    Hendo KO's him anyway.

    Bones Jones is Ducking Hendo.

    Smart move by Jones.

    UFC 151 has been canceled after an injury to light heavyweight contender Dan Henderson forced him to pull out of the main event against champion Jon Jones.

    Jones would tell Hendo how he would knock him out and then do it exactly the way he said.

    What a Pussy. I wish they could of just made it an all free card on FX though and given ticket buyers a partial refund. I imagine they'd lose a lot less money then they are going to now. Feel bad for the guys who actually need the money to pay bills.

    Dana White: I don't know what to expect from Jon Jones anymore. He just selfishly made a terrible decision that affects a lot of people.

    "I'm stunned," White told Yahoo! Sports on Thursday. "We've never had a situation where this happened before, where a champion wouldn't step up to fight."


    "Chael's been out there talking all this crazy [expletive] about Jones, but he proved that he not only talks the talk, he walks the walk," White said. "I offered the fight to a couple of guys, and believe me when I tell you, nobody wants to fight Jon Jones on [short] notice. Nobody. But when I called Chael, that crazy [expletive] said, 'Not only will I fight him, but I'll get on a plane and fight him at Mandalay Bay tonight, if that's what you want.' "



    Never liked Chael Sonnen, but tough not to like him now.

Our livelihood and we survive by fighting and all the hard work those 20 other fighters put in are goin to waste utterly disgusted"

    It's nuts how much shit Dana talks when he gets emotional (which is all the time). What happened to Shogun supposedly refusing to fight Glover? I'm sure there's a tonne of other incidents where Dana's said "x refused to fight y".

    It is shitty though.

    Rumour is that all the other contenders were asked before Sonnen but they all declined. Why did they decline you ask? Because they all cycle roids and other illegal substances so they would fail the drug test.

    At least Sonnen (with his doctors certificate for low testosterone) isn't going above and beyond what he is allowed.

    And Jones just lost quite a bit of credibility and marketability with refusing to fight.
