Does Jones Injury line him up for UFC 300?

[BrunswickMAF]

I don't know how long Jones will be out for but I think that this lines him up to headline UFC 300.

 

[R3us]

it better not, him or conor should not be headlining

 

[swimba]

Depends on which Jones takes over for the rest of the year.

 

[YEET]

Dana said surgery and 8 months so I believe no. Think 300 is around mid April.

No, imagine having the GOAT or the most popular fighter ever headlining, would be crazy...!!

Surgery, 8 months of watching Pav highlights nuking people in the first round, and then "Yeah guys I have nothing left to prove"

 

[YEET]

I think Jones retires because that ages Stipe a year and don’t think he wants to fight any of these new contenders.

They can just push it back. Easier than moving a card to another location on short notice.

 

[YEET]

They are not going to delay that PPV 2 months for his recovery. That’s an at best scenario.

Ducking Stipe…. Ducking Francis…

Does anyone else see a pattern here?

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

Dana said 8 months and apparently UFC still wants to do Jones/Stipe. The real shit show will be when Jones comes back and still fights Stipe for the HW title despite there being an interim title. Then he'll retire and Asp/Pav become the automatic "real" champ.

Jones will duck whoever wins the title to fight Stipe.

 

[Ozze]

8 months without USADA = 4 months. So maybe.

We gonna have 299.1, 299.2, 299.3, 299.4, etc PPVs until they can bring him back haha

 

[Ace70 V2]

We gonna have 299.1, 299.2, 299.3, 299.4, etc PPVs until they can bring him back haha

Or a shit ton more apex cards and fight nights

 

[Pechan]

Jones in another centenial card, what could possibly go wrong?

 

[Pascal Bergeron]

its lining up just right for no usada testing

 

[93confirmed]

I think Jones retires because that ages Stipe a year and don’t think he wants to fight any of these new contenders.

Its good segway for retirement. He can blame the injury recovery and duck the entire group of young guys. Won't really impact his legacy.

Why would the UFC not want one of it's two biggest stars to headline the 3rd centennial card?

One of the two of them WILL headline that card, so my advice is to cry now.

He's done.
