I'm more convinced than ever that Jon Jones is suspended

Ridiculous question.

Why wouldn't they is the only viable question.

It hurts the reputation of the UFC to divulge that.

The same way they hid the info before and changed venues for John? Or the way they hid the Connor behavior by replaying him attacking the bus over and over in their Promos ?

They do whatever's convenient for them and their revenue at any given time.

Reporting Jon popping again isn't good for business.

But correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Jon done something that disables testing him right now? Like a fake retirement or something.

I think Jon popped again, but I could be wrong. I just don't think reporting him doing it again would be in their best interest.

He’s still being tested.
 
That’s not an answer to the question.

I suppose it's a policy to protect their reputation.

But reporting every failed test by their big names isn't good for business.

And as far as I know, there's new rules stating it doesn't have to be revealed?
 
Ah, so cute. The haters are it again so they can give each others likes.
 
He’s still being tested.

Oh okay, well it's definitely possible he is not suspended and did not fail any test.

But I don't see why he's turning down huge money against Francis when Francis may lose the title before he gets a shot at him. I think the Francis fight is bigger money than any other HW.

Maybe he just doesn't feel comfortable with his body yet.

All sanctions are reported.
 
Why would they hide that info?
To give the fighter time to fight usada verdict. Because usada can sometimes be wrong like with Nate diaz and yoel Romero so fighters have a chance to prove their innocence before their rep gets destroyed forever
 
Hiding the suspension would be against the rules, if they were going to go that far they would have just thrown out the test and not suspend him.
 
That’s mostly spread by Jones haters.

Ah, I see.

I'm not a Jones hater, but I've definitely wanted to see him lose. I mostly pull for underdogs.

I understand he has a definite case for GOAT, though. Would love to see him at HW and if he did well there, I don't think I could deny his GOAT status.
 
So you’re basing this on what exactly? Wishful thinking? If someone hasn’t fought in a while, chances are they have a suspension? Or just Jones?
In general I agree but Jones is the one fighter who really got away with everything and has the most bulletproof UFC protection ever. Beginning from his drunk driving to the PED cases with crazy low "punishment" most of it screamed corruption. With anyone else I would have a hard time believing it but Jones kinda invites such ideas.

Of course they could, he is the most prolific drug cheat in mma history.

Few could convince themselves its just a coincidence.
 
Not a great idea for a public company to blatantly violate their public policies for the sole purpose or protecting a single athlete in private. And usada is a non profit on top of it.

The UFC are a public company?
