If Jon Jones gets banned for 4 years and retires, would you be happy or sad?

[Pierced7681]

If he gets four years he won’t retire he’ll go to Japan or Russia or somewhere with no athletic commission.

 

[AKA_Steve_B]

Not dancing around happy, but slightly enjoy the fact that another cheat gets hammered if it happens......

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Wrong. The guy I'm responding to set the precedent, did you even read what I was responding to?

You may not be happy, but that's partly due to the fact you don't seem to care if people are cheating sacks of shit. I actually care, and I want less cheaters in the sport, so by proximity not only am I happy Jon Jones is getting busted, I actually think it'll help MMA in the long run.

1. I specifically named the guy you were responding to and made mention I agreed with him.
2. Both he and I specifically mentioned that we think the punishment is right. Where then are you coming from when you suggest that we don't care about cheating?
3. The view you are espousing is relatively immature in my view. I'm thinking you are young and idealistic. Wait until you have kids. Then you see'll dozens of examples where punishment must be meted out for the long term good, but where it doesn't make you happy.

I would be in denial. Then angry. Then sad. Then acceptance, while still being sad and/or salty.

1. I specifically named the guy you were responding to and made mention I agreed with him.

Nah, sorry. Not an acknowledgment of what I'm saying to you, so let's try again:

Why are you accusing me of bringing up an extreme example, when he's the one talking about criminals, prison, and how he's not happy to see them sent away?

Really stop and think about this before you respond, I'm really curious on what you have to say without smoke screening, or bullshitting me.

12. Both he and I specifically mentioned that we think the punishment is right. Where then are you coming from when you suggest that we don't care about cheating?

Because you aren't happy to see cheaters caught / punished for cheating. There is a reason happiness is a synonym for pleased, and satisfied, because it insinuates a good cause was put into practice, and justice was served. Absolutely valid reasons to express pleasure, and satisfaction with the system that is operating as designed.

3. The view you are espousing is relatively immature in my view. I'm thinking you are young and idealistic. Wait until you have kids. Then you see'll dozens of examples where punishment must be meted out for the long term good, but where it doesn't make you happy.

I feel the same way about you? You can't even quote me without some kind of nuanced bullshit, and you have *zero* arguments against the reasoning I've provided for feeling the way I feel.

If you just want to say I sound young, and start ignoring the context of the quotes I'm addressing? Do you Inga, keep doing you.

 

[Thepaintbucket]

Mixed feelings.

If you want the sport to go on clean as possible it's necessary to punish and to punish to the fullest extent to ward people from doing drugs in the future. But on the other hand, seeing someone like Jon Jones who is one of the most talented and feared champions in history lose some of his best years sucks.

 

[Verace]

Are you actually fucking retarded?

Of course I'm happy about it. The guy is a parasite / cancer to the organization, a literal walking disaster that when he's not getting arrested for hit and runs, cocaine and other offenses? He's getting busted for steroids, and incapable of stringing 2x wins together without a failed test.

petty existance

i know its hard for you to cope with it my friend. but you must accept and stating working on change

look up stephen a. smith

Sorry, I missed this.

I'm just... Without words. Can anyone imagine the stupidity required to write something like this to another person you don't know?

 

[Mookie]

petty existance

I don't always criticize the existence of people, calling them petty, etc. But when I do? I make sure to spell it existance.

 

[Eli1015]

It sucks to be honest. I've never been a huge fanboy or anything. But for talent to be wasted like that is a shame. But I won't cry about it.

 

[My name is]

I'm over the guy, the division sucks anyways

 

[El Fernas]

Zero fucks given, the show must go on. Only a matter of time before another killer takes his place.

Hope this happens sooner, once DC retires the title will go to someone Jones, DC or both have already beaten, biggest paper champ ever, not beating the original champ, or DC who is the current champion.

why are you so angry? just because you hate yourself doesn't mean you need to take trivial things so seriously. take a deep breath and be thankful for the very few things you have to be thankful for

 

[fightfan84]

as an mma fan I wanna see the guy fight again

You've said it a lot better than I could have done it myself. I respect you a lot, you're one of the posters around here who make this forum an interesting place.

Thanks.

How did I fuck up? By pointing out how stupid you sound, combined with the fact you can't spell?

Only self loathing, self hating morons can relate to people like Jon Jones. I'm the exact opposite, and I'm celebrating in justice being served. Sorry that offends you, you'll grow up eventually.

 

[Simian Raticus]

I'm already quite accustomed to him not being around.

The show goes on.
