Media Shavkat exposes Kamaru 'n' Colby for empty callouts, Colby responds

I guess it's just the way you interpret things. Is Jon Jones ducking Aspinall or just "managing his career wisely"? I'd say both are true.
I wouldn't say jones is ducking aspinall at all. Jones can decide when his career ends. When jones vs Stipe was made, Aspinall wasn't even in the title picture yet.

Jones and Stipe are handling their unfinished bussiness, a fight that was signed to happen before aspinall had a title.

No idea why anyone is saying jones is ducking him. I'm 100% certain Jones has never been offered that fight.... not sure how he can duck a fight he wasn't offered....

I think Jones has the right to pick his retirement fight and at the time he picked this fight, Tom wasn't relevant.

calling Jon jones a duck is incredibly obtuse at this point. He's fought every single top contender at his weightclass the whole time he was there. Then fought the highest ranked HW availible in his HW debut.

He can't pick ONE fight out of his entire career of like 15+ title fights? Some people are just petty I guess.

As once Colby fan, one of the very few here, I just wish he shut the fuck up now and just fight instead or retire.
 
The thing about colby (that most dont want to admit) is that he's incredibly good at managing his career risks. he takes easy fights when they are valuable wins. He's not looking for hard fights that are valuable wins. He's only lost in his title fights because with his non title fight's he's been more selective (since first fighting for the title, before that'd he'd do whatever).

got woodley on the slide at the right time, Smart.
same thing with masvidal.big name coming off back to back title fights that got colby another title fight. Smart pick.

He'll take the fight with shavkat if offered, because it's actually worth the risk if an interim title and potential PPV points are involved ( I made a thread about this last week, Im sure you remember)
Very insightful take, thanks.
 
I'm not sure. Part of me believes colby's story that he asked and they said "lol no."


Maybe the UFC was in deep negotiation with someone else but it fell thru.

Consider this:

Out side of colby and usman, Leon is getting back surgery, Garry is booked with Buckley, and JDM isn't ready to fight yet after his arm injury.

It's going to have to be colby or usman.... unless it's geoff neal or micheal morales
Yeah it's hard to say. Confusing situation. According to Shavkat both Colby and Usman are on some bullshit.

Then again there might be some information Shavkat simply missed.
 
Dude this is so cringe! Imagine simping for a draft dodging coward. “These colors don’t run” welp unless they have bone spurs and are a silver spoon fed bitch. Colby ain’t fighting Shav, he would destroy him.

Your username and avatar tell me all I need to know about you.
 
Seems to me that typing ‘n’ is more trouble than just typing “and”.
 
Agree but not a chance Colby takes that fight
The only way I see him possibly taking this fight is if it's for the interim belt which he'd delusionally see as the real belt and walk around like he's the real champ if he can actually pull it off
 
Agree but not a chance Colby takes that fight
lol we all know colby wouldn't dare take that fight


Why do you people keep saying this? What is your logical backing for any fighter coming off a loss to NOT take a title fight when offered?

you guys really let your discontent for colby cloud your better Judgement.

because if colby wants this fight this fight would already be made

ufc is desperately searching for a replacement opponent to avail
colby is easy money for shavkat
