It's a wrap B.

Jones going down in history with Lance Armstrong and Ben Johnson

 

[Chester McFloppy]

It's a wrap B.

Jones going down in history with Lance Armstrong, Tom Brady and Ben Johnson

What could have been.

 

[Barbados Slim]

@ sneaking in Tom Brady.

 

[smedroc]

Nice

 

[blackcease]

I haven't followed the intricacies of the testing and the substances taken. But I don't know what the alternative is.

Is someone trying to sabotage Jones?

Or is he really just a first class **** up?

Hard to believe the dude who came in talking about being a cop to get criminals and drugs off the streets wound up here.

But eventually actions speak louder than words.

Yeah I guess. I definitely can't give him the benefit of the doubt to think he's innocent, but the facts of the case are still weird as hell. Guess we'll just have to wait and find out what the full story is.

Pretty dangerous of Schaub to just throw out random theories like that, this is not something to play around with for some more podcast hits

Yeah kinda wild to throw that out there, but it is an interesting theory. I wonder how widespread those Cheque drops really are

So does DC get his belt back? Doesn't make sense for him to have to fight for something he lost in what became a NC

 

[Cashflow]

That bum lost! They should just have a tournament to crown a new champion.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

He's the rightful champ because he's beat the rest of the division but then lost to a repeat cheater

 

[smedroc]

Odezmir washing everyone bruh. Jones lucky he's done.

 

[Cashflow]

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Happy that dj got a deal. Wonder what it's worth

 

[doyung9]

...

 

[bware113]

I agree that the timeline for events seems odd AF. Especially for what he took, but it's hard giving my man the benefit of the doubt at this point. I want to believe someone set him up or something.

 

[cheachea]

He should try to go to Rizin in Japan. They don't care if you take steroids.

 

[shogun]

I don't even think Japan has an athletic commission. pride made up their own rules.

He's on UFC Tonight right now and said fight was ruled no contest and he has been reinstated as UFC LHW Champion.

Made a good point. The financials are a big difference if he fights as champ. So he is accepting it.

And **** it, he should. He played it right and the other guy tested positive for a substance 3 times when he was fighting D.C.

 

[jayt1202]

So do they make DC/Gus 2? Either that or so oezdemir are the only fghts that make sense.

 

[tiger energy]

So I'm reading in my news feed DC is reinstated as champ.

 

[dman14]

did jones pop after the first DC fight or was the failed test taken prior to the fight?
jones kind ****ed over DC at 200 with the payday. probably would've been his biggest check with the ppv shares

 

[spiderjericho]

did jones pop after the first DC fight or was the failed test taken prior to the fight?

He popped for coke prior to the first fight. Popped for the banned substance (forgot what it was) before the second fight.

[JCMojica24]

As he should be! Glad DC got his belt back.

 

[g money 87]

He popped for coke prior to the first fight. Popped for the banned substance (forgot what it was) before the second fight.

Test was taken before fight but he popped after

 

[keko jones]

Roid Jones vs Roid DC and Jones still washes DC.

I can't see DC beating him either way ...

But Jones is a dummy so f it ...

Still won't call DC a Champ ... just don't like dude but is a business and I would do the same. Maybe not i would ask Dana for a round robin bellator style for the belt ... let me earn it.
