The last person to know the relationship is ending is always the first to say it was their idea when it happens!
I defend Jones a decent amount but he was already pushing the envelope when he said the stare-down cost him his Nike deal and then said Nike wasn't really looking to pursue MMA anyway. While not specifically mutually exclusive as the former could have sped up the timetable on the latter, it was really walking the line on what is truthful. This not only crosses it IMO but does so with a running start!
