This. I can't even imagine hating someone I don't even know personally. Jones is 25yrs old. Barely older than Samman and from my point of view comes across as much less egotistical than Josh has. I still don't hate either one of them.

Fighters don't want to be read by their opponents. But when your friends, its harder to hide that. Jones likes chael, but, how could you not...we get to see a side to chael as the real chael...and everyone says what a great person he is. He's just brilliant also, which is why he started marketing himself through some character he created.

So yeah, fighters like to keep a mist about them...what so wrong with that?
