Benson Henderson ‏@BensonHenderson

For all the ppl who don't understand the SPORT of MMA (@ufc)...ask an NFL team to play the Superbowl vs a not worthy opponent...


Benson Henderson ‏@BensonHenderson

Sorry fans but this is a big $ business & making the right choices can be difference between kids college tuition paid to MCHammer.


Benson Henderson ‏@BensonHenderson

So please quit disparaging my boy @jonnybones...it's EASY to say u'd put it all on the line but he actually has & does...#respect homie


Mighty Mouse

Regarding the addition to Jon Jones on UFC152...It doesn't change anything for me. I'm fighting Joeseph Benevidez on UFC 152 in Toronto on September 22nd in the first UFC Flyweight Championship bout in the history of the company. I'm focused and determined to become the first UFC Flyweight champion and take my place in history. The added benefit I get from having Jon Jones on the card along side of us, is that I have the opportunity to turn every Jon Jones fan into a "Mighty Mouse" fan and a fan of our Flyweight weight division. Welcome to UFC 152 Mr. Bones Jones, I hope you and whoever is across the ring from you can keep up with the 2 fastest fighters on the planet! See you in Toronto #teammighty


Benson Henderson ‏@BensonHenderson

Sorry to disappoint...RT @sicwhite: @BensonHenderson Wow... this is disappointing to read. A fighter should fight.


Ulysses Gomez ‏@uselessgomez

HUGE CONGRATS to @sonnench on being a 2 time @UFC Champ! 185 and 205! Congrats brother!”


Cub Swanson ‏@CubSwanson

Hey @danawhite Please! Don't bump me from the main card �� I always come to fight @ufc #UFC152


Benson Henderson ‏@BensonHenderson

I respect his decision, know it was tough to make...RT @That_Hal: @BensonHenderson I am kinda shocked you are taking up for him.


Joe Rogan ‏@joerogan

I am completely bewildered that Jon Jones didn't accept the fight with Chael Sonnen. Never saw that coming in a million years.


Joe Rogan ‏@joerogan

Now the entire UFC card is scrapped because Jones didn't accept a fight with a 185lb'er who is completely out of shape. WOW. Just wow.

chael sonnen ‏@sonnench

30 min to cement your legacy. Champ or Coward? I make a lot more than you do... Show up in 8 days I'll give you my purse.


chael sonnen ‏@sonnench

Times up








Dana White Quotes






It's difficult to fight JBJ on 8 days notice, but one guy did, he said "he'll fly to Las Vegas TONIGHT and fight him, he wanted the fight bad. As of 8pm tonight, we had a fight, but the one thing I thought would never happen is that JBJ said "I don't want to fight Sonnen". "One of the pound for pound" best fighters turning down a fight.


I've been up all night, he knew the event would be cancelled and what would happen.


I can accept why Machida didn't take the fight, he was on a plane to Brazil when we called him


His coach Greg Jackson said "taking the fight would be the biggest mistake of your career".... WOW. Chael Sonnen is an 185er who said he would fight the supposed "3rd P4P fighter" in the world. Greg Jackson is a FUCKING SPORT KILLER


Dan does not need surgery as far as I know, rotary problems


Tito Ortiz was the most difficult guy to work with and he has NEVER turned down a fight


This is the first event to ever be cancelled in UFC history and the first champion to avoid a fight


UFC 152 will be UFC 151


I always laugh when fighters say "they're businessmen".... no you're not, you're a fighter

It's a MAJOR MAJOR deal, we lose shit loads of money


Jon Jones refused to fight ANYONE on that date


Everyday when I get out of bed, there is crazy shit I have to deal with


Jon Jones vs Machida will headline over Mighty Mouse vs Benavidez because the heaviest guys are always the headliners


Me and Lorenzo are both disgusted


Chael is a lunatic, he called me and said he would fight him at any place any date


Chael was excited! He told me he was a "mental midget". He told me to tell Jones that there wont be any spinning back fists, Chael only falls once! (laughs)


I don't know why a P4P great would turn down a fight... I don't know


Chael probably would have to beat 3 guys before he got a title shot originally, but the guy delivers and the guy steps up and I really respect that


We have to cancel billboards in New York, ALL ads, it's a MASSIVE MASSIVE hit.


250 people have been busting their ass promoting this fight not just for Jones but for the fans too


Good for you Jon Jones that you have a lot of money but there's guys who need to feed their families because "you don't feel like it" or whatever the fucking reason is



I can tell you this right now, if he turns down Machida, we'll have another conference call TODAY

Ariel: about what?

Dana: Ariel come on, quit asking me stupid questions



I've got a whole roster of guys that would fight if I said the fight was TONIGHT, those are the guys I respect and those are the guys who BUILT THIS SPORT

You forgot Chael's comments.
Chael: I was going to go gangbusters if he accepted the fight and teach him how to drive afterwards.

Benson's remark about the Super Bowl was beyond stupid. Football teams play whoever is in front of them.

In fact, if anything, they'd rather play an easier team who had no time to prepare. Especially if it paid more money and didn't fuck thousands of fans and a bunch of fighters out of their money.
