Case closed.
