It's not.
He's going to run his mouth for month and month, annoy the fuk out of everyone though.
The mark of a paper champ.
Jones finished fights,
He isnt famous for wall/stall, LnP bullshit
Dude earned the belt, fought for it
DC is paper champ
Jones is now the Linear Champion. DC, the Paper one.
Am I wrong?
LOL Jones never lost,
Jones beat DC
DC is paper champion
DC was crying when he lost to Jones.
LOL Even DC said Jones body shots sapped all his cardio. Jones beat DC at his own friggin game and made him cry.
There's not a MMA fan on the planet that doesn't think Jon Jones is the best LHW on the planet....including Daniel Cormier. Jones will be back and the belt will go to the rightful owner when they fight. Just like every other title fight.
Post UFC 187, the whining about a new champion just looks like childish babble, with no objective to speak of.
Rightful champ by UFC's show must go on way of business.
In reality they should have held a mini tournament with the top 4. Even if DC won, he would have earned it.
Now he just looks like a paper champ, replacing the guy that dominated him.
Paper champs kill divisions.
Yeah, I'm sure you've never wanted something so bad you dedicated your entire life to achieving it.
If you think DC is a boring champion then you're nothing more than a boring UFC fan.
Get yourself educated and appreciate that DC is one of the best grapplers/wrestlers in the UFC and he's beaten plenty of fighters in devastating fashion.
Jones lost to his addiction and stupid behavior, I would say its even worse all things considered.
Ignorant fans think dc is a paper champ. The dc that fought tonight would beat jj.
It doesn't kill the division. If anything the absence of Jones opens up the division. Then, when he returns, he can fight the champ and the score can be settled. But no matter who the champ would be, they would have got it without having to beat Jones. But they can't just let him hold onto the title while suspending him indefinitely. The show must go on. It's not like the only good LHW fights were those with Jones. So they can still put on good fights. The division is far from dead because of this.
He finished a washed up Dan Henderson...and patrick cummings...lmao???
