Jon is in a wholly unique situation and I think most people dont like acknowledging that.
Yes, Jones is very obviously dragging his heels about this fight, but he's doing everything he can to secure his future. He's fought for a LONG time and personally, It's my belief that if he watns 25 million dollars the ufc SHOULD give it to him. Jones is playing hard ball harder than he's ever had to before. This is absolutely his last ride and while we all want things to move along like normal, we have to acknowledge that jones is a 1 of 1 and there are no other fighters who have the pull that he should have. He's going to get more leeway and its completely reasonable that he does. the UFC just needs to pay the bill and all will be well.
