In this COVID ESPN era these old timers who collects a big check makes 0 sense to keep around. They're good for bringing in crowds but there are no crowds and ESPN are already paying them a set number for X amount of events / year if I understood it correctly. And they won't be big PPV draws anyways..


Here's a clip of Dana getting asked about JDS and Jacare where he gives a nice political answer which pretty much sounds like "yeah they're gone"

JDS has looked so damn awful for awhile now.
 
yea i think it's fair to say. jacare 41 and expensive fighter
 
Probably time to move on. JDS I think we all knew and the oddsmakers obviously knew. He is just about done and doesn't really earn that paycheck anymore.

The Jacare finish was pretty shocking TBH and I think it is obvious he needs to probably step away as well.
 
And I hate to say it, but Ferguson is getting long in the tooth as well, having had two rough losses in a row where he took a lot of damage. It may be time for almost a wholr generation of fighters to go job hunting.
 
JDS I could potentially see being kept around like Shogun fighting mid level guys playing to his fanbase but I suspect the UFC would want a paycut for that.
 
JDS is gone. No way he keeps Junior. He gets mauled now and its been rough af to watch. As a fan I cant tune in to a JDS fight anymore.

Jacare is a business decision. Costs too much, kind of a draw, but it is downhill from here. The new era of the UFC is all about keeping content coming without relying on super stars.

Jacaré and JDS are done.
 
Looks like JDS is now afraid of being hit, srsly. Right before the knockdown, JDS didn't even try to clinch, try to defend, he just wanted to run away from Gane, based on his body posture. JDS is done.

As a JDS fan, I agree wth this post. And I think that those Cain beatings were the end of JDS as we knew it.
 
I always love JDS, he is a cool cat and was so good in his prime. But yeah its best to call it a day now, its really sad to see him keep getting finished, and he never loses by submission or decision, its always KO/TKO.. I don't want to see it anymore.
 
They are gonna wait for Aldo to lose next week to make it a triple threat.

That's kinda how he 'fights' now. He runs away and gets tagged and TKO'd while he's doing it, hands down for some reason. He's been cooked for a while. Time to become a coach
 
Poor JDS is becoming Chuck Liddell at the end of his career. I hope he retires. He had a great career, but his chin is not the same anymore. Retire while you still have a working brain. A class act though, and I have really enjoyed watching him fight!
 
Just make JDS vs Arlovski and then cut both.

I would keep Jacare. He hasn't looked that terrible lately.
