Fair play to Jon Jones for rejecting Chael Sonnen.

Hahhahahah...it's Chael Sonnen who was supposed to replace Hendo. Guess what though...JBJ turns down the fight.
As of now the fight is cancelled. JBJ vs Lyoto Machida Saturday Sept. 22nd on the Toronto card.
WOW...crazy!
Listening to the radio broadcast. For the link PM me.

LMFAO Chael on fighting Jones: "I'll fight him tonight, I'll fly out there right now."
Event cancelled.
Jones declined the fight with Chael on 8 days notice, Dana made sure to call him out on that.

Am I the only one that thinks the UFC knew Hendo was hurt so they rushed Chael into a fight at 205 and got him on twitter for this? I mean Shale was going back and forth and unsure, all of a sudden they make a fight that makes no sense, Shale v Forrest and then Sonnen is mocking Jones on twitter for no reason. Seems like the UFC was prepping for this.
So is Dan ever going to get a title shot?

No wonder they had to cancel the whole card, they built it around Jones-Hendo and the rest of the card was straight bollocks.

Sonnen doesn't deserve a title shot at 205lbs anyways... this would have been the THIRD title shot he talked his way into.

There's some truth to it. Chael personally knows Hendo so he might have knew something...
Did Dana just say Greg Jackson is a "sports killer."
