Forgot the reason why Jones postponed the first fight with DC at their first meeting..some reason for an injury, but forgot which part of the body.

Anyways, makes me believe that he ducked DC the first time because he wasn't mentally prepared..now that got caught, I'm convinced he used it to prepare for DC.

Thoughts?

And to also add..he might've pulled a Melvin Guillard, using coke to make weight. I'm less convinced with that reason though.
 
I bet you he did
 
Here are the effects of cocaine:
Low to moderate doses
Some of the effects that may be experienced after taking cocaine include:
immediate rush, feelings of euphoria
feelings of invincibility
a sense of wellbeing
increased talkativeness or quiet contemplation and rapture
increased confidence and a feeling of invincibility
feelings of great physical strength and mental capacity
increased libido
anxiety, agitation and panic
paranoia
upredictable violent/aggressive behaviour
feeling more awake, reduced need for sleep
increased performance on simple tasks
enlarged (dilated) pupils
dry mouth
increased breathing rate
increased blood pressure and heart rate (after initial slowing)
reduced appetite
increased body temperature
increased strength and energy
indifference to pain and localised pain relief.

Just don't be surprised if he gets stripped for cheating!
 
Yeah he had a knee surgery to cover his coke use
 
I'd bet anything he's been doing coke since before he came to the UFC. So I doubt it very much.
 
He had legitimate knee surgery. However, I wonder if Jones' trip to Brazil in late November/early December had something to do with the positive test.
 
"I can do all things through cocaine, which strengthens me. Now who wants to bet I can't jump this here Bentley over that there ravine? Hold onto your rails..."
