Jones fought 4 times last year.We should give him a break!!
I don't like him,but he is the only champ that is constantly fighting.
Cruz and GSP didn't even fight this year.
Silva,JDS and Aldo only fought once this year.
Jones had 4 fights last year and WOULD have fought yesterday if Hendo wasn't injured.
The other champs are 9/10 times injured or want to wait 5 years to take fights.At least this guy will put on championship fights for us.Who cares if he turned down 1 fight.It wasn't him who pulled out and he'll fight 20 days later.
The UFC and the fans should be thankful that at least 1 champ is fighting regularly.

Nobody forced him to sign up for UFC 151. But I believe a man should honor his word, once he gives it.

TS, I agree with you. Both Dana and many MMA fans have a very short-term memory and are all about "what have you done for me lately" mentality. I wish Jones the best of luck, and hope that this undeserved disdain from outsiders only fuels his fire, and inspires him to hone his craft en route to becoming a living legend.

Mehhh, Don't make excuses for him. He will fight next month, then probably fight 1 or 2 more times this /next year. It's good he is taking no time off, makes me respect him more.

we should open up a Jon Bones Jones forum with the amount of attention he's getting.
Jones is the fighting champion, the Ric Flair of the Octagon. Haters be damned
