zaksame Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 That is the UFC's problem it was NEVER Jones duty to make sure they get paid. Jones does not get paid or work for those other fighters. We just finished hearing Silva say he would not fight Weidman but that doesn't seem to cause the same tirade out of Dana.The TRUTH is Dana is worried about the money the UFC is losing,he does not care one little bit about the fighters.IF the UFC did they wouldn't be paying fighters chump change like 5k or 8k or 10k. Here is thing the UFC is not letting on,what if say Ryan Jimmo asked to take the fight?What if Randy Couture asked for the fight ,does that mean just because someone stepped up the fight deserves to go on?Chael did NOT earn that fight and it is NOT a title fight,so it is no different than sticking anyone in there.How about stick Tito Ortiz or Forrest griffin in there?

megaman Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Dana and the UFC are greedy they're the ones to blame for this not Jones, why put together a card with only one good (recognizable fighters), fight on it?

ultimatefightingchamp Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 This was once a main event for ****'s sake! Rampage was a former champ and Hamill is the only man to beat Jones so I don't see a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juice64011 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Castillo and a few others are tweeting how bummed they are that they can't fight. Hopefully the UFC still pays them since many will have to wait 3-4 months before they get a fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMAJess Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 First of all, how is it Jones' fault that Henderson got injured? Second, how is it Jones' fault that the card was so thin that without the main event it wasn't even worth showing? Do I think Jones should've accepted the fight with a different opponent? Yes, definitely. But it doesn't make it his fault that the entire card got cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would give you a high five. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this card is so bad that not even the co-main event could step in. The UfC is going to have to start rethinking their strategies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoomPatrol Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Jones had the opportunity to save the card (and other fighters? salaries) and all he had to do it take on an even easier opponent (small, not prepared, even more 1-dimensional). But no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
