Deafening Silence from Gustafsson's Camp

[Concrete Whale]

If he is serious about continuing his career and looking towards the belt, and the retirement was just April Fool's, why hasn't he stepped up?

 

[Blayt7hh]

How do you know he hasn't? The UFC is working it out chill and let it play out before you sling accusations

 

[own1997]

He clearly hasn't been training. I'd prefer fighters to step up but it's their decision. Rumble said he was ready, Gustafsson didn't. Rumble should be the one to step up if he's a man of his word.

ariel tweeted that jones vs gus was not an option

 

[IntelligenceQuo]

Scared

 

[Ceez]

Isn't gus supposed to have a surgery soon or just did?

How do you know they havnt been on the phone to the UFC?

Or is everything decided over instagram nowadays?

Aleks the primadonna has been given enough gifts.

 

[Nightmaree]

should have been Gus/OSP, but since Rumble didnt want short notice against Jones -> Jones/OSP is a good match up

What makes him a primadonna. Always found him pretty well grounded.

 

[Melas Chasma]

He isnt coming back before summer.

 

[Concrete Whale]

Fans are all asking him on Twitter/Instagram if he's going to ask for the fight and he's pretending not to notice lol.

steellakecityFight Jones bro. He fought you basically unprepared now it's your turn.

 

[EXOICHO]

honestly wouldn't surprise me if Jones turned it down

 

[TheWobbler]

Gus is on a break from MMA, he said on helwanis show hes lost a bit of motivation. He won't fight til end of year.

 

[BigNuggetIce]

Why tf Would he step up when he hasn't been training & if he loses to Jones it basically means he'll never get another shot at the title while Jones is champ. When you're facing a p4p great like Jones you gotta do it right.

the gift of being robbed by the judges for the title in the first place.

 

[Death By Samson]

JBJ is arguably the best fighter in the world. Why would anyone want to face him without a full camp?

 

[Hogey]

a lot of people are assuming shit but no one knows the condition of gus, if he has been training or is fit for a fight in 3 weeks.

Mark Hunt took a title shot at 7500' on 3 weeks' notice when he wasn't in camp and was over 300lb. He also just asked for a top 5 opponent although 3 of them have already beaten him. Contrast that with Gus's attitude and it speaks volumes. Not hating just commentating
