    It doesn't really matter what Jones comes across as or how he remorseful he is.


    The commission said he never cheated.

    You're still purely making accusations and have absolutely no facts to back anything up. It's your opinion that he gives zero *, it's your opinion that he's a liar and a sociopath.

    Same but Rogan has said it was his decision, his mistake and goes against everything he believes in. He apologised. DC will probably be on the podcast soon.

    Stupid, stupid, decision but at least he's owning it.

    I get the feeling he was hoping for a retirement speech but he was only standing at that point because he is a hard *, a normal fighter would still be on the mat with tweety birds circling their head.

    Bad decision and awkward as well.

    It's just the double standards. Especially after all his preaching about it after that Overeem interview.

    I like Rogan and fair play for apologising, but you can't just pick and choose when it suits. Especially when DC was in a far worse state than Alistair.

    I understand why he done it though. Heat of the moment, he wanted to give Cormier a chance. He knows it was wrong.

    Imagine how long that list would be if he had been active for the last few years. Also Hamil would be on there if not for a non sensicle rule

    GSP to fight Whittaker after Bisping. I think he beats Bisping and then Whittaker KO's him.

    I think he may struggle with ring rust/size difference personally but I hope not.

    I honestly think Bisping wins that.

    I don't even like Bisping but I hope he wins it.

    Tony Ferguson v Kevin Lee for the interim belt at 216.

    Good fight, I hope Ferguson beats him to a pulp.

    I'm growing to like Lee. Ferguson annoys me a wee bit with the way he talks. Was always backing him against Khabib though.

    Ferguson should wreck him, Lee has a bright future ahead of him but he is not ready for Ferguson who is arguably one of the best fighters on the roster.

    I think he's a racist * that thinks he's a lot better than he is but Ferguson will have to be careful, it should be a great build up a lot of trash talk.
