Petition to Strip Jon Jones of the title on Change.org EXCEEDS 150,000 SIGNATURES

[Phisher]

The UFC is a goddamn joke, who even gives a shit at this point. Titles are largely meaningless, cards are ass, fuck DFW, fuck ESPN, fuck 'em!

It's only going to get worse after that hedge fund bought out Endeavor and TKO.

Even more watered down cards and prices for everything jacked through the roof.

Man, this is the one fight everyone wants in mma. Fucking sad how it can't be put together. Can MMA get one huge fight?

 

[r-harper-1]

No, he really isn't. He is refusing to fight the clear number one contender.

He won the title against a non-champion and then defended it against a semi-retired part time fighter.

There are two HWs with titles in the UFC, and only one of them is actually willing to fight.

Jon Jones has somehow managed to damage his legacy by moving up and winning a second belt. If he doesn't fight Aspinall he will forever be remembered as a duck.

He has no claim to being the best HW in the UFC. He has two wins against non-champions.

Blame the promotion

Blame the promotion

Jones is literally on social media saying that he doesn't care about getting stripped.

He's made his position about getting a massive payday or retiring clear.

This is all on the UFC.

"I want 20 million"

"Okay...fine"

"Uhh, I meant 30 million!"

"Jon, dont be unreasonable here..."

"30 million!!!"

"Ugh...okay fine. Thirty million and we are gonna set it up for-"

"A hundred gillion bazillion!"

"Jon, for crying out loud. Just say you're scared of Tom and don't want to fight him. C'mon."

"You cheapskates! So typical. I'm walking, this is ridiculous! Won't pay me what I'm worth..."

Dude, it's clear that he doesn't want to fight Aspinall. It's been clear since last year.

This ain't boxing. The UFC could've taken their belt and moved on a while ago.

To be fair i doubt the UFC has offered anything close to those numbers, having said that, for Jones its not about the money, saying he wanted "fuck you money" to do it was just an expression to say he wants more than whatever they would actually pay him.

Dana fucked up the whole Ngannou situation, now this.

Yeah I'm using hyperbole but whatever they offered, his # would magically be juuuust a bit higher.

And he could've just vacated as soon as he defended vs Stipe.

Honestly I agree though, most of the blame lies with the UFC.

Absolving the guy of all blame is just weird.

Attachments pretends he doesn't then likes a post doing exactly that.

Both UFC and Jon have a share of the blame. To pretend one party has none is objectively false.

I guess, but we know Jones is a selfish asshole. Nobody should have ever expected anything else from him. The UFC being so shortsighted is the bigger issue.

At one point he said he would do it for "fuck you money", so well, they could give him exactly that, or at least make a public offer the fans would say "well, thats some fuck you money, right there", its weird how nothing has been really said here, they have not thrown Jones under the bus one bit.

Exactly.
